Any ideas how to deal with the excessive sweat on the couch and the chairs?

I recently threw my old couch, the surface of which was made of fabric that was nearly impossible to wash and made me very warm and sweatier than usual. After that, I bought an eco-leather couch that is super easy to clean and wash, but I overlooked one awful thing:…[Read more]

Hidrex PSP 1000 comes with a face mask option that looks like a perfect solution for us with facial hyperhidrosis. Unfortunately, from what I gather, face mask has to be bought separately, meaning you have to cash out extra money for that. And really, the only iontophoresis device that has this face mask seems to be Hidrex PSP 1000 – and this…[Read more]

So far, miraDry was available only in the few countries outside U.S. – Japan, Korea and Canada.
Well, I just found out on miraDry website that this is no longer the case! Now, several more countries have physicians who offer this hyperhidrosis treatment for underarms.

Okay, sure, it’s not summer yet, but it will be here soon, and already (where I live) we are experiencing days of increased heat… And I don’t need to say that this means more and more excessive sweat (for me and pretty much everyone else with hyperhidrosis.)

I started doing something very simple (and maybe a little silly) to get rid of the awful sweat odor on my underarms.

I am writing this because I discovered a video that truly inspired me, in a way.

This is the video (a Youtube link)

Being anxious as hell in real life, and especially in front of the cameras, I was amazed to see this young, pretty girl, who practically looks my age or somewhere there, to speak out so openly about her painful hyperhidrosis…[Read more]

This is scary!!

I’m thinking about undergoing a miraDry procedure for my underarm sweating. And, while surfing on their website, I found this simple, and yet telling “sweat cost calculator”.

It’s upsetting to see the costs summed up like that. And, keep in mind that I already have a Hidrex iontophoresis device – I did not even include the cost…[Read more]

I’m seeing someone. It’s been several casual dates so far, but things are slowly progressing and I know I won’t be able to hide my condition forever. I need advice on how to deliver the news – how to confess that I have hyperhidrosis.

So far it’s been easy to hide it because I have axillary hyperhidrosis – so, it’s not very visible. My hands and…[Read more]
