Nights sweats are common with Sleep Apnea


I have a CPAP. But I sleep worse with it so I don't use it.


Maybe if you'd use it you wouldn't have night sweats


I stopped using my cpap years ago. Sweats just started. Don't think they're related

Thanks. Hope you get your situation figured out (but seriously, I'd see if the cpap helps)

I know you said you were sweating prior to stopping the Lexapro, but I just want to point out that disrupted sleep and night sweats can occur when you stop Lexapro. Just mentioning it in case you had some normal amount of night sweating then it worsened since you stopped.

Depending on what dose you were on, how long you were on it and how quickly you came off of it, it is hard to say how long it would last after your last dose.

I had a long episode of that when I had a flare up of my autoimmune. I also had a friend who had night sweats because of lack of sleep, stress and anxiety. Getting more sleep for her made all the difference.

I've had a few rounds of night sweat and it always seemed to sync up with stress

I hear Richard Hendricks had a bout with night sweats. Pretty sure his doctor told him to be careful, that any increase in his stress level would lead to peeing the bed. Something to think about.

I quit drinking last August and had similar night sweats all through last winter. Finally went to the Dr and found that my thyroid number was very low and my glucose level was off the charts high (722). Started treating both conditions the sweats gradually got better an finally went away almost completely.

Just left the doctor. They took away some of my blood. Checking A1C and chrons, among other things. Also talk of a colonoscopy.

So for about the past month I've woken up coved in sweat. It only happens between like 4-7 am. It's not a small amount, either. Does anyone know what could be causing this? Stress possibly? I'm tired of washing my sheets every 2 days.


You need to have it checked out including blood work. I was experiencing night sweats and fatigue. Turns out I have a rare blood disorder called Polycythemia Vera. That is a complicated way of saying my bone marrow makes too many red blood cells (thick blood), which can lead to clotting, heart attack or stroke. Caught early and managing with meds and periodic phlebotomies. It's is chronic and progressive so I see a hematologist quarterly. Under control and feeling good.

Periodic lobotomies?

Probably need a lobotomy but I make trips to the local blood center to have blood drawn to reduce volume.
