jaguarandcubs"MDJ is an integral part of my everyday life. Since joining in 2010, I have met so many amazing people. It is truly incredible to be able to share good times and not so good times with others who face the same health challenges. And MDJ has support groups for every condition I have. I don't know of anywhere else that can offer that. I love that I can learn from others as well as offer my own experiences for others to learn from." (jaguarandcubs)

Anyone suffering from some serious night sweats or do I need to go to the "women's" section?

Hi Joflower,

There are lots who suffer the "night sweats" most suffer from Babesiosis, however there is always the chance that its change of life and I would have it checked with a simple blood test.

Yes, I have had them severely for about 5 yrs. My sheets would be drenched. It was as if I just ran 10 miles. Found out I had babesia and thats what was causing them. You should get tested for that. I've been doing much better. In fact since I've been getting treated for Babesia over the last couple yrs for the first time this past month I haven't had any! Good luckSmile

Wink Funny how night sweats can be so annoying. I haven't had any drenching night sweats for about a month now. It's great. Woohoo!

Yes, I was checked for perimenopause and that came out negative a few years ago. Did that at same time I was dealing w/Lyme just to make sure.

Wish you all the best.Smile
