I am a 38 year old lady, healthy and been having night sweats for the last one year. I don t have a fever, cough and have not lost any weight. I exercise often, eat well but I am naturally slim, I was found to have latent TB 4 years ago but was advised that I do not need treatment for it. I have a sister with type 1 diabetes mellitus. I am concerned about the night sweats and I do not believe they are due to environment. What is your advise?
Hello. I have gone through your question. As I see you are worried about Tuberculosis. Latent TB does not require treatment as it is the active TB that requires treatment. It is very rare that you have developed Type 1 diabetes mellitus as 95% of people develop type 1 diabetes before the age of 25 years. Now for your night sweats I need more information from you:-1. Are you taking some depression medications?2. Are you taking Chat Doctor?  Are you taking any diabetic medications?4. Are your menses normal? Please provide me with the answers to above-mentioned questions so that I can help you. Please feel free to contact me. Thanks and wish you good health.
