Thank you to everyone for your suggestions to help with my smelly armpits. So far, the best results have been with vinegar. On Friday I tried it and had no smell (unless my sniffer wasn’t working). Then Saturday I had an incident and had to go to hospital in an ambulance. I had just had a shower and applied vinegar and deodorant but could already smell myself by time I was in the ambulance. I know I stunk up the room in Emerg. One nurse left a package of wipes on the table so a couple times I took sone and washed my pits, but it didn’t help. It was really embarrassing. I should have taken the opportunity to ask the ER doctor about it. When a friend came to pick me up she said I made her car smell like really strong BO. I’m guessing anxiety had a big role to play. Will try vinegar again today, rubbing alcohol tomorrow. Anyhow, I will let the subject go now and continue to try various things.
