Members shared deeply relatable experiences with excessive sweating triggered by minimal activities like cooking, standing in church, or showering, describing embarrassing moments of being drenched in public and feeling their energy drain with every drop. Several members identified potential causes, including PAH medications like Adempas, certain foods, elevated heart rate and blood pressure, and the physical strain of daily tasks that feel amplified by the condition. A recurring theme was the relief of realizing they were not alone in this frustrating symptom and the importance of bringing it up with their doctors for further discussion.

AnnRSmith, I have nighttime hot flashes. The pharmacist at Accredo said it could be from the Adempas that you and I are taking.

I still exercise and don't perspire. I know people taking anti-depressants because of the anxiety etc. associated with PAH. Perspiration is a side effect of many anti-depressants.

I have had some night sweats. Wasn't sure what to attribute it to. I'm long past menopause stage. I knew it wasn't that.

Certain foods cause me to get flush, hot and perspire. Thai and Indian food, which I love to eat. A question just hit me. I read a lot about breathing problems. I am on oxygen but when I get up to go to the bathroom I take it off. I was also working on my pool filter the other day and I took it off because it was annoying. In air conditioning my oximeter runs between 97-99.. Does anyone use a nebulizer. I use levalbuteral in my nebulizer and take a dose every 8-12 hours. When I hear people saying the slightest exercise affects their breathing I wonder if they use a nebulizer or rescue inhaler.
