    Miradry for the hands

    Are there any more updates for Miradry for the hands? I had emailed them about a month ago and never got a response. Is anyone currently involved in the clinical trials? Also, does anyone know if it will be covered under insurance? I don't understand why botox is covered, but not Miradry.

    theanine

    Has anyone ever tried the supplement theanine? I have read on forums that it helps with anxiety (especially social anxiety). I bought it for anxiety, but was hoping it would also decrease my hyperhidrosis. Instead, it seems like it increased my sweating.

    Botox for feet?

    Has anyone gotten botox for the feet? I had it done on my hands and had awful results. I recently had botox done for my groin and had fairly good results so far. I had heard that botox on the feet hurts the most, but I wouldn't mind the pain as long as I have good results.

    Do most people that suffer from hyperhidrosis also have anxitey? I have had bad anxiety ever since I was very young, but I do not think it was due to my hyperhidrosis.
