@dawhitedirtbiker look up shannonbowling video on youtube (type cure sweaty hands). it's a marvellous video-guide to help u build ur own iontophoresis machine with less than 20 quid (or bucks if u're american!) dont get ets done! give iontophoresis a try. for more info, just google it! if u can afford a proper ionto machine (they're quite expensive), just ignore shannonbowling videos! good luch and lemme know! my hands r completely dry ever since i got to know iontophoresis! :)
-
@djandreal ive never heard of iontophoresis can u explain it for me?
-
@dawhitedirtbiker yeah, i couldnt use my keys properly and would ring the doorbell all the time! besides ur fingertips sweat anyways. iontophoresis is good though u get compensatory sweating. anyhow it's reversible unlike the ets procedure.
-
@jshemie i know but from what i heard it makes ur hands weaker and u lose a little bit of feeling from it... with the hobbies i do this would not be safe for me
-
@jshemie ok, i'll see u in 2 weeks time! sorry darling, i dont mean to freak u out but compensatory sweating is so common with ETS and it only kicks in after few weeks. u should have not done it. i'm afraid ur real nightmare has only just begun. good luck.
-
@dawhitedirtbiker botox doesnt induce compensatorty sweating but ets does. h-hydrosis can ruin social experiences and makes hand shaking a nightmare
-
if ur in england botox is free on nhs once every 12months but ets is the way to go if u only have palmar and plantar. if you are a general sweater stay away from ets.

@djandreal well, i just had ets two days ago, i have to say i am very impressed with the results so far. my consultant is amazing and i really do trust him as he even preferred not to do the treatment privately as if anything were to go wrong, he would have the public hospital as a back up (not many surgeons would ever do this as it means they earn a few thousand pounds or dollars less). Botox, if it works for you is fatastic, especially if it lasts a long time like 8 months
Seems most of you dont understand the basics of this...well it is not a disease but a condition rather. It's all in the sympathetic nervous system which is over active. It is sending too much signals to the sweat glands and it is not only controlled by feelings but very much so even if you dont think so. Most people with palmar hyperhidrosis dont sweat in their sleep for example.
You ARE in fact born with this condition but it doesnt really kick in for some until their teenage years.

Exactly Soxicmusic... Fix it for free, safely & for good! Sweaty hands, feet, underarms, etc (except when exercising) are caused by the sympathetic autonomic nervous system (ANS). There are two branches to the ANS sympathetic (fight/flight) and para-sympathetic (feed/breed). Notice when you are stressed or nervous the symptoms are worse? Manage stress by reprogramming your ANS. Chiropractic adjustments, breathing exercises, and visualizations will do that for you. Watch my videos to learn more.
