So some of u know I gained 40 pounds from medicine. I went from trying to gain weight at 110 to now 150.

Sorry to ask such a stupid question I've Just never had to deal with this

Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated! At night I go through 3 - 4 pillows and must change my night clothes, its quite bad during the day also (to the point of being embarrassment). Sometimes my sheets are soaked from my ankles to my head. I can actually see the out line of my body.

I got cold and couldnt get warm and felt weak. Eventually i warmed up But now my whole body feels numb and on fire at the same time. My muscles occasionally twich and and Im drained. I cant get comfortable at all.
