I have trouble sleeping at night even though I take my hydrocortisone at 4:00p.m. and take something to help me sleep, because I sweat at night only when I am in a good sleep. Trying to get back to sleep, I am cold. I sleep with the AC on 69 degrees F using only a sheet to cover me at night. What would cause this?

Hi there- sorry i don't know that answer....
its not very nice is it? I sometimes get night sweats but only my legs! i think it is from the antidepressant i take- i think i read this is one of the side effects.
is there some med you are taking that lists this as a side effect?

I am on cymbalta. Would that do it?

Hi- i'm sorry- i haven't heard of that med....have you been able to research its side effects?

Have you been tested for Babesia? It is common in Louisiana, and night sweats are the main symptom. there is a doctor named Dr. forester in Pineville who treats it. He is also a very good doctor for other health problems too. Sarah

Hi again- i just read that an "infrequent" side effect on Cymbalta is night sweats.

thanks
I can't wait to get off of this, but my doc says I need to wait a little longer. I guess it has to do with my crying in his office over the 20 lbs. I have gained since being on cortisone.
