Hi
Thanks for writing to the forum!
“The cause of primary hyperhidrosis is unknown, although some surgeons claim that it is caused by sympathetic overactivity.
However, anxiety can exacerbate the situation for many sufferers. A common complaint of patients is that they get nervous because they sweat, then sweat more because they are nervous. Other factors can play a role; certain foods & drinks, nicotine, caffeine, and smells can trigger a response (see also diaphoresis).” Refer: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperhidrosis#Cause
Endocrine gland related conditions like hyperthyroidism, acromegaly and glucose control disorders all result in increased sweating. Pheochromocytoma, cancers, carcinoid syndromes, tuberculosis and other infections too can cause increased sweating.

It is difficult to comment beyond this without examining. Please discuss this with your doctor and get your husband investigated accordingly. Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted. Take care!
Your husbands mystery illness is sensityvity to genetically modified foods such as soy,corn and canola. Also he should avoid all vegetable and fruits sprayed with fungicide azoxystrobin.
