Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
After going through the medical query, I understand your concern and I would like to tell you that causes of profuse sweating with dizziness can be low blood sugar levels. Kindly get a blood work up for blood sugars and an ECG done and consult a physician with reports for further management.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
Kind Regards,
Dr. Bhanu Partap
