It's where you feel your body just heat up real fast. A lot of people experience this right before vomiting and that's probably the best thing I can compare it to. You don't have to be preggers to have it happen. I've gone through hot flashes when I was extremely sick. Trust me...If it's happened...You'll know it. :)
