Does Synthroid And Amlodipine Intake Result In Severe Sweating Post COPD Surgery?
I am 73 years old, I am getting sweats on and off throughout the day, I have been over the hot flashes for a long time but I do have COPD and just had surgery for a fractured hip 3 months ago. I am on Pain pills and take Tylenol during the day, I take the generic for synthroid, and take amlodipine for high blood pressure and that is all the meds I take, the sweats just started about a week ago.

Hello
Thank you for asking in HCM.
Your COPD what grade or stage is?Are you already treating the COPD? If you have a stable COPD and the cough the sputum or the difficulty in breathing are not worsened then the sweats are not related with lung disease.May be you have to control arterial pressure more.
You should further do a chest X Ray,a blood test CRP.
Thank you
