my wife's story: Hello, my name is Hellena and I'm 41 years old. I have hyperhidrosis on the palms and soles.
It is an inheritance from my father. It has occurred, as usual with the advent of puberty. I was twelve, when I sensed it as a problem. Previously it was minimal, but from this age it became very cruel.
My hands started to run literally and my daily life was troubled. I could not shake hands and touch other people because my palms were very damp and cold. I constantly rubbed them in my clothes, leaving wet spots there.
Accordingly, I felt great shame and inconvenience of this thing. At school I also felt inconvenienced because my notebooks were literally soaking wet and falling apart. I walked with several handkerchiefs that I put on the leaves and changed them several times a day. There was a stream of water. I felt disgusting. My father was living with this problem, and he was telling me there was no solution for this thing. He was also suffering, but, somehow he was not looking for a treatment option. However, as a girl, I felt a serious discomfort. You can`t dress beautiful, colorful clothes, you can`t touch your loved people, have the inconvenience and the fear, that you have to give a hand to acquaintance, to break your books in your hands - that's not normal!
At one point, your whole life revolves around this problem, and that inevitably leads you to depression and isolation. You are experiencing great shame on this thing. Because by nature I am very contact person, but as a woman I am vain and keep my appearance, I decided to fight the problem and seek treatment. I was 13 when I visited some of the best skin-care doctors and neurologists for my time. I also visited an endocrinologist. I was amazed, that they had never heard of such a disease - I did not know then, that it was called hyperhidrosis and, that many other people suffer, as well as me. The doctors then looked at me strangely, and told me with a mockery, that such a beautiful young girl should not pay attention to some sweating.
„It was nothing and I have to be enjoyed life. „Great work, that you can`t do hi“. At that point I realized that they did not really understand the essence of the problem and were completely helpless. What's more, they are downplaying, laughing, and totally incompetent about this problem. Only a person who has lived with this nightmare called hyperhidrosis, knows what hell is such a life. I understood, that I can`t get help from the doctors at this stage.
Then there was no internet, and the means of communication were limited. But I did not stop asking and looking for treatment. It was only my faith, that I would find a variant and live a normal life. Not to get used to moisture and depression, but to find medicine to have no moisture and depression !!! Some of the doctors I visited then advised me. "You will live like this and you will not pay attention to it."
Everyone who is affected by hyperhidrosis knows how absurd this statement is. That's why I started looking for people who really know what it is, understand the problem, and can really help. I started asking older women and I was surprised at how much they know about the various diseases. From their different ways of treatment - herbs, powders, massages and, above all, their sympathy. None of them laughed at me and did not say it was "nothing." On the contrary, they said that this was a serious problem that took me from the normal rhythm of life and offered me different treatment options. But the best option that dried my hands at 100 percent was given by granny Valentina. She brought my life back. She prepared for me a powder that I put it in the evening. Before going to bed, moisten your palms. Sprinkle the palms and fingers on the inside of your hand with the powder, and put on your cloth gloves. You have to sleep with the gloves.
The first time I did, my hands were literally running. I did it three consecutive nights. On the third day, my hands were dry at a hundred percent. I never had such hands. I could touch everything I wanted. For healthy people maybe it was nothing, but for me it was all. This 100 percent dryness continues for two full weeks. Powder is poured on clean, moistened hands. No exposed wounds or irritated areas of the skin. After two weeks I put my powder again, but only once, because you do not have to wait for more time to get your hands running and to experience the old discomfort. It is, the procedure must be done once every two weeks - two nights a month. That`s all. Your hands will be 100 % dry. I have to tell you that the powder forms a protective filter from the inside of the palm and the inside of the fingers. It is the essential, this filter pulls out and removes moisture, and dries the hands completely. The inner part of the hand looks slightly yellowed and you may feel a slight squeeze when bathing or when washing longer. This is the only side effect that after bathing for 10 - 15 minutes disappears. Sometimes it does not even appear and a slight squeeze.
After the second week, if you do not put the powder, the yellow protective layer of your hands will gradually disappear and after the third week you will have your well-known, perfectly smooth and flowing hands. I tried the powder and the soles, the action with me was much less. But I want to say, that my hyperhidrosis is very strong - severe. It may be more effective for someone with less sweating. On the same principle, I put the powder several times in a row of moistened legs and I slept with socks. It works, but much weaker. That's why I do not recommend it for soles, because it doesn`t work 100 %. But on my hands solved the problem at one hundred percent. I was 15 years old when I began to use the powder, and to this day I am grateful to granny Valentina, who is no longer among the alive, that gave me the ingredients to be able to lead a normal way of life. The problem with my legs is solved in this way. During the summer I wear orthopedic slippers with a three - four centimeters complete platform, so that the foot is not inclined and not skating. It is good to have natural leather and stick to the side of the leg. So the foot is stable and it is soft and comfortable.
In this way, in the summer, I almost do not feel the problem. There are many beautiful and colorful slippers and you can combine them with each outfit. About the hands, the powder action is absolutelly, for so many years I have a hundred percent. I put it once every two weeks - twice a month. I suppose most people with palmar hyperhidrosis will work in this way. You can also individually judge how long you use it. If you have not used it for a longer period of time, you can put two consecutive nights. It is no problem. Everyone will feel how it works and how long it will continue.
These days I happened to be at a hyperhidrosis forum, and I decided to look at it, because I remembered the horror I experienced as a teenage girl. Since then I have not thought about this problem. But when I came to the forum, I decided to see where they came after so many years. I saw that the problem is already known, even called hyperhidrosis. I saw that there are special clinics for this disease, that there are highly qualified doctors who really try to help, but I also saw that there are many people, who continue to suffer and be ashamed. It instantly took me back so many years ago, and I realized, that things had not changed much, and that these people feel the same pain and misunderstanding as I felt. I looked at some forums and saw that there are different methods to maintain the disease and that's great, but the powder is very easy, quick and acting option.
There are also no side risks, everyday repetitions, pain and compensatory sweating. I hope very much, that one day chemists and doctors will invent a way to remove the disease completely. But until then, everyone has to find his easiest, quickest, and last but not least, safe way to maintain. I wish success to everyone! To all, who want to use the powder. I will be happy to write to my personal email and give reviews. If you have any questions or something that bothers you, do not hesitate to write to me. I will answer everyone. I wish you success and I hope you will write to me with dry hands next time and this wet problem will no longer be a problem for you. [Admin: Link and E-Mail deleted]
