Hi there,
I would suggest you get some blood investigations like complete blood picture, thyroid function test, fasting and post prandial blood sugars(FBS and PPBS), Fasting lipid profile, ECG done. This is to rule out blood disorders, thyroid disorders, diabetes , cardiac problems as a cause of sweating. Please visit your physician as you definitely need to be evaluated.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Dr. Divya Kuttikrishnan
