If he doesn't take ditropan, he should give it a try. It gets rid of the sweats for some people.

usually, the opposite is true: sitting up eases a.d.

Lazer, I had the same problem about 2 years ago. Had all kinds of tests done and nothing was wrong with me. I went to a rehab doctor in Chicago and he gave me a script for Ditropan and it actually worked. It took about 3 days and I could tell a huge difference and have not had any problems since. He started me at 5 mlg and I have taken them since. Tell him to try it. It works!

Ditropan decreases bladder spasms. One of its side effects is decrease in prespiration. He needs to drink plenty of water because it does dry you out.

i told him.....
he said his bladder dont spasm.... only spasms he get are occasional leg spasms
to me it sounds like a compression problem somewhere, cuz when he lays down hes normal, only when he sits up
weird huh?

Listen Lazer... I did not have any issues with my bladder at the time, no spasms, no infection, nothing. Had the same thing, sweating uncontrollably only when sitting in chair. When I laid down it all went away. Please tell him to try Ditropan for a week. It stopped my sweating completely! My family DR. has prescribed it to atleast three ab peeps that had sweating problems with the same results. It is not going to hurt.
good luck!
