WTF it's the "big chill" here in NH and I was feeling like its summer! ::)  Of course it sparked a CH tooooooooooooooooooooooo early in the day for me (I usually start meeting with the beast around 12ish or sometimes he's late and comes around 2)  GRRRRRRR  Just keep telling myself to be patient with the meds they are gonna work, they are gonna work, they are gonna work!!!!!!!!!!!!

Started a 10 pred taper on monday.  Started 80mg of Verapmil 3x a day on tuesday.  Zomig NS 2 x a day (8 hrs apart minimum) as an abort and o2.  No flu shot, I hope to hell I am not getting the damn flu!

Oh Tara, I hope you are not getting the flu either.  Be careful and take care of yourself.  Hope you are feeling better soon!

I'd bet a paycheck it is the effects of the prednisone.

Well Tarara~~boomdeee~ay... welcome to woman hood... Sweating in the night is usually some hormonal thing but I checked your age and you are way too young for hot flashes... Night sweats can be a sign of other problems though, so be sure to tell your doc about it next time... Could be your thyroid or something... get it checked out... Could possibly be something as simple as a side effect from meds too...
Feel bettah honey.............love ree

Would I be correct if I deduced that the word HARMONES is not derived from the word HARMONIOUS   ;;D

Hey Tara,

I used to get those when I was on verapamil.  I'd get them in the middle of the day too!  The joys of taking meds!  To be safe, be sure to talk to your doc about it.


hugs
Ann

Thanks guy and gals.  Yeah I don't think its the flu cause if I had it I'd know by now.  Must be the Meds.  I was reading with Pred u are susceptible to getting sick easier (lowers your immune system) and my brother in law was here yesterday and he had the flu.....I was not impressed cause I don't want my kids getting it either!  Wanna know what he  said to me?  "I'd rather have a headache anyday over the flu!"  Pissed me right off!

prednisone makes me sweat in middle of night very similar to hot flashes.  It appears in the other posts you are probably too young for hot flashes, unless you've had a hysterectomy and are on hormones.

my guess...prednisone.

good luck and pf vibes headed your way
renee
