I have had the profuse sweating for over a year now many times a day. I have not been sick in any other way. I can’t tell when it’s going to come on. It’s exhausting and very embarrassing. I don’t have any fever with any fever with it. I was not very sick at all with Covid when I had it last time it was after that time I had Covid, but it started.
I had covid-19 only 4 weeks ago in early Sept. 2024. Since I have recovered, I still sweat profusely whenever I exert myself a bit. My hair gets soaking wet, I feel nauseous, dizzy, weak and need to sit down for fear of fainting. I do not have a fever. I may use 3 or 4 tissues just to absorb some of the sweat as it pours down my face and wets my glasses. Will this ease up and go away. If I do a liver cleanse will that help?
Hello,
I have posed before about the sweating, but am now seeing more people with the same condition. Mine did not start right after my bout with covid, and unfortunately I did not document all of the issues that have arisen since then.
Having seen a holistic doctor, some of the symptoms have gone away, but the sweating persists. I tried hormone therapy, and since I had none when tested, I was hopeful the sweating would end. But no, it's still here.
I live in Florida, so I spend most of my time indoors. but even then, doing any home activity brings the water flowing. I take antidepressants and this has controlled the hot flashes to a great extent, but not the sweating. I keep hoping this will go away in time.
I’m newly diagnosed and have experienced this as well. I wish there was something I could do!
I don't that I get a fever and only sweat outdoors regardless of the temperature.If it's hot out I'll all of sudden start to sweat on top of the normal sweat from the heat.All upper body.

I'm usually a very "cold natured" person but when I had Covid this last time wearing anything more than undergarments made me feel like I was wearing a full length fur coat in the summer sun.
