What Causes Constant Sweating Post An Adrenalectomy?

Since my adrenalectomy 6 weeks ago to remove a 3-1/2 benign tumor I am now experiencing sweating periods throughout the day/night. I am 59 yrs old and have already been through menopause following a hysterectomy 23 yrs ago. Is this sweating caused by the adrenalectomy?

Hi,

This sweating could be related to fluctuating sugar levels, which is common after adrenalectomy. Please get your sugars checked and inform your surgeon about the same.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Thank you.
