HI.

I am glad we connected.

Sweating can often be seen with chemo drugs and with blood pressure medication. This is a possible side effect of medication due to the increased cell death with the medication.

Blood pressure medication may cause changes in blood flow and this can cause one to have changes in the amount of blood flowing into some muscles or some parts of the skin.

I hope this helps answer the question! All the best.
