Hi Jen
Could maybe changing the kind of pillow that you use help with the
problem? Like maybe using a pillow that breathes/circulates well or
absorbs some of the sweat so you're not so uncomfortable. I've been
blesses with large thighs LOL and they tend to sweat when laying atop
each other; I often tuck my nightie or sheet or something in between and
it helps some, and powder my legs especially during summer. Don't know
if this helps any... :) Hopefully your doc will be able to give you
some ideas. And, by the way, what do you mean by 'NIH posting'?
Painfree wishes to everyone,
Amy
