I found this:
" Over time, insulin secretion becomes dysfunctional, resulting in a hypoglycemic state in the middle of the night. These symptoms are characterized by nightmares, anxiety, and night sweats. When this occurs, the body will have to activate the adrenals to put out more cortisol in order to raise the blood sugar back to its normal level. This will eventually put an excessive burden onto the already fatigued adrenal gland if carried on year after year."

Thanks Melanie... For a long time I thought my night sweats were from either bart or babs, but after years of aggressive treatment, I believe my lingering sweats are from hormonal imbalances, especially with the adrenal glands.
Just a thought.
