Members responded to someone experiencing unusual one-sided head sweating by sharing their own strange sweating patterns, including night sweats only below the waist, drenched upper backs, and soaked hair that appears suddenly and without warning. Several members mentioned possible causes their doctors had suggested, such as fibromyalgia, hormone imbalances, medication side effects, and water retention issues, though many admitted their providers had no clear answers. A recurring theme was the frustration and embarrassment of these unpredictable symptoms, with members finding comfort in knowing they were not alone in experiencing bizarre and poorly understood sweating episodes.

Not like that, but I get night sweats and only sweat from the waist down. My doc laughed and said it was probably the fibro, but I might just be having HALF of a hot flash! The little bugger, he just chuckled.

Well my mom had swelling on one side of her jaw. Dr said it was a hormone imbalance because of post menopausal issues.

I am in a water pill. All I drink is water, alot, all day.

I find it very strange myself, It is very embarrassing.
I asked the doctor and she has no idea either. Except that my hormones may be out of wack. I hate this, the not knowing why, the strange symptoms with Fibro sucks.
