I wasn't sure where to post this question, because I'm not entirely sure what the causes are. My closest assumption is that it is an endocrine dysfunction.

I have been suffering on and off for the past 12 or so years with abnormal sweat at my palms, feet and axillary areas. At it's worst, I'll just sit at my desk and watch the sweat drip down my arm. I leave little puddles on the base of my laptop. Strangely it will at times get better with exertion. I don't sweat while sleeping. The quality is mostly clear, not sticky. It has no odor, but after wearing a shirt too much, regardless of washing it regularly, it will get musty.

This first started when I turned 18. I've dealt by wearing things that don't show it, and by changing frequently. When I can't I'm definitely more susceptible to being chilled, my pores open and I get goosebumps everywhere. I remember that for a few years it wasn't such a problem, but I can't remember what the circumstances were- other than perhaps less stress in my immediate surroundings.

I've tried everything from certain dry to other anti-perspirants- which make it worse. I've been seeing an acupuncturist; that helps, but we haven't gotten to the bottom of the problem. Now it's like every other day, instead of all day everyday. I hate it, if I could associate an emotion with it, it would be shame.

What are the causes of something like this? Is this a parasympathetic/ sympathetic disorder? Do you have any suggestions with regards to stopping it?
Thanks, in advance with any help!
