Are Cold Sweats In A Thyroid Disorder Person Symptom Of Diabetes?
my oral thermometer body temperature is a little below 95 and I think I m experiencing what they call a cold sweat. I take thyroid med, Synthroid and have for years. Have wondered recently if I could have a blood glucose problem even though my tests are always alright. Have not been feeling myself for a few months. More nervous and anxious than usual.

dear friend
Please get your thyroid function tests repeated with antibodies to thyroid hormone estimation to see if you need dose adjustment of the Synthroid you are taking. you have not mentioned your dose though.
if all is well on this front then you will need to be evaluated for other conditions. autonomic dysfunction though it is more often associated with loss of sweating
you may also like to see your psychiatrist to rule out anxiety as well
