Desperate Help with Axillary Hyperhidrosis.?

Hello. I am a seventeen year old girl suffering from this medical problem. It is totally socially and emotionally dehibilitating and I've had it for about five years.





For me, this consists of extreme excessive underarm sweat. There is no odor to it, just moisture, and you can imagine how horribly embarassing it is. I was wondering if there is anyone out there who has had the same problem and managed to get a fix?





I've used various powerful anti-perspiratants (Certain-Dri, Maxim and Secret Clinical Stregnth) with virtually zero results. No decrease in the amount of sweat whatsoever.





I suppose I have an extreme case; I sweat no matter what I am wearing, what I am doing and no matter what the temperature is.





I've heard of people using BOTOX treatments and some people getting Endoscopic thoracic sympathectomy. If worse comes to worst I might give Botox a try, but I've heard bad things about ETS.





Someone give the best 18th birthday present ever and help me fix this problem.

Desperate Help with Axillary Hyperhidrosis.?
Hi , right lets calm down and get in to the real world BOTOX is a toxin and if go`s wrong you wind up paralyzed. Now thats not the right thing to happen to a young girl, is it?. So let`s concertate and focus on what we can do in a safe way..
Reply:Hyperhidrosis can be caused by food allergies, or a mineral/vitamin deficiency. I had it for a long time before learning this.





Check out this article about hyperhidrosis, grains, and sugars. Scroll about halfway down the page.

I had hyperhidrosis and other symptoms for many years. I tried all the usual treatments including ETS surgery, prescriptions, antiperspirants, botox, etc. The surgery was most helpful but several years later hyperhidrosis began to return.





This year I was diagnosed with food allergies due to celiac disease. I eliminated wheat, dairy, and sugar from my diet. I stopped all prescriptions and began taking supplements for B vitamins and magnesium.

Reply:For me, Hydroderm is not a complete substitute for Botox. Hydroderm does however work well for me in many


places, and is certainly a lot cheaper. It's also a lot safer in my opinion. I found some good basic info


at this site that got me started:

Good luck.
