Ok, so the last 4 nights Ive been waking up with night sweats. Its gotten to a point where its starting to worry me. Ive had them before but its always been an isolated incident related to environment (room got too hot) or sickness. This latest night might be environmental because Im currently sleeping on a relatives couch for Thanksgiving.
Im in really good shape. Im 6'3 and 195 lbs. Im guessing Im between 12% to 15% body fat. I lift, do cardio, or play basketball 5 days a week. I definitely sweat more than the average person, especially at the gym.
Diet wise I eat very healthy. Probably between 2K to 2.5K calories a day. Eat mostly raw foods (vegetables, fruits nuts). Usually eat eggs in the morning. I might eat meat for 5 meals a week. Will eat fish semi regularly (every other day, anything from simple canned tuna to fresh caught fish). Will eat out once a week for something resembling a "cheat meal". I drink a post workout whey protein shake. I rarely drink. Maybe drink heavily (more than 3 drinks) to the point of being "drunk" twice a month at most. Will buy a 6 pack once or twice a month to drink a beer here and there on the random night.
As far as recent changes to lifestyle go, there are some things that have happened.

As far as recent changes to lifestyle go, there are some things that have happened.
- Monday I started taking creatine and bcaas as part of my pre workout routine (last took Wednesday, am stopping for a week and will resume to test if these things are linked)
- Monday I started working out after work instead of before work ( so Im getting in the gym at 5:30 and leaving around 730 or 800)
- I havent smoked weed since Sunday, which Ive been using to self medicate as a sleep and anxiety aide (reason being I want to save some money to buy Christmas presents).
- I do generally experience heightened anxiety levels around the holiday season.
