As explained below

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for posting your query. I would suggest you to check your thyroid and sugar levels for rapid weight gain.

Sneezing as soon as waking up can be due to allergic or vasomotor rhinitis. Using steroid nasal spray can help reduce the occurence. Fluticasone nasal spray, 2 puffs to each nostril every morning and slowly taper it and stop.

I hope this helps. Please feel free to discuss further if any.
Regards.
