I'm in the same situation as you: I get night sweats, have lost weight (which I'm NOT complaining about!) and for the past week I've been getting bad stomach pain. I was on 25mg but increased to 50mg as my depression was coming back. I've also tried many other ADs but sertraline has been the only one that has helped. It seems a small price to pay when you look at the overall picture, but it might help if you perhaps reduced to 75 or 50mg.
