How Can cold Sweats Along With Nausea Be Treated?
In the last 3 months I have woken up with an extreme case of cold sweats that start with my face and travel down my body to the top of my thighs. I also experience muscle weakness and nausea to the point that I am unable to stand and I have to lay down. My last episode was yesterday and my extreme sweating lasted 1/2 hour but the body the body aches and nausea lasted most of the day. What do you think the cause of these symptoms could be?

So use tablet Paracetamol. Get it done blood and urine examination.
Please consult your physician he will examine and treat you accordingly.
