Brief Answer:
No need to worry, Its common in stuffy days.

Detailed Answer:
Hi, I had gone through your query and understood your concerns.

Sir, If these are the average sugar levels even when you are sweating, then nothing to worry regarding Diabetes. Sweat is common during stuffy days to any one. Need not worry much. Keep pleasant. Practice meditation and Yoga if possible. Salt restricted diet will help you. Drink more fluids.

If you suspect any disturbances in the chest and breathing difficulties, Get complete cardiac evaluation as a precautionary measure. But from the details you have mentioned, nothing to worry at all.

Hope this guides you. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries. Wishing you good health.
