Have you ever noticed that, regardless of how cold you are going to bed, you can wake up sweating? :sweat_smile:

I have a 15 tog in reserve that I bought when we had ā€˜The Beast From the Eastā€™ a few years back! However I will be glad if I never have to use it again!

Hi, yes I do notice the cold more post stroke and also taking Bisoprolol which combined with Clopidogrel really turns the body temperature down. As you comment I also go to bed feeling the cold but wake up in the early hours wringing with sweat. Roll on the spring. Jerry.

Hi Simon, I have no problems with Bisoprolol and my Consultant said it would be detrimental to stop the Clopidogrel as the proā€™s far outweigh the cons. I will have to make sure I donā€™t fall off any ladders in the new year. Anyway have a great festive season and donā€™t forget next year will be better. Christmas wishes Jerry.
