Post Covid sweating: Is this common for others too?

Posted by dr4bama @dr4bama, Jul 14, 2022

I am experiencing profuse sweating off during the day and nightly. Is this common post Covid?

My mom gets hot flashes and she had COVID.

This is probably not the case for most people with night sweats, but 1% of people who have had Covid may develop seizures. In my case, if I have sleep seizure, I wake up in a bed completely soaked in sweat. This does not happen to me during the day. I normally do not sweat much at all. If I wake up to a soaking wet bed I know I’ve had a sleep seizure.

I’m going through the same thing since covid infection in 2022. It started right away after getting sick and I still get bouts of sweating mostly at night but I also have palpitations and tremors, I haven’t asked for help with it but I mentioned it to my doctor, I only had some heart tests to rule out other problems. I can only say that I have tried to adapt to the “new “ me and I don’t want to go on more meds that might work or not, nothing is the same anymore and I believe that many of us are very changed since covid. I don’t know how this will work out, I just keep fighting back and I can hopefully move forward, I know it’s hard to cope sometimes with all these things happening but that’s why I come here so that I might learn from other people how they are managing, at least there’s some comfort in numbers so it doesn’t feel so scary, I hope you will find the best solutions for your problems,
