It was so bad last night it woke me up three times.

I am right now in a place where it's ten degrees outside and I keep heating up, sweating sheets, cooling back down, over and over and over again.

It's so bad I can feel my face is like, sticky as if I've been out in the desert sweating for ten hours.

NOTHING stops this but bactrim -- I think, or maybe it just comes in waves.

What is the mechanism that causes this, does anyone know?

Thank you Tincup.

Besides lying in a snowdrift, is there any symptomatic relief published anywhere?

I have artemisinin sitting on my nightstand but I'm afraid to take it without talking to the doc.

One thing that did help me with the sweating is a natural hormone, Bi-est. It's a compound cream. My regular obgyn wrote a rx for it. I think lyme and company really screw up our hormones, along with the sweating from the disease itself.

I had my hormones tested first... and they were zero to low on all of them. Estrogen, Progesterone and Testosterone.

It really helped me. Might not with others...we all react so differently.

Lyme, Babs, Fry Bug..... Whatever it is, may a treatment be discovered to make us all whole again!

Babesia for me, too. Very bad sweats at times, and I was like dead tired after.

I took Riamet for 3 days, then sweat the hell out in these days. Then all that was gone, like magic. That convinced me I had babesia!!!

but 2 weeks later, babesia came back, but anyway, at that point, I knew it was babesia. I never had those awful sweats so badly as at first.

I would try artemisia annua in decoction. Buy Buhner's books. Artemisinin is too harsh, and will never put babs alone in remission. Artemisia annua is easier to take, I find...

Cardamon helped me too, with babesia. And Noni tincture. I self-treated when I was waiting for help, anyway. Buhner gave me inspiration!!

Like Brussels, my sweats were also due to Babesia.

Most of it was night sweats for me and treating babesia was the answer for me and do have it all knocked in remission.

But my heart goes out to you since it's a rough symptom. Hang in there. It does get better.

I use Sida Acuta for Babs as well as Artemisinin. Sida Acuta is available on Etsy. I found a few months ago that it was hard to find.
