Hi,
If perspiration is the only concern then it is normal one if no other symptoms are there at the time of perspiration, like fatigue, dyspnea, else it is nothing to worry. Just for safer side, an EKG can be done. Sometimes very mild changes could be responsible for this.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
