The heater was not blowing very hot...so... i flushed the cooling system, with the heater on while flushing.....

Every since doing this, i get a strong smell of anti-freeze, and, the windshield fogs up so bad that i have to pull over and wipe it with a cloth. I cannot find any wet areas inside the vehicle, nor can i find a leak. when i turn heater on, regardless if i have it blowing on floor, or defrost, it fogs up the windshield..... why would it do this after flushing, nad, whats the fix? it never overheats...coolant level is ok....
