What Causes Cold Sweats At Nights?
Hi, I was bullimic for 2 years and I am now recovering, I use to induce vomitting and take laxatives a few times everyday. A little over a month ago I quit using laxatives and started seeing a councillor but every single night for the past 6 weeks I wake up in cold sweats, sometimes I wake up completely drenced. Any ideas what is causing this? I have continued to have low blood sugar also.

Thank you for asking Q
your symptom of cold sweat , most possibly,is due to low sugar level, so check your blood sugar during that time when you feel these symptoms and
if low you can take some fruit juice or some sweets,it will subside your symptoms and you will feel better within minutes.
Thank you,
