Hot And Sweaty

Anyone else have the problem of breaking out in a sweat just sitting in your air conditioned house?
I walk outside and the next thing you know I am dripping wet.

I went to Florida last week, have never experienced sweating like I did down there. Realized I can’t handle their summer climate! Really fatigued me!

Mostly on the days I take Dexamethasone it’s just awful how the sweat will just pour out of my head especially my hairline….

I do think chemo has a lot to do with it. It is embarrassing to go somewhere and you are dripping wet but with that said the alternative would be worse!

I use to enjoy being outside in the summertime. We had a pool we used everyday. But the heat gets to me in a hurry now. I still enjoy being out but in the shade or later in the day! I’m only on maintenance Revlimid but my body doesn’t regulate temperature the way it use to.

I’ve been off all MM meds for a year and I continue with mild hot flashes at night - around 10 or so. Laying on the sofa watching tv with a light blanket and then need to get it off in a hurry. Eventually get cold due to the ceiling fan, blanket back on and repeat again in 30 minutes or so. I continue with oxycodone for neuropathy pain and wondered if it’s my evening dose wearing off - could be a residual from treatment D+RVD
