I've been struggling to control this my whole life and the past 2 years especially because that's when I actually tried to do something about it. I'm fucking sick of it and tbh I don't see the point of living anymore if all I get are dripping wet hands. First I tried anti-perspirants and they did fuck all, then it went onto ionto treatments and for a whole fucking 2 years I did alternate ways of using the treatment, (e.g. I changed the times of the treatments, how regularly I did them, what I put in the water - bicarb. of soda, sea salt, glycopyrrolate solution), the current of the ionto machine), I've changed my diet to see if it would affect the sweating and now I'm currently using Dehydral Cream, STILL trying to do something with the Idrostar AND I'm on fuckin' Pro-Banthine which I thought worked for a couple of weeks but I just had a pill about 3 hours ago and my hands are sweating again for the first time in about a damn fuckin' MONTH. I knew this was all too good to be fucking true and I'm fed up for fuck sake and feel sorry for all the rest of the forum users who suffer from this. AND because of concentrating on sorting this problem I've fallen behind with school and I feel as though I've fuckin' lost my social life aswell since all I sit and do is think of ways I could control this piece of shit of a problem. FUCK LIFE.
Hey man I know exactly how u feel I think I was fairly close to a break down at one stage when I didn't know what HH was. Not knowing what HH was, was actually the worst time of my life as I didn't know what to do. I suffer from feet, underarms and hands. The only thing that really has helped me so far is confidence and staying calm although I still have my moments. Unfortunately I know what its like to be in a stressful environment like school so it may not be the easiest thing to stay calm but hey at least with palmer you don't have to worry about the smell. And take courage that there are others in similar or worse situations than you. You would be surprised man at how people are not as concerned about wet hands as some of us may think.

It often seems like everythings going great for a while, then it goes really bad again doesn't it? My hands went really bad again only last week, but I did a few days of treatments and now they're ok again. I even added effervescent salts which seemed to help.
Did you see my post on glycopyrrolate cream? Go to your doctor and try and get it on prescription. It's from the same ppl you ordered glycopyrrolate solution from. I've made an appointment myself.
I feel very sorry for you HHzapp but that doesnt help you much unfortenly.
I tought of one thing when I was reading your topic.I was reading one time about a guy that ionto didnt work for.But he moved/traveled or something like that and the ionto did work.And it was because of the hardnes of the water I think.
Im not an expert one what type of water working best or not because my type home is working for me.But it also worked in Thailand and Spain?
I think hyper-hydro knows something about this.Maybe you could check out first the perfeckt "formel" of the water for the ionto,get this water and start over again and give a shit in verything else?
Dont give up.Personly I got big,big stomach problems so I cant work a lot of times, on top of HH.And still if my sweating has stopped for 90-95% because of ionto and dehydralcream, my hands/feet swell up.I have so much pain sometimes that I just wanna die.And the doctors cant find out whats wrong whith me on that either.I feel like a fucking hyperconder,and I was one time a god atlethe in my sport that was training 4-5 times a week.Now I just lie on the sofa most of the day.But at the end I get pisst off and still try to find solution to get well.
Something will work for you 1 DAY.And like other people say there are actually people who have it worse than us.But that doesnt help us much either when this shitty illness is bottering us so much.
I have a couple of more ideas to but ill think I stop now,maybe you dont wanna hear more of mine ideas after this either:)
And still if my sweating has stopped for 90-95% because of ionto and dehydralcream, my hands/feet swell up.
Your hands and feet swell up? From the sweat gathering up in them that would otherwise normally escape?
Does anyone else have these issues? Just curious, I guess it's a small price to pay for dry hands and feet but I'm just wondering if it'd be a noticeable swelling.
"Your hands and feet swell up? From the sweat gathering up in them that would otherwise normally escape?"
Hu,no I dont think thats the reason because they did the same before I was using the ionto!
Let me put the worst scenario before ionto.Hands/feet get really warm,red, swollen and sweaty.
Most of the time only sweaty.But know after the ionto they still swell up sometimes.
Notiseable?,No I dont think it is for other people,but for me it is like I cant take the fingers toghether to the point that I have a fist.Halfway I feel like my fingers will explode,so its a very nasty feeling,the same nasty feeling when walking indoors whith only socks on.So its not nice to touch other things,people,etc.
If you have seen americas most funniest,when they put socks on a dog,I feel like I walk like that.
Think it have something to do whith the bloodcirculation,because most of the time my hands/feet are cold.But once in a while they get red and warm and I feel like the blood is pumping up my hands /feet.?????????

My hands or feet never usually swell up, though this has been the case once or twice when my hands have been sweating and it's really hot in the summer. I can't say why some peoples might swell up and others dont. Often though my fingers especially feel like they're burning up inside, but are cold on the outside. This was the case prior to ionto as well. I think ionto reduces it somewhat.
