Default Should I push for a sweat test?

I'm having some possible AHA moments this morning but want to make sure I am not over reacting.

I am not sure if some of my symptoms are autonomic so I am asking for your input if I should push for a sweat test and if so which one?

For many years before I had any burning or what I now know as SFN sensations I had boasted that I hardly sweat. I could come out of a spinning class surrounded by people who were soaked in their own perspiration and I would have a small damp spot on my back. It's not that I was incapable of sweating it's just that the circumstances would need to be extreme.

Lately my blood pressure has been getting higher. From 90/60 or 100/70 for years to recently 129/78. The lowest it seems to go is 117/70 or 80. To all my new doctors this is not a concern, but to me it needs to be compared to what it was.

I have not gotten a dx for SFN not even idiopathic, not for lack of trying. Do I pursue this or am I being a over reactive?
