Default "Stinky Folks", How do You deal? (very private)

How do you deal, with, when you were once "so happy/proud, almost" of how your "self once emanated itself"? That is, how the "Scent, of oneself, contributed, even and especially, contraband, in the dark, to one's "part'? (Your "Fume, once set off your own scent?)
(It's ALL in the Scent), I used to say....

After my 2nd accident, which brought on the TBI> broke discs, etc. it occurred to me, that I could not control my perspiration. NOT COOL!

Between Female and Male (Note our Mammal Pets) dogs especially, how "Scent" has got SO much to do with it. Nobody's gonna tell me, that it has no place in the human zone. Right?
Now, nobody is sniffin' anyone's tail here, but..
Lot's of you know of what I speak.

Another note,
The Dam Shower Hurts!
Now, I built a home, with Kohler bathrooms, and whirlpools. That's gonna be gone, tomorrow.
But, I've been "outta there" for some years.

I'm still trying to figure out, how to get by "That Smell", that isn't quite, or close to even , being, ME!

I, used to smell good. (Or, so my ladies told me) and, they were "drawn".
Why? (I used to think, and still do, that "It's All in the Scent"!) No more!

And, then,
WHY, is it so different with RSD?

What is going on?
I know it's widespread, because Dr Knobler tells me, his RSD patients call them selves "stinky people".
We avoid showers. ( I know that's not all there is to it! )

That's certainly one cause, but, I remember, when I was able to "work hard",
even after having my first stage of RSD,
it was the 2nd "Hit" to my head, that caused my perspiration to take on an entire other "State!".
I was working my business on Mt Pocono. A place that NEVER required A/C. Blankets in the night, ALWAYS!
I took a shower, then, went and sat in my car, with the A/C on, with a magazine, trying to get my pores to close.
I can't do it!
When i take a shower now, I put my A/C on LOW, so that I can close my pores as soon as possible. (I know, this hair has got to go! too,)

But,
I'd doubt that i'm the only one noticing this.
I use,

Anti persperant spray, around my ears, and on my neck.
Certainly strong stuff in the "pits".

And GoldBond powder (not talc) some superior stuff, on my "other" places,
and a/persp on my feets, with powder.

I just can't think of something else...

My Doc, has offered another "pill", that will/might help with it, but, I reject more pills!

Does anyone know, other than this "pill" that I might, we might, use
to control this perpiration?

And worse,
Sweating is one thing.
It's a Way that we Attract those of the opposite sex. Or not. (I have NO consideration, at the moment, of trying to attract one of the opposite sex)!

But, My perspiration (scent) has changed, I supposed it has something to do with my PH, or something....
Heck, I used to "smell good"...

Anyone have any thoughts on this, of most embarrassing of thoughts?

Is it out Meds, that throw our Ph out? Or something like that?
I just don't know...Volcano! (jimmy Buffett)


Thanks.

You are All my friends!
