Unexplained sweating during the day can have various causes, ranging in severity from 'minor' to 'life-threatening'. Finding the true cause means ruling out or confirming each possibility – in other words, diagnosis.
Diagnosis is usually a complex process due to the sheer number of possible causes and related symptoms. In order to diagnose unexplained sweating during the day, we could:
Cause | Probability | Status |
---|---|---|
Chronic Fatigue-Fibromyalgia | 94% | Confirm |
Guillain-Barre Syndrome | 24% | Unlikely |
High Histamine | 24% | Unlikely |
Kidney Disease | 1% | Ruled out |
Hyperthyroidism | 1% | Ruled out |
High Female Testosterone | 1% | Ruled out |
Stress | 1% | Ruled out |
Lymphatic Congestion | 0% | Ruled out |
