A member asked:
Could uctd with elements of lupus and sjogrens cause sporadic sweating resulting in hair plastered to my head (not hot flashes)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Doubtful unless...: Undifferentiated Connective Tissue Disorders (UCTD) should not affect the propensity to sweat. If, however, you are using steroid therapy (such as prednisone) then you could very well experience sporadic sweating as a side effect of steroid Rx and not the UCTD itself.
