Awakened by sweats

    This might disgust people but I need opinions. This is usual to me. I get waken up in sweats every time I have vivid dreams (be it good or bad). Its gotten to the point where I always leave the window open to always keep me cool. I wake up right after a dream and have to strip my top off to cool down. I don't consider myself overweight but I'm not exactly fit either. Maybe its my diet or I don't know what other factors there are.

    Knock the dreaming on the head for a few days perhaps. Sounds like you're doing way too much.

    Its well past my bedtime. Think I'll go now in fact.

    OP, talk to your doctor. Could be that its nothing, but get it checked out anyway. My 2 cents.

    Night.

    Thanks. It's funny though first thing I see is menopause. Lol. Time to tell my rents that they actually have a daughter.

    I get that if I eat dairy, especially cheddar cheese.

    Also, if I eat some really crap battery farm "value" chicken, I get similar.

    It's horrible, far worse even that the dreaded delirium tremens.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,652 ✭✭✭fasttalkerchat


    I had this for a few nights in a row after having the flu. Someone suggested drinking a tonne of water. Seemed counter intuitive to me and hard to know if it helped but no problems now.

    Menopause or night sweats?

    get yourself checked for diabetes - sounds like the symptoms for type 2

    Do you drink much? I was binge drinking last thursday and friday and then some recovery booze on saturday and I spent Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday night, absolutely ringing wet from sweat, like I'd been hosed down every night. Last night was the first night I slept properly without any sweat so I really need to lay off the booze ffs.


  • Site Banned Posts: 612 ✭✭✭Lionel Messy


    Walk out the front door of your house with no top on and cool down for a couple of minutes. It helps and is quite refreshing. No one will see you at night.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,507 ✭✭✭ArtyC


    This is happening to me for the last week. I've been reading Stephen king's the stand......maybe that's it

    All jokes aside this is good advice.

    night sweats, nightmares are all symptoms of having type 2 diabetes - it is when your blood sugars go down during the night (you are probably keeping them very high during the day by eating the wrong things) and during they night they drop - need to get it checked out

    Agreed - night sweats are symptoms of a lot of things so if I were you I'd get it checked out by a doctor.

    Get a Chillow. Got one of these for my daughter as a joke and it turns out to be brilliant.

    Ok thanks everyone. This has happened to me for a very long time. And now that I think about it. Diabetes is rampant at my mother's side and has taken 2 of my uncles and my cousin. I do randomly get crippling pains at my right lower leg now and then. I usually can tell when the pain comes and I get something bite on. Ill go see a GP when I can. Thank you again.

    Yes I have alot of sexual fantasies. No I do not feel guilty about them one bit. I tell my friends all about it in excruciating detail.

    Seconding the chillow, I got this cause I suffer from migraines, it stays cold all night. Have been using it for the last few nights as well to keep cool. I can't open the window for the last few nights due to gale force winds, the clothes line is already 3 gardens away.

    Obviously not good enough. As a favour I could come 'round and film them in Hi-Def. Then we could have a few cans, watch them on the TV and discuss them further.


    Sound good?

    Maybe it's time you went to a Doctor and stopped asking for medical advice on the biggest farce of a forum on boards :P

    Have you been stressed lately/ Did something significant happen to you recently?
