Best Answer

Tuberculosis patients sweat at night for a few reasons; first, they have a serious disease which affects their breathing. If they are not breathing normally, their lungs must work extra hard to both inhale, and exhale. Since the lungs are working so much harder than they should be, the work causes the patient to sweat. What some people don't know, is that tuberculosis isn't merely a lung condition which causes excessive coughing. The respiratory system can have an impact on virtually any given part of the body, including stable internal conditions (temperature of the interior body.) Someone with tuberculosis may experience the following, as a result of the respiratory system being a vital part of health.

Nausea

Sudden rise in temperature

Feverish symptoms

Dizziness

Loud, deep, and painful cough

Chest pain

Feeling of bloating in head area.
