Day 6 - Hands Are Dry, Mind Is Wandering

Good morning!

I have a dentist appointment in a few hours...I hate dentists. They are nice people but their job is like torture. I may need to get my wisdom teeth pulled :O

My hands are dry, warm and less swollen than they used to be. What I mean is, when I use to sweat constantly - my fingers would swell up sort of like a sponge filling with water.

Take a look at the first post and you will see what I mean :) Now my hands looks so much more "womanly". I am also a nail biter because of the anxiety of my HH. I am looking forward to getting my nails done at a salon.

I never had my nails done :(

Vincenzoso, the muscle weakness is like 95% gone. I rarely notice it. I am not sure what it is though, the botox or the nerve block?

Maybe if I didn't opt for the nerve block I wouldnt get muscle weakness? Maybe it's the botox. I couldn't say for sure.

It is so odd to not think about your sweaty hands every minute of the day. Almost like my mind needs something else to worry about. I can't believe how "normal" people have it so much easier than people who suffer from HH!

It hurts me to know that there are others out there that need treatment but can't get it because it's expensive. Everyone should be able to live a "normal" sweat-free life and not have to worry about this.

It makes me want to cry sometimes. I hope one day the governments of all countries find a cure that is not surgery but doesn't cost as much as botox.

PS - I left my camera in the car so Ill post pictures when I get back from the dentist :)

Take Care!
