Thank-you user for your query.
I understand your concern.
Heart palpitations are very common in diabetics and also in thyroid disorders and weakness is also more or less common in such disorders too. In your case all I want to suggest is that kindly get your thyroid profile along with fasting and post prandial blood level done. That will clear the picture that whether your symptoms are related to diabetes or thyroid disorders.
Well, your palpitations demands an urgent advice from cardiologist as he might start any medications related to palpitations. In my opinion you can start 0.25 mg of aplrazolam to reduce your anxiety as this will in turn reduce your palpitations and sweating too. So far as your sticky sweats are concerned, it is quite common in diabetics. You can use any good quality perspirants for it.
