Profuse Sweating - Page 2

Awww man, I just thought it was because I live on the surface of the fucking sun (or so it seems sometimes, esp today. 116F). I guess it might be the dope too.

Face and neck generally drench - comes and goes with no predictable antecedent. Like moving around or even just thinking hard.
Then again I get chills too.
I think mine is an inner thermal regulation malfunction amped up with opiates.

couple of times ive sweated alot, that becuase I took alot, if i take normal dose no sweating at all

I don't sweat all that much, but damn do I get hot!! I find it's usually when I start coming down that I start getting hot. I just hate that because the people that don't know about my "hobby" just laugh at me and tell me I'm having hot flashes!

Me too. Oxycodone and bupe seem to be the worst.

Yep, me, too - I get the "Opiate Sweats." The only time I really notice, thank goodness, is when I get up and take my middle-of-the-night pill dose (woowoo, you're really right on with your comments about using in the middle of the night. I haven't had 8 straight hours of sleep since 2004).

I set my internal clock to wake up in the middle of the night, I get up and use the bathroom and take my next dose. By that point, I'm feeling cold, clammy and with very slight w/ds setting in.... but then I'll wake up 2-3 hours later and am covered in sweat from when the opiates kicked in. I'll be sweating everywhere, but the back of my neck is worst... I always assumed it was because I have long, heavy hair... kinda like having a cat draped around my neck. Sounds like it might be the opiates, too.

Personally, I'd rather win a wet t-shirt contest from sweating than go into w/ds.

Too funny...Im the same way but only with Oxy. A friend of mine knew I was taking percs and noticed I really was sweating like crazy so he coined the term "Percosweats" lol

I've never had a huge problem with sweating while using. I have noticed though, since starting on Suboxone maintenance on Monday, that about fifteen minutes after my dose, I get a really hypoglycaemic feel. You know, dizzy, pale, really clammy sort of thing. The clammy sweats last about an hour, and then go away again. I notice it every morning after dosing as I'm walking into town from the clinic.
