mds and night sweats...

I have MDS and not the night sweat issue, that I did have going thru menopause....the drench thru a nightie kind. Gross! Menopause lasted YEARS for me! I'm now 53...Occasionally I have mild night sweating, but I sleep alone and think it's because at a certain point at night, my body has finally heated up the bed, the heat just came on, and I'm overdressed! I'm on rd 4 of Vidaza and nothing sweaty noted. I did, however, run a low grade temp last month (99's) ...the past few weeks, I am below normal.
I think Vidaza definitely messes with your temperature...and I've had a few fevers too...Good luck and maybe a terry cloth nightgown is in order!
