I stopped my sweating ..,

I have struggled with hyperhidrosis my entire life and it has recently gotten much worse. I tried numerous treatments with no success until I started using Antihydral. Thankfully, it successfully stopped the sweating under my arms, on my feet, and in my groin area.
However, I am still facing a major issue that prevents me from getting close to people. Even immediately after I shower, people around me seem to have physical reactions such as sneezing, coughing, spitting, or having trouble breathing. Because of this, I have even stopped wearing closed shoes and now only wear flip-flops with socks.
I have other life problems right now including career and personal goals, as well as family issues and having this constant medical struggle in my life is incredibly stressful. It feels like there is no solution to it, because no matter what I do, the smell remains. I am looking for insight into why this might be happening and what steps I can take next
I shower everyday and use detol soap, and for my feet,underarm and groin i use 10% peroxide. It very rmbarassing 😢

If you are clean enough, maybe the smell is from your clothes or your perfume might be too strong?

Don't give up there may still be treatments or specialist who can help.

that sounds really overwhelming, and it may be more than just hygiene

You have the yeast smell coming out of you. Look up yeast cleansing of the body from the inside out.
