[sci.med.aids] Night Sweats

The.Bird@f38.n135.z1.fidonet.org (The "Bird") (11/02/90)

For quite some time now I have had to sleep with a doubled up towel on my 
pillow and sometimes awake with it soaking wet. I don't have a fever when this 
occurs and it is never a sweat below my neck or shoulders. Other than the fact 
that this is a symptom of HIV, do "they" know what causes it or have any idea 
how to prevent the symptoms? I know it's just a big inconvenience (relative to 
other HIV problems) and I drink plenty of liquids to recover the loss. I'm 
just curious. My visiting nurse says it's also a symptom of TB but I had a 
chest Xray in January with negative results.

Thanks for any replies in advance...."Bird"
