Can Diabetes Coupled With Coronary Artery Disease Cause Excessive Sweating During Physical Activity?

My husband is a Vietnam Veteran, exposed to agent orange and diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and coronary artery disease. He had a quadruple by pass surgery on June 15, 2016... In the past few weeks, he has been sweating everytime he does anything physical...He says it will pass...But it has continued. Should I continue to encourage him to visit his doctor?
