Suggest Treatment For Bed Wetting And Night Sweats

Yes my son is 7 and seems to have excessive bedwetting at night (even through a pull up) , he also has horrible night sweats and I have tried limiting his fluids after a certain time, making sure he uses the restroom before bed, and sometimes even waking him in the middle of the night. Nothing seems to help and I don't wan't to overlook important signs of an real health issue.

Pediatrician 's  Response
I would suggest that you wake him up after 2 hrs of his sleep and ask him to use the wash room not take him to the wash room. he should be fully awake by himself to use the bath room. you may also try using the bed wetting alarm. You must give a positive reward for the dry nights. You may use a star char for this.The night sweats are signs of night terrors. Both this together does not seems to me of any serious health issue.
