Well you sound like me - the 1% figure can not possibly represent the severe all over HH I have. I start sweating severely with such ease these days. Quit my job recently as I was having to go home regularly because of my sweating and was told to go home by my boss because they thought I was sick.

At the moment I'm experimenting with Avert (I think it's the same thing as Robinul), Secure Wipes and Odaban. They all have their pros and cons.

Secure Wipes are good for the face but don't do anything to stop cranial sweating. Also expensive. Had minimal success with Odaban but others seem to swear by it. Avert - it's early days for me with this one. So far it's done a good job stopping the sweating on the backs of my legs/groin, and had some effect on my face. Don't feel comfortable taking an oral drug though.

You shouldn't have quit your job. I have made the same mistake in 2006 then found myself in a really bad situation financially, plus the fact of not having a job totally destroyed by self- esteem. I became a recluse.
What you should have done is talk to your GP to sign u off work for a couple of months for depression or something .

Right now i couldn't afford not to work as HH is an expensive illness. I have to buy so many shoes, socks, products, insoles etc etc

Well , good luck and remember, you've not nothing wrong. Also your boss could not have sacked you as it would have been a case of descrimination.

Wow. JP. I'm sorry to hear you had to go to such an extreme as a result of your HH.

I recommend a therapist in conjunction with your sweating treatments. It's obviously a lot to handle emotionally.
