A member asked:
Why would an individual be overheated and sweating frequently.

A Few Things: Well, you're a man so we'll rule out hot flashes. Severe obesity is probably the most common cause of this in america, but most of the "true" medical problems causing this are hormonal. These are situations which can be very common (thyroid problems) or extraordinarily rare (pheochromacytomas). A visit with your doctor is the best way to sort this out.
