Detailed answer...
Hello,
Thanks for the query.
I have read your query and understand your concern.
Although there can be various reasons for such sudden excessive sweating but the most important one is the heart attack. Other common reasons could be hypoglycemia or over active thyroid gland etc.
I would advise you not to take this symptom lightly and hence must go to ER immediately to rule out heart attack atleast.
I hope it helps,however you are most welcome to revert to me for any further query.
Best of luck
Thanks
