I have never had a hot flush, until today (I think?).
My low mood and anxiety had been building and building all afternoon. Then just at its worst my torso seemed to momentarily feel like it was under pressure and white hot, and my chin and throat felt like they were red.
Then it suddenly stopped, and it felt like a weight had lifted and I felt better.
I didn't sweat though, so could it still be a hot flush. It seemed as much psychological as physical?
