A note about sweating . . . especially for those of you on Pred or who might have orthostatic problems.

Sweating can be a sign of LOTS of stuff, not just Mestinon side effects. It can be a sign of hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) or diabetes. It can reflect infection, hormone swings, heart problems and lots of other stuff.

If you have ANY new symptoms, talk to your primary doctor and/or neuro about it. DO NOT assume it is just a side effect of a drug.
