How I cured my hyperhydrosis FOR FREE

Hi friends,

My son completed eight days of treatments, and his left hand is nearly completely dry! Other than finger tips.
The right hand however is still sticky clamy wet. To continue treatment on the right hand, we found that the left hand must also be in the other pan for it to make the current work.
Is it okay to continue treatment on this hand that is already dry? As it is the only way to get the current to work to continue treating the right hand that is still sweating.

I ordered him some hydrosal gel as well yesterday from canada.
I guess its not available in the US for some reason?

Thanks,
Sophie

um well my palms are sometimes red and sometimes not like if they're air conditioning in the room and it's a comfortable temperature my hands will never go red. but if it's freezing outside most peoples hands will turn red from what i've seen. Also ive seen a lot of people with red hands that have dry hands. My dad for example has bright red hands almost all the time mainly on the sides of them and his are always dry. Maybe i got it from his side and he had it as a kid ever so slightly and got worse with me but i don't know. The thing is is that if you think about your hands they'll most likely sweat. Most people go throughout the entire day or even their entire lives not noticing or caring if they're hands are sweating. Maybe we're just more self conscious of our body's or have evolved more than other people. But a lot of people have this condition to various degrees. Truth is our hands and feet were made to sweat, they have more sweat glands on them then any other body part by a lot. I think it's good that your hands are slightly red or marbled because that means their getting good circulation, it would be bad if they were purple or blue. Also if you're light skinned for example and have light hair or light eyes your skin tone tends to be a pinkish or white, it all depends. I hope that iontophoresis works for your son, I'm going to try it soon. I just hope this condition doesn't get any worse as they say it peaks in adolesence or gets worse in early adulthood so I'm 21 now i hope this means adolescence is over with. I want to move to a colder climate, my hands never at all sweat when it's colder which is a good thing because i can control it with temperature.

oh dear, Im just really confused atm about how many treatments to do and how to do maintenence also. I get such varying results due to the fact I have no set way of doing it. Say I manage to get my hands dry, I try to repeat the process and I might not get the same result again, for example, the last time my hands were dry I did a treatment a day for 6 days and did 2 treatments on the 7th..I wasnt dry straight away so I decided to take a 2 week break and start over...5 days into my break from it I had completely dry hands. This is what made me think my hands need 5 days to settle after finishing the course of treatments. So, with this in mind when I went back to doing treatments I did one a day for 6 days and on the 7th day I did a 30min session, 15mins per polarity. My hands were not dry but I didnt worry because I thought in 5 days they would calm down again..im now on day 6 after finishing the treatments and theyre still sweating a bit..not as much as they would normally but still enough to be annoying! and im really upset because ive got a social event next saturday the 11th, and I really dont know what to do to get my hands dry in time!! do I just leave it and see if they dry up or do a couple of treatments to boost it a bit or what?! im so stressed about this!!

any suggestions much appreciated, can anyone who has made this work for them please help me with this? Crying or Very sad

Hey Becky,
I emailed Shannon through youtube, and he says to continue treatment until hands are dry. Do not stop treatment, unless you cant stand it, until it works. Maybe that is your problem. My son just completed 12th day, although his left hand has been mostly dry since 8th treatment.
You have to do both hands to conduct the current, one hand at a time wont work.
My son has some minor burns on his thumbs, which he puts vaseline on before doing treatments. They arent really bad, so he chooses to continue treatment. Finally his right hand is starting to respond on the palm, just fingers still sweating. He is going to continue as Shannon suggests until they are completely dry! Then he will do the maintenance treatments.

If no problems, I suggest you do the treatments daily until your sweating stops altogether. Then do maintenance from there.

Best of Luck to you!!!

has anyone noticed pain in the wrist after doing this treatment? like when i rotate my wrist a bit it hurts (not from the water line in the water). i'm wondering if it's because of this treatment because i've never had this pain before.

Wrist pain you say?

I have the same problem, definitely the Idromed. Got to be. Can't think of anything else that would do it. Yup. Idromed.

Ok, I've read the entire thread.. Every post, so I think I pretty much know what to do but I still prefer to focus some direct questions..

General Info first
I'm 22 years old, suffer HH in palm and underarm.. For underarm I ordered Odaban (should arrive in a week or two) and for palm I wish to use this method...

My palm issue is annoying but not very severe.. Its not dripping wet but moist and wet.. I find myself rubbing my hands against my pants most of the time and always before I shake someone's hands or something... I will also add that it seems that if Im in a room where its not to hot and I dont think about my hands sweating, most of the time they wont sweat..

1. Which platform is best to use? Alu' foil or something else?

2. My biggest fear is the part where people say they "now sweat even more than they used too".. I do understand thats a part of the process and does stop at some point but I'd like to know for how long will I sweat more and does it happen to everyone or just some people?

3. Ill be using 18v for twice a day.. If I do start to get burn marks, should I put Aluvera before or after the treatment? (i.e put my hands in the "device" while they have aluvera on them)

4. I read that you shouldnt put your palm in the bottom of the "device", instead let it float? Just make sure the entire palm is in the water?

I think thats it.. I bought 2 9v bat's but couldnt find any theeths to connect them.. Its friday and everything is closed right now.. Have to wait till Sunday or something..

Thank you very much

I haven't tried this method. In fact I just want to wait until summer after this year (senior year of highschool) before I start messing with my hands. I'm emotionally strong enough to deal with the rest of the year so there is no point in a) making it worse b) spending my time during the year trying to figure this out when I should be studying! Razz

I'm 18, 160 lbs and 6 ft. and have never tried anything. I've dealt with HH on my hands and armpits and I really dislike the idea of using chemicals to treat this. Some have side-effects that are quite bad...

To try and answer your questions hubh:

2. I think days 3, 4, and 5 were supposedly the days that sweat a lot before it gets better. Worse before better (but remember I don't have experience, I'm just going from what I read).

4. Also from what I've read from Placeboeffect, you should not touch the pans with your hands. Keep them floating in the water to get the best results.

Sophie: I'm sure your son is having a hard time, and I am too, but don't blame yourself and make sure he doesn't get too psychologically damaged by it either. He obviously has a loving mother and I'm sure plenty of his good friends couldn't careless if he had sweaty palms. It can be even easier for you to parent because you're in the same situation. My parents try to help and it does no good, because they have no experience Razz

Anyway, I'm going to post more on this thread in a few months when I actually begin to try this treatment. It looks pretty good so far. How does it work exactly? What about the current prevents sweating?

Best of luck
