Hyperhidrosis: What you're describing is hyperhidrosis. A condition where excess sweating occurs and can really be terrible. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperhidrosis I remember we had a patient who underwent surgery because of her condition. Hopefully your case isn't that bad. I would suggest going to see a dermatologist for help if your symptoms are really bad.
