Night Sweats
Causes and How to Cope
You wake up in the middle of the night, cold, clammy and uncomfortable. Your night clothes are soaked. The damp bed sheets cling to you. Worst of all, by the time you get up, change your night clothes, change the bed and snuggle under the blankets again, you're wide awake. A lot of the time it's almost impossible to get back to sleep. Disturbed sleep - that's why, even though night sweats isn't actually a sleep disorder, I chose to discuss it here.
Night sweats, or nocturnal hyperhydrosis, can be caused by many things. Sweating is a natural body function, but if it becomes bad enough to wake you up night after night, wet and shivering, it has gone beyond "natural." Stanford Medical Center lists the following as possible causes:
Any illness where you suffer from a fever.
Diabetes Insipidus
Hyperthyroidism
Secretion from certain cells in the brain
Anemia
Hypothalamic lesions
Epilepsy
Strokes
Cerebral palsy
Migraine
Spinal cord infarction
Head injury
Familial dysautomia
Anti-nausea medication used in pregnancy
Obstructive sleep apnea

If u are female and menapausal you are probably having hot flashes. Are you diabetic? If so, your blood sugar is dropping too low and you will sweat and may feel hungry. Get up and eat domething. Too many blankets? Heat turned too high? Using an electric blanket? If these don't sond like the answers you need to see your doctor NOW.
