Night Sweats

Prior to diagnoses 3 or 4 years ago I would wake every hour having to change my t-shirt or PJ top which was ringing wet with sweat. When celiac was confirmed and I went totally gluten-free, It stopped after the 3rd gluten-free day. A few weeks ago it started

happening again although not as bad. I only wake 2 or 3 times instead 7 or 8. Still I have to wonder if this is a sign of something else, perhaps a new allergy or intolerance to something. Doc's are pretty much clueless.

Any ideas?

Are you sure you're 100% gluten free?

Do you have any other symptoms?

I had night sweats due to Babesia (a Lyme Disease coinfection). They were drenching just like you describe. You can read the other Lyme symptoms on the Lyme Disease thread in the Leaky Gut forum.

The other thing could be something like mold exposure. I had a Sleep Number bed that was full of mold. That kind of mold can cause health problems, including night sweats. You might check out www.biotoxin.info for more info on what biotoxins can do.

Gluten can cause the biotoxins as well, so that could be the reason that the sweats stopped for a time when the gluten was removed from your diet. Then they came back when the other toxins built up. Just a theory.

Thanks much Carla

I'm sure the gluten-free is not an issue as I'm extremely sensitive and extremely careful. Mold on the other hand has been a huge problem for the past 3 months. Strange weather here in Kona combined with the volcano emissions has been affecting almost everyone. Did kill it in one room but have a few others to go. Didn't link the mold and sweats so this is a BIG help!

thanks again

Hi Ken, have you had your thyroid checked recently? Sometimes thyroid problems can cause sweating.

I get night sweats too randomly and I can't figure it out. Like you, my night sweats stopped when I went gluten free, but I'll have a few weeks where it will happen every night and then it goes away again. Evening primrose oil seems to help. Thanks for the post, I thought it was just me.

I get night sweats also, when I am glutened. I have a thyroid nodule and I think the sweats are caused by hyperthyroid reactions to the gluten. I get the sweats after eating also. I just started hypertension meds, but I don't know if high blood pressure has a possible relation or not.

      They both do. The peanuts add nutrients to the treat. Tootsie Roll: Sugar, Corn Syrup, Palm Oil, Condensed Skim Milk, Cocoa, Whey, Soy Lecithin, Artificial and Natural Flavors.

      But M&M's contain milk, and would not be at all like a Tootsie Roll.

      I appreciate you validating me because medical is an issue and it's not ok at all they they do this. Some days I just want to call the news media and just call out these doctors especially when they are supposed to be specialist Downplaying when gluten-free when they should know gluten-free is false negative. Now dealing with other issues and still crickets...

      M&M Peanuts. About the same calories and sugar while M&M Peanuts have fiber, potassium, iron and protein that Tootsie Rolls ("We are currently producing more than 50 million Tootsie Rolls each day.") don't. Click the links to compare nutritional values. Both are made with sugar, not high fructose corn syrup. I use them as a gluten free substitute...

      I see it everyday on my feeds. They go out and buy gluten-free processed products and wonder why they can't heal their guts. I don't think they take it as a serious immune disease. They pick up things off the internet which is so far out in left field. Some days I would just like to scream. So much better when we had support groups and being able to teach...

Now im having care because my head is affected either ms or meningioma in go in tomorrow again for more scans.I know im slowly dying and im looking like a disability chaser

While I get heartburn at night from commercial dairy milk, I do not from 'grassmilk'.

I just had an EMA blood test because I haven't had one since my Doctor moved away.  Got test results today, doctor ordered a D3 vitamin test.  Now you know what  type of doctors we have.  Now I will have to pay for this test because she just tested my D3 end of December, and still have no idea about my EMA.
