There is a test to see if your sweat glands are working!.
This can be a sign of a disease like Erythromalagia(sp!?), another sign is burning hands and feet!.
They dust you with a powder that turns color when it gets wet!. Put you in a box laying down and crank up the heat and leave you to cook for a while!. If you are having trouble with your autonomic nervous system then your whole body will not get sweaty like it is supposed to!. They then calculate what percentage is working!.
Although not being able to sweat sounds great it can actually be serious because your body uses that system to rid your body of toxins and heat!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
