Post Covid sweating: Is this common for others too?

Have you been diagnosed with POTS?
There are specialist in autonomic nervous system who can help you with this.. POTS is a whole conversation 😊, but maybe it helps to know that I drink lots of fluid, including electrolyte solution. I take medication to control my heart rhythm (beta blockers and at one time Ivabradine, (medicine for heart failure) to allow for better blood flow throughout the body. I slowly rehabbed so my activity level is better.
Best,

So sorry you are still struggling… it is awful. Sweating and all the post viral issues. Sending hope for better days.

COVID 2020 has changed my life so much I don't think I'll ever get it back...it took my energy and desire to do anything. I sweat profusely..... Brain fog.....dizziness.....balance issues. It didn't initially kill me but is it slowly ? I also believe I'm depressed.......

It’s so sad to hear that you are still suffering from this disease, I was so shocked to hear how very sick people are and still are with so little help available. I’ve read that some people are getting better on their own but no one’s ever quite the same, I mentioned that I had covid in 2022 and it left me with excessive sweating and rapid heartbeats, I was eventually referred to a cardiologist who ran tests on me and later said that my heart was fine but it beat too fast. I have asthma so I couldn’t take beta blockers because it affects the asthma, I was blessed that it calmed down after two years but I still don’t feel like myself anymore. There’s more research needed to get to know what can be done to help people like you, I hope that you will get better soon with proper help, please stay strong and try not to give up because it will get better, I will pray for you, better days ahead, amen.

Bless you for your prayers and kind words....I try everything I can. I even had vitamin infusions with zero difference early on because COVID depleted my vitamins. I'm taking all kinds of vitamins and manuka honey. Which honestly I do feel a gradual difference. Possibly a little energy I Pray to God. It's so gradual it's hard to tell. Also I haven't worked in 2 yrs. I never even tried to get assistance because my goal is to get moving and get back to work. Plus I figured no assistance for long haulers. Anyway thanks again for caring we need more people like you in this world🤗

You'll get it back...Dr Paul Anderson is your BEST person to go to on Youtube.He's the real thing.Go on there and check out his covid blogs.I KNOW he can help you.God Bless.

Thank you sooo much for telling me about him!! Prayers!!!!

I have the opposite problem. Developed LC 18 months ago and I haven't sweated (that I know of) since. I live in the south so I have to be really careful when I go outside in the summer. When it's 95 and humid, you can overheat fast without sweating. At least I don't have to take a shower as often. (silver lining).
I've read that sweating is controlled by the vagus nerve, so I guess both problems come from the same source. I wish that was my only symptom. Also have the fatigue, PEM, muscle weakness, messed up sleep. Good luck, my friend.

I sweat in air conditioning.....prayers to all of us . It's something how COVID has effected us so differently. But yes unfortunately the fatigue seems to be a common trait and brain fog.

I have found that propanolol helps me with stress as well. I also try and drink a lot of water. One of my symptoms of Long COVID is that if I drink ANYTHING other than water, I feel like I have a UTI. In 2023 I went to see a urologist, thinking I had a UTI, although my GP tested my urine and there was no bacteria. She said it sounded like interstitial cystitis. There was no evidence of that either, so I am sticking with water. I know it is the best thing to drink, but damn what I would give for some iced tea or a sprite.
