What Causes Excessive Sweating And Vision Problem In An Arthritis Patient?

I have psoriatic arthritis and sarcoidosis and a cough that ice had for 3 years. Lots of pain and vision problems but have excessive sweating just with the slightest exertion. I m not talking about a little sweat but soaking sweats several times a day. I m on Remicade, methotrexate,lisinopril, silva staton, Wellbutrin, efferxorvand estradiol. I cannot get ready without soaking through my hair and clothes. This has been going on for a long time along with the vision problems

Hello,

These are nonspecific signs but may indicate some problems and in most cases is related to physical stress, sudden changes in positions from lying down to standing up, or as a result of consuming caffeine-containing beverages, tobacco, alcohol etc.

In this case, they do not have any medical underlying cause, and there is nothing to be worried about.

However, if this concerns you and is happening to you repetedly then some tests should be done which include:

- a complete biochemical panel
- blood glucose, liver function enzymes, kidney function tests, electrolytes
- a complete thyroid panel - TSH, fT3, fT4
- a complete blood count
- an EKG

Depending on the results of these tests, further tests and treatment may be needed.

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

Take care

Regards,
Dr Ivan R. Rommstein, General Surgeon
