Thanks for asking me this question.

Check your blood pressure first .Low blood pressure can cause hypotension so sweating can happen.

In dehydration case, because of law water level can cause more sweating.

Some drugs like antidepresant etc can cause more sweating.

In obstructive sleep apnea case might sweating with dizziness is common.Anxiety is also ruled out.

You mention some coughing problem so do your sputum examination also.Any infection in respiratory system can diagnos by sputum test.

In menopause excessive sweating is more common.

with you a healthy life.
Thanks.
