I've noticed since starting on Citalopram my temperature has increased, especially at night. I used to have several covers and blankets over my duvet at night but now I sleep in shorts and vest tops and lie on top of the covers. During the day I find myself wearing sleevless tops as I'm so warm, which is so unusual for me - my friends used to joke that I was a cold blooded animal not a human being as I was always cold.

As for the sweating, I find I can walk up the stairs and feel clammy - I dread warm days as it just adds fuel to the fire! It can be quite embarrassing, and like your partner mine has noticed how warm I am in bed and he often says I feel clammy (polite word instead of sweaty I think!).

Anxiety can cause all sorts of random and unpleasant issues.

My wife gers very very hot at night and has to go out of the covers and tosses and turns keeping me awake.Sorry about your situtation Shackel ,wish there was something I could say to help and I get the hypocondriac thing from the wife too. Says I have something new everyday like your wife says to you.Its a little dishearting...
