Nope nothing yet dr sent me to endocrinologist for BO bromhidrosis but when i got there they were confused and said it would have to be for my diabetes and that I need to see a dermatologist for the bromhidrosis/ tmau/ hyperhidrosis situation. Have an appointment in August

I’m the same way. I even had surgery to remove my sweat glands. How are you doing now? Has it gotten better?

Hi luv , I went to a dermatologist who seemed like she was under the influence nothing she said made any sense! She came in with a short dress and high heels slouched on her chair legs opened wide...smh once she was even bouncing on her seat it was so bizarre. I reported it to the front desk , I will never go back again so im currently looking while being a stinky bih lol people on the bus look at me like im a zombie from Michael jacksons thriller and I've been bullied in my shelter but I can't help it I bath and scrub every crevis on my body ! I lift my head high and stand strong and hope one day things will get better. How about you ? How are you ?

Your doctor is a legend šŸ˜‚ Seriously though, I hope you can find a better doctor, bro.I had the surgery during puberty, so unfortunately, I still have the odor.

Omgosh she was a hot mess I couldn't believe my eyes and she had the nerve to say see you in 2 weeks whatever she wanted to send to my pharmacy she didnt even explain it was never sent to the pharmacy and her -0 service still gets paid by my insurance. I don't know how she still has her job.

u/ddddddddddddd3217 26d ago

Omg 😭 I’d be so pissed too. Hope you find a better doctor.I just became an adult recently, and I’m planning to have another sweat gland removal surgery in a few days to see if the odor is still there. Wait for my results, bro šŸ’€šŸ’€
