Hi Dear ,

As per your query you have profuse sweating . Well there can be many reasons for symptome you mention in query like diabetic hypoglycemia , endocarditis , generalized anxiety disorder , heart attack , hyperthyroidism , medication side effects, such as blockers and antidepressants and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma . It seems to me that in your case the symptoms are due to cardiac problem as you are also retaining water in legs . I would suggest you to consult cardiologist for proper examination without any delay . Doctor may order complete blood profile , ECG , TMT , angiography and check vitals . Doctor may prescribe betablockers , aspirin , diurectics like frusamide and sedatives . Doctor may also refer you to endicrinologist if he/she find problem to be related with thyroid .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
