Hyperhidrosis Support Group
Primary hyperhidrosis is the condition characterized by abnormally increased perspiration, in excess of that required for regulation of body temperature. Some patients afflicted with the condition experience a distinct reduction in the quality of life. Sufferers feel at a loss of control because perspiration takes place independent of temperature and emotional state.
Has anyone found any effective treatment for treating compenstory sweating after having the ETS surgery? I have tried ditropan xl and have taken if for a couple of years worked great then all of a sudden side effects worsened. Blurred vision was a big one. So any feedback wld be great. Thxs!
These days the only thing that I find helps a bit is Odaban anti-perspirant. It's one of the prescription-strength aluminium-based products, but has the advantage over some of the others of being a spray rather than roll-on, so you can control better how much comes out.
I also use things like sage tea (recommended all over the net for hyperhidrosis), but the jury's out at the moment on whether it helps.
Don't give up the fight mate.
