Diagnosis/treatment
A MyHyperhidrosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

What do I have to say to my doctor for them to take me seriously about my excessive sweating!! I want to try oxy or benzo or whatever but what do I need to do to get it? I’ve tried prescription deodorant, my skin is to sensitive for that.

Please help... I’m desperate like you

How Do I Get My Point Across To My Doctor?
A MyHyperhidrosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

I have always been a extreme sweater. My Mother, Father and Grandfather have too. I recently was prescribed an antidepressant that finally works. After years of trying numerous scripts that never worked. I finally have found help with despression but my sweating has increased to the level it's interfering with my quality of life. I was given clonidine first for the sweating with no success. It only bottomed out my blood pressure to 89/58. Then was prescribed gabapentin which I refused to take… read more

Is There I Can Use Or Do To Feel A Little Relief?
A MyHyperhidrosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

I'm always hot, but had been sweating like crazy over a few months. The doctor seems not to care when I mention it. Is there any way, form, treatment I can use to feel relief? This completely changed my life. I am very aware of the constant sweating and feel ashamed to go out or even receiving visitors since no one seems to understand and tell me is menopause. I sweat mostly my head and face, get red, getting rashes under my breast and bikini line, vaginal infections since I get completely… read more

Is There A Brand Of Glycopyrrolate That Is Most Effective?
A MyHyperhidrosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

I'm new to this group but not new to hyperhidrosis. I'm currently 55 but my first memory of excessive sweating was on the playground in 5th or 6th grade. No one wanted to share their baseball mitt with me because my sweating made it sopping wet. Fast forward to my late 20s when I discovered oxybutynin and my life changed. I was finally able to manage my excessive sweating and felt a lot more comfortable in my skin. Recently the oxybutynin manufacturer I had been using (Apotex) no longer produces… read more

Should I Go Back To Doc For Another Try For Diagnosis?
A MyHyperhidrosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

Mine starts on my head and can actually feel it spreading out within my hair (like a puddle eh water getting bigger) then it's as though the moment it starts between fringe n brow line a sudden showers switch on using maximum pressure, within a minute (2 at most) I drenched(no joke when a say head 2 toe) what's worse this can last for as long as it decides it wants to stop, the longest it's lasted was at least 30 odd hrs continuos.
