Sweats

Thanks everybody for the comments. Makes me feel not so lonely. Went to dr today and she gave me more antibiotics. Said she wished they would get it together cause she hates putting me on more cause one of these days they won't work anymore. Also my ana was almost 13000. I'm guessing that is way high.

I don't know that it necessarily indicates a flare. I've never noticed that connection. But, sweats? Yes indeed! And, like you said, almost any amount of excursion and you really sweat. That has been the case for me for the past 5 years.

I had sweats mostly at night. i would soak my pillow and sheets. after my WG got under control I haven't had much of an issue with it.

I'm basically in remission but I have constant night sweats. Very annoying

They've been pretty much constant since I was diagnosed in 2010.

For me the night sweats happened with WG and sweating during the day with pred. . Yes, it was really embaressing.
A tactic that I used was to carry changes of shirts with me all the time and just keep changing shirts as needed.
I still carry spare shirts in my car. It should get better when you can decrease your prednisone.

I am so glad this post is here! YES, I sweat, sometimes worse then others, I feel pred. helps with this. It is when I am amoldering or flaring, which seems like all the time lately!

This is me too. Pretty much gone once I was off the pred finally.

I've gotten sweats mainly at night when having flares, or originally while sick before dx and on no meds. Once in awhile, though, during the day, which I guess could be from the pred, but just not as extreme as what some have mentioned. Not to where I have to bring extra clothes anywhere, or beads of sweat running down my face, but just to the point of being a bit uncomfortable. Actually, for me, less problematic than menopause hot flashes were. Everyone is different.
