Vasodilation: Your symptoms sound like hot flashes but I can not say that to you at this age, blood vessels becomes dilated at times, that is called vasomotor symptoms. Sometime people with underlying emotional disturbance do gets these symptoms, talk to your doctor.

Need more info: A broad range of things can cause these symptoms. Can you provide more information? For example, do you take any medications? Do these episodes happen at particular times? During sleep? While you're around other people? Does anything make it better? Are there other symptoms (pounding heartbeat, flushed face, light-headedness)? Can others looking at you tell you're having these episodes?
