My Body temperature control switch seems to be broken

Just over 12 months on from my 2 heart attacks and 7 stents.

I stuck with my original meds, side effects and all, I thought it was getting better and my body was getting use to the meds. Astrovastine, bisoprolol, Ramipril, clopidogrel, aspirin. most side effects have now subsided, or I just don't notice them as much.

Until the last couple of weeks, the slightest bit of excursion or hard work My weekly cardio keep fit class, and my weekly gym session and I break out in a real bad sweat, I mean I'm dripping from head to toe, and soaked like I just walked out of a shower.

Even when just sitting typing this, for no good reason I'm leaking like a sieve.

I'm guessing my internal thermostat or something has gone out of calibration or is reacting with my meds to cause this. Has any one else had this happen, Its worse than my wife`s hot flushes from her menopause.

Time for a visit to my GP I think.
