Medical Conspiracy? Suffers Unite! We need to find a cure!

Hello no-ets.com forum,
I suffer from both palmar and plantar hyperhidrosis.
As I use my hands often, I often resort to wearing gloves (a pair of plastic gloves, and then a pair of silk gloves on top). This can become uncomfortable. Especially, when I do the same with my feet (a pair of latex socks and then cotton socks on top), I start to gradually feel nauseous.
I have used a cheap iontophoresis machine made by VECOM. I think I paid for it in 2012 300 euros. It has worked for some time. I think the first whole year, but then it stopped. So I started doing other things, such as prescription drugs (i.e. Oxybutinin).
I stopped doing oxybutinin, because of its side-effects. I am planning on getting a new iontopherisis machine. I believe that the VECOM one only went up to 30 mA, maybe another machine goes up higher? I am interested in possibly trying the Idrome 5 PC.
Meanwhile, I have started to have a terrible case of tinnitus (since Jan. 2016) - which might be related or not. Certainly, it is related to the nervous system.
The iontophoresis machines are relative simple constructs - even youtube videos exist that show you how to construct your own.
Then, why are they so expensive? In fact, any electrician can setup a machine for you...
I have tried Botox Injections in July, but I was not happy with the results - I think that they barely lasted a week. This is why I am planning on starting iontophoresis treatments again, as I had had the most luck with these so far.
A problem I had with iontophoresis was that it was too time-consuming. It's difficult spending an 1h 30m everyday on a treatment...
There is a whole branch of people (mostly online) trying to profit from hyperhidrosis suffers by selling "miracle cures" such as diet changes...
A question I have to ask is: why this problem has not been concretely approached from the medical community? how come a solution does not exist?
Why iontophoresis treatments which have existed since the 50s are still more/less unexplainable? "A transfer of a drug, or the sweat glands get plugged in." Could we figure what liquids are appropriate for the treatment?
I can continue on... but this will do for now.
Interested to see how it is commented on. My first post on this...
Thank you for reading,
Kind Regards,
