Hello,
I previously tried the Hidrex direct current model for about 8 weeks of fairly intensive use, but experienced no benefit for my plantar hyperhidrosis. I even tried different water (Evian, etc ...

HI--just wondering if there are any updates with the return?

I am all set to return as soon as I hear about the refund status, so please advise at your earliest convenience.

I think I will return it for now. Just for clarification, you had given me extensions on the refund period, so I am assuming that I will be returned the full amount. Please clarify.

voltage: 35-40V
current: direct; usually + on right side but switched once or twice
area: feet
water: very shallow, Evian

Is there any ut ...

still no effect after the extension....is it worth trying a pulsed current???

Otherwise I might have to just concede and send it back. Open to any suggestions. Thanks!

Well, previously I was able to reaach 45V without pain, but recently due to some unrelated abrasions on my feet, the max is 35-40 even with the application of petroleum jelly to the affected areas.

Thanks very much--I will keep you posted

Hi--I tried using Evian and possibly experienced relief but am uncertain as I was forced to interrupt treatments with a 10-day vacation. Unfortunately, my 60-day trial period is about to run out so I ...
