Hello,
I need help, for the past week everytime I go to sleep I am sweating so bad that I have to change my clothes...I have a fan in my room and no heat on. I am sweating from the back of my neck, my breats and my arms legs etc.. then when I get up always at approx 2am, I have a headach and the next day and very sluggish and don't want to do anything. I have looked this up myself and I don't know what it is. I am only 33 year old female.
I am awaiting a surgery to see if I have endemetriosis.. however this just started and I am on pain management on Talwin everyday(not sure if this has an effect?) but I have been on that for about a month now.

Any suggestions would be helpful

See another doctor if you think the one you are seeing is wrong.
