Heat flashes that radiate from my back?

Question

For months now, I have had these weird heat flashes (no not menopausal) that radiate from my back (kidneys?).

They are very strange and concern me. They seem to worsen any time I've had coffee or even a small glass of wine.

Is this a sign my kidneys are acting up? I don't remember ever having this before.

My lower back is pretty sound, no pain there.
This seems to be from my flanks, mid-way up my back (kidney area). I have had kidney issues in the past.

Well, I would not swear to It, but that sounds like a Pinched Nerve To Me, Dear. You are describing a Sensation that a Pinched nerve Produces. But, You really better get your Little self to a Doctor, and Let Him Examine You. O.k? Please. (smiles)
