Members strongly related to the challenge of overheating from exertion, with many sharing that they feel hot almost constantly and sweat far more than they used to, initially mistaking it for hot flashes before realizing it might be connected to their condition. Several members described practical coping strategies, including keeping hand towels throughout their home and car, taking off shoes for relief, and advocating for cooler environments at work. A recurring theme was the frustration of sweating profusely from even minor activities like applying makeup or putting away laundry, with doctors often unable to find a clear cause, leaving members to adapt and find comfort in knowing they're not alone.

yes!! I also sweat more than I ever have. For a while I blamed it on hot flashes.

Yes! I have been to see the doc because I am sweating from my head and face more than ever from the smallest amount of work (e.g. putting on make up, putting away washing, hoovering etc.) Embarrassingly I have hand towels all through my flat, in my car, and I nearly always have one on me. I find it really difficult to cope with it some days. The doctors cant seem to find a cause so it looks like another thing I just need to get used to.

Sorry I can't help, just let you know you're not alone.
