Poor you, yes I know that feeling, I am quite pale skinned and have always blushed easily....since Tamoxifen this is much more so. I was already having hot flushes and am now post-menopausal. It's impossible to tell the difference between a physically induced hot flush and an emotional one due to stress or embaressment. It's all the same sensation. I notice it is worse in a hot office, working under stress and when having hot drinks. WHen I was in that sort of work I wore Tshirts even in winter, sat near an open window and drank a lot of cold water. What I hated was when it was commented on - so rather than deal with curiosity about my red face I would pre-empt it sometimes by joking "Here we go, another hot flush!" and fan myself vigourously by the open window while others shivered.
