Post Covid sweating: Is this common for others too?

I am so happy that I found this thread! I thought I was going out of my mind! I have been sweating profusely, sometimes with exertion and sometimes without. I thought maybe it was a side effect of medication I'm taking. I had a mild version of coronavirus at Christmas, 2020. I had mono, documented at two different times, in highschool. I figured coronavirus reactivated the EBV, and I have experienced extreme fatigue as a result. However, I didn't associate the profuse sweating with long-term coronavirus. I have also experienced mild vertigo, which comes and goes.

I HAVE READ MEDICAL ABSTRACTS THAT FOUND COVID ALSO ACTIVATED EPSTEIN BARR VIRUS AS WELL.LETS HOPE WE ARE ALL WELL FOR THE HOLIDAYS.

I don't sweat, I rain.

Does your sweating come at anytime? Are you drenched as if you got out of a pool? When you sweat are you freezing? And how long does the sweating go one for? How consistent are your sweating episodes? Do you crave salt?
I have no triggers, no warning when the sweating occurs. My heart rate spikes to 120 to 170. The longest the sweating has lasted was 2 hours. When I sweat it literally looks as if I got out of a pool.

me too
What was your diagnosis? I am getting the run around like you would not believe.

I am on metoprolol 25 mg/day (I am only 23 years old). The medication only helps with my heart rate. I can be doing NOTHING and my iPhone will ding to tell my my resting heart rate has been above 120 beats/min for 20 minutes.

I feel completely defeated.

I don't have any kind of a diagnosis for the sweating specifically, just the broad diagnosis of Post Acute Covid Syndrome (PACS).I keep a log in a calendar book of what symptoms I have daily. I am up to ~30 different issues that coincide with CDC's list. I am keeping a log because, as an ER nurse caring for multiple COVID patients at a time through each shift in 2020, I became sick in the line of duty at work. I have a complicated work comp claim as I haven't been able to return to work in any capacity. In the meantime, I just start sweating for no reason and do a lot of laundry.

I didn't know my knee-caps could sweat-pretty perfuse. As far as the heart rate goes, I am better since being on Metoprolol from the cardiologist. I had a '21-day event monitor' on & it documented the runs of tachycardia (a heart rate greater that 100 beats per minute) up to 180 that was disproportionate to my activity. The 'official' diagnosis for me is 'Inappropriate Sinus Tachycardia'.

That is exactly what they diagnosis too. IST is only a hair difference to Post-COVID POTS. I get it that there is not enough data to really help me/us with treatment or a cure. I feel so defeated and at my wits end.
I have had an extensive cardiac work-up
48 hour monitor
30 day monitor - a lot of runs of supraventricular tachycardia
echocardiogram
I have had just about all lab tests
Stress test -I failed
6 minute walk- I failed
CT-angiogram - think goodness there is no damage to my heart.
MRI of the chest

It has been an experience and with no treatment plan.
