Suggest Treatment For Excessive Sweating And Hypertension

Sweating
Detailed Answer:
There can be many potential causes.
1 Menopause
If she still gets regular menstrual cycles then this is unlikely to be the reason for her sweating
2 Pheochromocytoma
This is a fairly rare condition that causes spells of headache, sweating and heart racing along with other symptoms. A simple blood test called plasma free metanephrines is a good way to screen for this. It does not require fasting
3 Acromegaly
This is another rare condition associated with excessive sweating. A non fasting blood test called IGF1 helps rule this out for the most part
4 An overactive thyroid
I see you have mentioned her TSH is marginally high but if the the thyroid hormones are also high then this is a 'hyperthyroid' condition.

can sometimes cause sweating too
