I’m hopeful you learned something and are doing better. I’m going through very similar stuff and your comment of “naked in a snow storm” yet with a core that’s burning up is exactly me, but with a sense of feeling very poorly/sick which you seem to also have. ?

I may be posting in the wrong group, I’m mostly just responding to your write up. I have had test on kidney, stomach, colonoscopy, blood work, with only small to no no finding. The Endocrine system has not come up in doctors discussions, but I do get testosterone shots every two weeks.

I’m 66, male, and was healthy and doing most anything I wanted to do, but in July 2022 I first started to sweat excessively with minor activity. This grew to having a core that is always hot, excessive sweating at night where (usually around 2am) I have to get up to change t-shirts, I’m incredibly sick feeling, and morning comes where again I’m sick feeling and have to change t-shirts because I’m soaked.

Morning is the worse, I hate the start of every day, no quality of life, tired all the time, brain fog, usually the 2 AM deal is complimented with such a high level of distress and heat that it takes hours before I go back to sleep. My Apple Watch backs up my awake hours.

I just don’t see many post that describe profuse sweating with Core Heat and sick/discomfort. My blood work shows CKD3a, a low platelet count but just a little low, otherwise not very remarkable.

Sweats without such discomfort would be no big deal, but sweats with extreme discomfort, core heat, extreme sick feeling, exhaustion, makes it hard to do anything of significance.

Hi @gt350, Unfortunately I don't think @dschmidt91 is still following Connect since their last post was in 2021. Did you see Colleen's reply to the members discussion at the top where she referenced 2 links that might be helpful? - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/comment/653815/.
