Nightsweats
There was an old thread on this, yet I didn't want to trail on the coattails of someone else. In case a different solution has come up since then.
Anyway, I am a 30 year old male. Yes you read that correctly, and I am having somewhat consistent Night sweats. My wife randomly jokes that I am suffering from menopause, yet its starting to bother me now.
My knowledge as to how long I've been dealing with this is unknown, yet I've had this since my wife started telling me about it. Who knows maybe she's the cause :p
As you can already tell I am somewhat of a smart-alec and sometimes crude in how I voice myself. Please forgive me if I come across sounding like this, I'll do my best in not trying to sound like a snot.
Yet back to what I started with. Its not something that happens every night. It can be every night, every other night, and sometimes I go month's without an episode.
I've spoken to my doctor for fear of tuberculosis. I am a TB converter, meaning I have been exposed to it yet I took the meds for 7 months and its dormant. At least I hope so. Yet the doctor's say if I was active with TB I would be showing at least 3 signs, and not just one.
So far I have tried keeping the windows open, and the room down to 60 degrees if not colder, and I can still find myself is a rather good size puddle of sweat.
If I could make the room colder I would, yet the wife would complain about it. Wife says I put off a lot of excessive body heat. Which makes her happy when crawlin into a cold bed, yet not too happy when I get shoved to the corner of the bed because its soaked in sweat.
Worklife I am currently enlisted in the U.S. Navy. I've served 12 years thus far, and plan on doing the remaining 8 for retirement.
Homelife, married for 5 years and have twin 5 month old girls.
Any info as to what I can do to resolve this is Highly appreciated.
