I watched the Hidden Lives programme about the problem of hyperhidrosis last night with great interest. I suffered from excessive persperation under my arms for many years. About twenty years ago I underwent surgery to remove some of the sweat glands from under my arms and from that day to this the problem has been completely eradicated. I wear a deodorant specifically designed to help with this problem (Driclor which is available on prescription) and I only have to use it one day a week. The more radical surgery was suggested to me which I refused. I can certainly recommend the operation that I had - IT HAS CHANGED MY LIFE. The surgeon that I saw in Harley Street, London carried out many operations of this kind.
