Generalised HH - UK (anyone can help, though)

Hi guys, I've been suffering with generalised HH for as long as I remember.

Although all of it bothers me, it is the craniofacial HH that bothers me the most. I was wondering if anyone knew of any way at all that could help me. I don't mind what form of treatment you recommend, I just need help. I especially need help from the success stories in the UK, as I know HH is treated differently around the globe. But, I also welcome help from outside of the UK as their may be a UK alternative.

Thank you :)

For generalised hyperhidrosis i think that oral pills such as ditropan,robinul will be suitable for you.The feedback is dry eyes and mouth usually.Another solution also if you sweat in armpits botox is the bost suitabe.For back and chest many reviews also refer iontophoresis to be very succesful topically and you can order it from iontocentre which is also in England.

Iontophoresis is not a practical use for the back. It is beat suited for hands and feet. Look it up and you'll understand why. Johnk, I don't know where you heard that it is good for the chest and back, but it isn't. You have to complete a circuit of electricity between two electrodes and that is very difficult/impossible to realistically do in dealing with chest and back. With hands and feet it's easy because you can just put them in trays.

It's okay, I'm not worried about my chest and back, just my face!
