Re; Night sweats

[Guest guest]

I am very interested in the topic of night sweats. I have them every time I

sleep. It is gross to wake up in a ball of sweat. I thought it had something to

do with my hormones because I am taking progesterone shots to stop my cycle.

Someone told me it was from having a fever so every time I woke up in a pool

of sweat I would take my temp.. Sometimes I do have a low grade and sometimes I

don't. I noticed on my records that I am collecting that the DR's comment

that I don't complain of night sweats. Someone got that wrong.

I also question does anyone out there have weight problems. My weight

has gone down as low as 110, and now it is up to 145. I am about 5'6. So now

I am over weight. It seems as though I can't do anything to get my weight down

to a reasonable weight. How can one gain weight when one does not eat that

much, nor eat high fatty foods?

I am still on my quest to get consultations for thoughts of surgery. I

am now thinking that I may have new stents put back in me, which will give me

time gather info about my surgery options. I do not want to just jump into

someone's operating room unless I know that I will have some positive relief.

Right now I am doing fine and I was able to control a nasty attack this week

without going to the ER. I am learning to hang in there as long as I can before

I

enter the sliding doors of the ER...That's all for now.... best wishes to

all..........Paget
