Dear cyber friends:
I am Portuguese, 30 years old, and I am writing this message because there are many persons that don’t have knowledge about the way to get free from this really annoying problem that consists of sweating excessively from the hands - and, in my case, from the feet too. The main impact in my social life was in shaking hands to others, being quite embarrassing to constantly say "Excuse me for not shake your hand but I have a problem of excessive sweat on the hands...” Imagine this in an work interview…
Well then, after some conversations and, specially, many researches in the web, and making use of the excellent resources available in brazilian sites , I found the answer to my questions. There is an surgical intervention called Endoscopic Thoracic Sympathectomy (choose always this and not the previous approach that, by the way, already should not be practiced), that does not offer significant risks (not more than any surgery can imply), and that is done through tiny chambers of video inserted in down the incisions of the armpits. The average of success, for the sweat of the hands, is almost 100%, being also hight for the axilar hyperidrosis. Despite of this surgery not having the goal to solve the problem of the hyperidrosis plant (feet), to a great extent of people operated it has been verified a good improvement of this problem. Personal testimony: good, is very effusive. I am very satisfied, I was operated in 19th of October 2006.
Results: I have the hands dry, in a normal and pleasant temperature (before, when my hands where dry, they chilled), nearly always dry feet. In the my own words, I am experiencing a Tactile Revolution, touching everything with a real and very new pleasure. I know that it can seem a little strange to some of you, but to those that suffer from my ex-problem everything will certainly make sense.
Compensatory sweating: as our body seeks balance, the sweat that once upon a time spurted incontinent road hands is going to leave for other zones. Then, there is place to the so call compensatory sweating that, in my case, in general, occurs in the belly and in the back. But, in most of the time, this compensation takes around half year and afterwards disappears. I must say that, so far, I had no serious discomfort from that.
Phone for the hospitals, ask information, request to speak with medical, clinical directors, etc. It is very likely that you can make this surgery without any expense, as I did. This problem have a solution, and here I am writing to you with happy and dry hands to prove it!
A kiss to everybody. Feel free to contact me for further questions/informations: [email protected]
I would like to thanks to José Luís Agapito (www.jlagapito.net) for his precious translation of this testimony.
