Default Post-Concussive Hot Flashes??

I am new here, and come after an interesting 3 months.

In January I was rear-ended by a semi-truck. In addition to having whiplash, after about 3 weeks I was finally diagnosed as having suffered a concussion. I'm not quite sure how they did not notice this for the first 3 weeks as I seemed to have every symptom, but I digress.

Things are slowly starting to improve - my body is moving better for sure. I still notice that it takes me quite a while to recall information to have an intelligent conversation and that I am forgetting things often. However, I've been having a very strange thing happen that I am now starting to wonder if it is linked to the PCS. I am 30 years old and have always been cold, but now I find myself having what I can only term hot flashes. Has anyone else experienced temperature sensitivity such as this following a concussion? I'm going for a CT scan in a week, related to the concussion but not related to these hot flashes as I didn't mention them to my doctor.
