Medicine, menopause, and monsoon...

Do they do botox in your scalp? Really -- I am in need of HELP! Perspiring excessively from the head runs in my family -- my mother's side (thanks, Mom!). I began to do so when I was about 19 or so. It is not only uncomfortable, it is humiliating. Snicker, snicker, with a smile: "Are you okay?" "What happened?" "What's wrong with you?""Is it raining?" Me (embarrassed, mortified, fed up (with the sweating and the comments): "Its just me." "I'm fine. Its just they way I am."

Now, with all of the medications I am taking and this damn menopause (that they don't warn you lasts f-o-r-e-v-e-r!!) and the newly arriving monsoons with the accompanying humidity I look like I just stepped out of the shower from the moment I step out of the shower. It seems to get worse every day. Honestly, I cannot walk cross the room without working (??) up a sweat. I am miserable. And, I am moving to New Orleans in the near future. I am gonna die there. I am going to melt away like the wicked witch from the Wizard of Oz. Except they won't need to light me on fire. I will spontaneously combust! Actually I don't think I will make it to NOLA, I will melt away here in the desert monsoons.

Sorry, just had to bitch. I am soaked to the bone, hurt clear through to my bones, and I am bone tired. Again, I am miserable. Poor, poor pitiful me.

me,
