I am 8 wks postop and have started to have night sweats each night.

During the day I freeze a lot (metabolic changes) and go to bed to warm up only to wake 2 - 3 hrs later drenched with sweat. I have to change night clothes. My hair is even wet. I read that this could be high blood sugar. I have never had a problem with diabetes. Could the surgery bring on high blood sugar? I am in my late 40's and used to have regular periods before surgery. I haven't had one since surgery. Could I be having menopausal symptoms? I have never experienced a hot flash so I don't know if night sweats are like them or not. Anybody have this experience?
