fever sweats

A condition characterized by an inability to function in the clinic due to debilitating fever and profuse sweating.

Frequently seen in ophthalmology residents who see patient's on-call after 12:00 a.m.

A common side effect of fever sweats is temporary hearing loss and the inability to hear your morning alarm.

Often, fever sweats will resolve spontaneously without any treatment. Once resolved, the person will feel back to baseline as if nothing happened.

The long-term sequelae of fever sweats is a weirdly sensation that lasts up to 3 years from the onset of fever sweats.

Signs and symptoms of fever sweats usually manifest during the resident's post-call day

The etiology of fever sweats is unknown, but is more common in highly intelligent ophthalmology residents with advanced degrees e.g. MD, PhD
"I have fever sweats and didn't wake up to my alarm, anyway, I am now feeling weirdly as if nothing happened, not sure what was that shit"

"Sorry guys, I got dem fever sweats again so I won't be able to come to clinic"

"If you don't see me in clinic tomorrow then know that I probably have fever sweats and need my post-call day"

"Post call today, I got fever sweats."

"Won't be at teaching, I got fever sweats."

"Sorry we have to reschedule your appointment because the doctor has fever sweats today from being on-call"
