Just looked up web definitions of 'flash' and 'flush'.
Flush:
blush; turn red
Flash:
a sudden intense burst of radiant energy
Hot flush:
A sudden, but brief, sensation of heat over the entire body; a common
symptom of the menopause
A sudden rush of heat to the face, neck, sometimes chest and back. It can be
associated with hormonal therapy for prostate cancer.
hot flash:
Sudden brief sensation of heat (associated with menopause and some mental
disorders)
Hot flashes (also known as hot flushes, or night sweats if they happen at
night) are a symptom of the changing hormone levels that are considered to
be characteristic of menopause.
Don't think any of us get a sudden intense burst of radiant energy - quite
the opposite in fact.
For me, at least, they're not brief.
Don't think any of us ladies are likely to suffer from prostate cancer.
Possible that we could be suffering from some mental disorder though.:-D I
know many think we're mad spending hours making lace when, to them, the same
thing can be bought ready-made very cheaply and without the effort.
