sometimes i get like a hot flush when i feel the palpitations but not always. I hate that feeling :(

I think it may be helpful to know if you get a "fever" when you feel hot, or chills.  The fast reacting digital thermometers are available for a modest cost at Walmart and other pharmacies.  You may want to consider getting one if you do not already have a working thermometer.

Other data that may help people on this forum/community and your doctor is how long do the palpitations last and other "measures":  heart rate (beats per minute) and if irregular, describe how: e.g., some extra beats that are regular, or not regular as the case may be.

I'm not saying answering these questions will enable me to give more help, but it may help others identify with your symptoms and then be able to share more of their experience.

I just get really hot and then it goes away when the palpatations go away no i never took my temp during it and i dont take any heart meds

When you say palpitations cause you to gt really hot, does that include sweating?  Have you taken your temperature at these times?

Are you taking any heart medications?
