Brief Answer:
You might want to take propranolol tablets for the over sweating issues.

Detailed Answer:
Hi!

I am Dr. Neel Kudchadkar and I will help you with your sweat problem.
I strongly feel that since you have mentioned about cold feet, your issue is chronic activation of the sympathetic nervous system of your body.

I suggest that you try this drug: Propranolol. Take it thrice a day.

Remember to check your blood pressure while you are on this medication.

There will be dramatic and quick improvements.

This is the most common reason you might be facing this issue. The other reasons (differential diagnoses) for sweating are somewhat rare and distant.

Kindly follow these above instructions.

Regards!
