As long as i can remember.I have had Hot Flashes.Even as a kid.At times i think it's Epilepsy related.Because i get all hot and gross in the summer and then right after i have a seziure. I have had others with Epilepsy.Tell me they have had that problem to.I get hotter than people without Epilepsy.It's gross and embrassing to. Anyone know if this might be the reason?

Many folks with epilepsy have auras before a seizure....sounds like this is your aura.

I suffer from hot flashes since I had a hysterectomy many years ago.....they are no fun. It's like experiencing your own personal summers any time of year....from deep inside and it just rolls right up from my toes to my head....I hate them.

Sorry you are having to deal with them, but it sounds like they are a good way of telling you what might be coming and gives you a few seconds to prepare. I don't know what kind of seizures you have...but I would think that being able to prepare for them would be a good thing?

The other thing is that it's possible your hormones are affected. You could go for testing to see where they are at. If they are normal, then it could very well be epilepsy related.

Sending cooling thoughts to you
