Hi,
The fibromyalgia itself does not cause sweating... the pain associated with fibromyalgia results in psychological stress... & this is the cause for sweating. Relief from pain & psychological counseling/medicines would help.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
