Acute and chronic heat exposure event. However, the dynamics of the recovery form EHS varies and might be longer than 8 weeks, which will be reflected in the HTT response. Therefore, in any case of an abnormal response during the HTT, with no apparent cause, it is recommended to repeat the test several weeks afterwards, in order to refute (or support) the diagnosis of heat intolerance. 419
