Night Sweats/Fever What is it?
My Mother is going to be 87 and I am sure she is dying BUT, I guess we want to know what is wrong with her. The doctor for the past month doesn't know. I give up. These are her symptoms. She has nights sweats each and every night for the past month. They are so bad that she has to change about 3 times a night. She gets a fever every night for the past month. Always at night. About 100.4 or 101.4. Headache starts about 5:00 in the morning and continues on for about 1/2 of the day. She is healthly, has never complained in her life. She a stroke last year but came out of it perfect. She takes a antidepressant, heart pill, high blood pressure and that is about it. The doctor took her blood twice for about 25 things and said she was low in sodium, that was it. Her lungs are clear, my neighbor swears she has TB, but the lung ex-ray proved that wrong. She is scheduled for a CAT Scan of her head soon, but we are sure worried. My sister is going to see her tomorrow, she lives with my cousin and she doesn't know what to do with her, my Mom just doesn't want to go the hospital, she says what can they do. She weights 85 pounds and is losing as I type. She is not hungry at all, nothing sounds good and she feels most of the time sick to her stomach.
