Does anyone else suffer with continuous sweating.

[Honey7]

Hi all

I have a real problem with seating all the time I have to get changed a couple of times during the night as I wake up soaked. It would not be so bad if it was just at night but it is all day it is very embarrassing most of the time I look like I have just got out of the shower. I wondered if anyone else suffers with this and if it is connected to Crohn's I never suffered with this until this latest flare that I am in. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for reading.

Yes, while in a flare. I started the menopause last year and went on HRT because I couldn't cope with hot flushes on top of hot flushes. When you sweat a lot, it is a good idea to take electrolyte replacement fluid. I struggle to stay hydrated especially when it is hot.

Like Daisy, I also am starting menopause, and my hot flashes are worse at night, but I get them during the day as well. If you are in your mid 30s or older, it could be peri-menopause, which can have all the lovely symptoms of menopause while still getting your period.

Just make sure to drink a lot of fluids, and I find drinking cold drinks makes me feel less hot, even if it doesn't stop the sweating.

I suffered with extreme sweating and chills, changing my clothes and sheets several times a day when I had an abscess. It could be a sign of an infection you have but like others said I don't know your age and it could also be menopause.

Thank you all so much for your comments I have been thinking the same thing about the menopause. I am 48 so it is very possible just wish it was not all happening at the same time.

I am on a low dose of HRT but do recommend it.

Thanks Daisy. I have a doctor's. Appointment. Monday so will speak to her about it. I hope it is that and nothing to do with all the other stuff I have going on. I discovered today that eating sausages is not a good idea they made me very poorly.
