What to do about my sweating?

My sweating situation is really intolerable and I don’t know what to do about it. I’ve been going to job interviews, and I walk there to save money (even in this metropolis by local standards, I can pretty much walk anywhere). I always give myself enough time to arrive about a half hour early, so I can try to find a nearby air conditioned shop or restaurant to cool down before entering the interview itself. It does take about thirty minutes in a very cold environment to stop my sweating and to let my shirt dry off. In case I’m not able to find an air conditioned place in the neighborhood, I also bring along some paper towels to wipe myself down so I don’t look like I just fell in the Mediterranean.

I have another endocrinologist appointment in a month, and I’ll bring it up again with him, but he has again and again done nothing to help me, so I know he’ll do nothing this time. In the past, he’s always said he’ll think about it, but I know he doesn’t think about it at all, because it surprises him whenever I mention it the next time. I’m sure he’s overworked and doesn’t get the time, but in that event he should just tell me up front that he will not think about it.

I am thinking I’ll tell him: that he needs to send me to someone who can do something about my sweating, and that I know he must know of someone in this country who can – and if he doesn’t, he must know someone who knows someone who can – and if he doesn’t, he must know someone who knows someone who knows someone who can (that’s all that will be necessary, because it’s a small country).

By this point, I’ve gotten everything from him that I expect to get, so I don’t really give a damn if I ruin the relationship.
