any one experiencing bouts of excessive sweating using AREDS?

Such an interesting discussion group. Decided to join after reading some of your issues.

I started taking the AREDS2 late 2023 after getting cataract surgery and discovering I have the beginning dry AMD. Being 65, with arthritis, I figured all my aches and pains were related to my arthritis. Since labor day week I have had 2 harsh headaches. The second one caused me to throw up. I don't get headaches or throw up. I have thrown up twice since then. This morning I finally looked up possible AREDS2 side affects which led me to this group. Reading your comments is enough for me to stop taking AREDS2 and see what happens.
The only issue I can't find a cause for is excessive sweating, which started in the spring and doesn't "seem" to be a side effect of AREDS2. Has anyone else been sweating without an easy explanation (exercise, physical labor)?
