Dr. Fox’s online pharmacy consultant, Deborah Lee, spoke of a sign of a deadly disease that worsens at night. This is hyperhidrosis during sleep, or simply excessive night sweats. The Daily Express writes about it.
She says GPs refer to hyperhidrosis during sleep as a ‘red flag’ symptom. In some cases, this signals serious oncological diseases: leukemia – blood cancer and lymphoma – cancer of the lymphatic system.
Night sweats should not be taken lightly, especially if they occur more than once a night and last for several weeks. Blitzwrites about this.
If the night sweats are so strong that they get out of bed to take a shower and change the sheets, this is another important signal from your body. Deborah Lee says that in cancer patients, excessive sweating is often accompanied by fever, fatigue, and itchy skin.
Again, don’t immediately think of cancer if you’re sweating. There may be other reasons that are unrelated to oncology. If this worries you, it is better to consult a doctor.
