It's summer here, and I get really hot at night, but unfortunatly i havent been able to sleep with a fan on for years now.
If i do, i get sick instantly the next day. Like a cold and stuff. Lol, i know this sounds ridiculous but really. Why does this happen...? |

could be all the dust circulating around... are you allergic to dust? Make sure the fan is clean, as in no dust... and dust the rest of your room too.

I get that as well. I've found that if the fan isn't blowing on my head I won't get postnasal drip. Fortunately I don't have any problems with the ceiling fan.
In my case I think the cold stimulates mucous production, which gets backed up because I have narrow drainage tubes, so it takes all day for everything to drain out. |

I would agree that it may be dust/allergins in the fan. Is it a FAN or an air conditioner. One suggestion would be to fill a hot water bottle up with cold water and use that. I get really nervous at night so no matter how hot it is I have to have blankets on me to feel safe, but I cant leave anything on and waste electricity. Using a cold water bottle helps.
