Hot sweats

I am 68 , female, and was diagnosed with AF 8 years ago. After 3 cardio versions which didn't work I am on digoxin, warfarin and Slozem ( diltiazem) I get very hot, similar to hot flushes mainly in the evening and when I lie down. Do others have this too?

Yes - I am normally cold - so always have a cardigan on in Summer and extra layers in Winter . Most evenings I suddenly feel very hot, cardigan comes off, and then back on again soon after. I'm on the same meds as you plus pravastatin, but have had no procedures.

These meds can do strange things!!
