Sweat and body odor.

by wiccanpixie, Apr 26, 2007 12:00AM
During work I peel, cut and slice a large amount of onions. Days after doing so I smell nothing but onions, even after washing. Would one be able to sweat such an awful smell or is this somehow just held in the nose. No one seems to notice this smell but me. Another odd thing. I have been waking up in the middle of night soaked in sweat and the smell left on the bedding is that of like movie theater butter for popcorn. Very oily. Again it is only me who smells it. I don't want to be the chick who smells like buttered onions which is all I seem to smell lately. And I tend not to use perfumed items like soap and detergents. I do take Zoloft which I heard can make you sweat. And I don't eat onions and have not had popcorn or oily foods because I know that's bad. What can I do to eliminate my funk?

I was wondering if you ever figured out what caused the popcorn smell?  I have been having the same problem for about 4-6 months.  It's becoming nauseating.  It is usually after waking up in the middle of the night and sweaty.  I can normally smell it on my own neck; however, my mother has noticed it before as well.  I don't work around foods and don't eat popcorn on a regular (rarely) basis.
