Hi everyone,

Yesterday I experienced this sort of rush all through my body. It was really quick and seemed like some sort of hot flash or wave that started from my legs through my chest. It happed very rapidly and scared me. I cant even say for sure if it was a hot flash just some sort of wave through my body. It only lasted a few seconds but scared me real bad.

I know I over reacted but I went to the Hospital and told them what happened. My bloodwork, ekg, and blood pressure were all fine and she referred me to a family doctor.

Has anyone ever felt this sort of a feeling. I'm still scared over this symptom? The thing that makes me upset is that I wasnt all the anxious over anything.:wacko:

I've had this, well or something very similar sounding anyway. It is weird, nothing to worry about though.

i have these instance too, like a hot wave flash type thing that comes from nowhere to hitting you like and electric shock all over your body and it makes me want to run and beg for reassurance as it is so so so frightening. I think i have put mine down to either hormones because i tend to get it more just before my period as i do with my panic attacks, i cant literally have a panic attack and then start my period within a few hours... either that or just possibly the start of a panic attack but i cant work out if it is panic or pmt because when it happens i do panic as it makes me fearful of it happening again... who knows but i do know it scares me!!
