I am 38 yrs old. I had a hysterectomy when I was 27. I have gained 65 lbs in 3 years and sweat excessively. I recently found out I have high blood pressure also. I sweat so bad it's embarrassing and I don't like going anywhere. Could there be a serious condition causing this? I've been to my doctor about this and she did thyroid tests and hormone tests and all came back normal. She tells me it could be early menopause. Is there something we're overlooking? I am taking blood pressure medicine and have been taking Zoloft for about 10 years. The sweating started about 2 years ago.
