Jenny, do you think I could use Maxim Sensitive wipes for non-facial sweating? Or would it be better if I dealt with excessive sweat on non-sensitive skin with regular Maxim Wipes? If you used other types of wipes from this brand, please let me know. Because, as you just illustrated, it can be tricky to listen to random reviews online, or even…[Read more]

Hi Florence!

I’ve just read your hyperhidrosis story and in one place you wrote:

I wanted something that will cure me – something that will let me forget that I ever had hyperhidrosis.

So, what I’d like to know is: did this wish of yours come true? Did miraDry really help you forget you have (or should I say had?) hyperhidrosis ?

Apart f…[Read more]

I did some decent amount of research on miraDry a while back, and unfortunately, now it definitely is not an option for sweaty hands.

To make things simple, I looked up a clear explanation online. Here is the link.

The surgeon basically says that in order to treat your sweat glands, miraDry first uses vacuum to separate your skin from your…[Read more]

The more I talk to them about it, the more supportive they are. They weren’t at first, something that made me sad and only fed my anxiety, but now it is slowly getting better. My dad still has suspicions that it’s “all in my head”, and that somehow I should just decide to stop sweating and things will get better lol. My mom explored some…[Read more]

I am thinking of doing iontophoresis for armpits, but I first need to decide which device to use. Probably Drionic, Idrostar or Hidrex, from the looks of it. The best choice, I’d say, is a device that has an option to use a really mild pulsed current. I am going to do some more research on specifics of pulsed current for each of potentially useful…[Read more]

Oh, I was just thinking of creating a thread about social anxiety, and then saw this…
I didn’t take that test there. Is it about social anxiety or just general anxiety?
Ramona, did you learn anything useful from those test results?

Anyone else here coping with anxiety along with hyperhidrosis?

Hi,

I have just learned on another forum that getting medication without prescription can be possible, but a lot of it depends on where you live! So, it seems that getting Robinul in UK is very difficult, in USA you need a prescription, and in Canada you can just buy it like you would buy an Aspirin!

A lot of people apparently buy Canadian…[Read more]

Hi Becky! Trust me, you’re not alone in this… I know exactly how tiresome this struggle is, halfway between anxiety and sweating, all the time… It wears me out, I think it’s taxing and exhausting on some emotional level, which is probably why we don’t feel like socializing that much. I mean, it’s easier to stay at home and be comfortable,…[Read more]
