I changed different brand to see if the effect are the same, I took the pill in different time of a day to see if my sleep could improve, I hold an ice bag to sleep with me to ease the hotness.

It's embassarred sweat in a sudden, and my forehead with short hair, dripping with sweat. I had customer came into me, and I went into panic and sweat again. :(
It seems I can't do too much at all, in terms of work and housework. I sweat now even in an air-conditioned room.
Well like Robyn, I still new to the medicine, I hope it'll settle down little by little later on.
Take care
