Hot flashes can be due to hormonal imbalances in females after menopause. If also can be due to Vitamin defeciency. Please get her blood sugar done too .

It could just be hot flashes that happen to us old ladies.  It is caused by fluctuating hormones.  - I usually just drink some very cold ice water with a little potassium and it goes away.  I hope it's not arthritis.

I heard from a doctor on the TV that it's a symptom of Rheumatic Arthritis.

there's also something called "Rheumatic fever" an "overkill" response of the immune system that follows to an infection.

she should see a Rheumatologist
