No, that's not exactly what I said. What I was talking about was if a woman had been to a doctor and been tested for EVERYTHING, and could not find anything wrong. Night sweats are symptoms of many things. HIV, diabetes, Hodgkins disease, TB, hepatitis, menopause, and sleep apnea among other things. It is very important to have tests done to rule everything out. I was basically telling my story. And it is not hype. I'm not trying to sell anything, because I'm not a salesperson. I'm just hoping I can help someone out there suffering like I was. I had terrible night sweats for over 4 years. I went to several doctors and had many, many tests done. All my doctors were completely baffled. What was happening to me was real, but no one could find a cause or a cure. All of my hormone tests were normal, but my progesterone was never tested. I could go on and on, but I won't. When you are a woman like me, going through what I was going through, you're willing to try anything-hype or not. But you're not, so I don't expect you to understand.
