Re: Night Sweats

Seelie, I recently have been getting night-sweats. The occaisional symptom started soon after I started Low Dose Naltrexone. I thought that my night-sweats were a side-effect of LDN, but after reviewing this thread, I think that Deb's (OddDuck) hypothesis makes more sense. In 2000 I participated in...

and I highly recommend letting it warm up to room temperature or even bod temperature before injecting. I put the syringe under my armpit for a few minutes before--much less pain. good luck with it! carolsue Yeah... What she said :) Except I've tricked my wife into warming it up for me in her hands...

Re: Night sweats

Seelie, do you take any other meds? If so what? I too was getting night sweats. I would sometimes wake being cold, I think because my pillow was so damp(yuck)! I have a couple of theories but depends on other meds. I take Betaseron but the sweats were occuring before I started it. Guess I can't bla...

The Sweats ::ick:::

I'm having night sweats and have had for some time. When you go look around at those 'diagnose thyself' websites... one usually finds - HIV (nope)... Menopause (very unlikely since I'm a guy)... blood sugar...and a few other unlikely maladies depending on the website... Looking around in the MS area...

My first symptoms were also of the vertigo variety - but I only noticed it at high speeds while driving. (un)fortunately soon thereafter, I started having real vision problems (nystagmus and diploplia) which was something tangible they could see and helped lead to a quicker diagnosis. Was really fru...

There's this stuff about enhancing that appears to be some sort of MRI contrast fluid also.... and a lot of it was in Me...
