Dehydration maybe: Hi karenpells67 At 57 there are lots of possible connections between the symptoms you mention. You could be pre menopausal, you might be working and not drinking enough fluids, which can often cause headache, and the night sweating could actually be a more serious sign. I hope you will consult with a practitioner to pursue this. And stay hydrated in the meantime.

Not likely, but: Depends what you mean by fluid retention. If you are having swelling of your feet(edema) than it's very unlikely you are dehydrated. Don't try to diagnose yourself. You won't find the answers to your symptoms in this chat format. I suggest you see your physician who knows you best...or at least call him/her.
