Hello Katyf!
In the early stages of anxiety, I too suffered with hot flushes - particulary before my period was due. When you are stressed/anxious, everything goes into overdrive - blood is pumped to your muscles to help you run faster etc, all this sudden surge is bound to increase your temperature slightly. Just let the feelings wash over you and they will pass. Just remember, its just a normal bodily reaction in the circumstances. At least we'll be prepared for the menopause when it comes!
All the best!

Hi Katyf
I too suffer with hot flushes from time to time and these can lead afterwards to shaking with the cold. It isn't a nice feeling, but not the worst of my symptons. Positive thinking really helps, and now I just log on and feel reassured that I'm not the only one, which helps to bring the symptons under control.
I hope this helps you!
Take care
Shaz

Yes I also get hot flushes when I'm anxious, it tends to happen around my chest/neck area and my face feels hot. When I look in the mirror I see lots of red blotches but I know it's just the blood circulating round. After about 5-10 mins it usually subsides.

Sorry to ask but does anyone else get this type of hot flush just after an orgasm [:I]?
