cmep37 Posted February 2, 2021 Report Share Posted February 2, 2021 This is a typical symptom for me with POTS - my GP prescribed me Driclor (a really strong antiperspirant deodorant) as like you I was soaking the armpits and back and underboob area of my clothes if I stood up for more than a few minutes. It has worked a treat - I used it every day for about 3 months and now I only need to use it a couple of times a week. You can buy it on Amazon if you don't want to go through your GP. It doesn't stop the feeling of being hot and sick but it does stop the rivers of sweat! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merkat30 Posted February 3, 2021 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2021 Thanks cmep37 I will have look at ingredients online such horrid feeling it is isn't it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmep37 Posted February 3, 2021 Report Share Posted February 3, 2021 I know some people aren't keen on Driclor etc as they believe strong chemical deodorants can increase your risk of breast cancer. Personally I was ready to give anything a shot as I was too embarrassed to go out with wet patches! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
