New symptom
 
I know that along with high blood pressure comes sweating. I bought myself a monitor a couple of yrs ago when my low pressure started and the hospital needed a record of it, saving many trips to the GP.

So I have been monitoring again and my BP has been consistently 90/60.

Low I know, but I am sweating to the point where I am soaking wet. I need to shower 3-4 times a day just to feel ok.

Any ideas?

I had the same early on - my GP said it was probably a hormone imbalance could be the same for you?

Sospan,

Did your physician followup with any sort of hormone-panel tests?
(I asked, got nowhere on that one. Perhaps others have more advanced, better-trained, better-educated physicians re: these matters.)

Theta ;)

Nope, nothing, after 9 months still waiting for a proper examination. My GP's are too frightened to recommend anything until I have seen a Neurologist.

Hence I drift in and out of the forum to understand as much as I can.

BTW Headway uk has this information on hormone imbalance Fatigue. Excessive tiredness is common to all severities of brain injury,

I am freezing cold most of the time now, even with the heating on and several layers. But when I wake in the morning I'm so hot I have to have a cold shower sometimes. I rarely seem to be a comfortable temp, only extremes, and I don't know why.

Weird - I guess that is completly different than the way you were before ?

Hormones
 
Mark in Idaho has posted several posts with regard to a hormone panel test. Early in my recovery I had a similar sweaty issue. After 6 weeks or so I moderated. I still feel alittle out of whack from time to time.
