Deodorant Advice

I have had the lymph nodes under my left armpit removed about 2 years ago. At the time of the surgery, my surgeon advised me to NEVER use any deodorant again that contained any aluminium products. As these 'gum up' your lymphatic system and there is still a query around this causing problems with mammograms and they may cause some forms of cancers.

Therefore, I have tried everything from applying lemon juice to my arms pits, crystal deodorant and just about everything else known to woman kind! Even though I shave very regularly in the area, I also use a antibacterial soap I still get very smelly. Powder is also not recommended, even baby powder.

Does anyone have any ideas on how I may maintain my personal hygiene and also be nice to be near. Please remember that I live in New Zealand and many of the products available in the US are unfortunately unavailable to me here. Many grateful thanks for your tips.
