8. Night sweats

Some types of cancer cause night sweats, medically known as sleep hyperhidrosis. Overheating during sleep does not cause night sweats. Researchers believe the symptom has a connection with the hormonal changes that occur when diseases such as bone cancer affect the body. Night sweats could be the body's attempt to fight off cancer or a reaction to stress or anxiety. Fevers can also lead to sweating.
