I'm just wondering if anyone else gets this? I'm thinking it might be the freezing cold weather we have at the minute, and I've been out jogging in it. Apparently that's a trigger along with spicy foods and alcohol etc. I haven't drank a lot at all this week, I had one wine before my dinner last night and I was all rosy! But I had been exercising at the gym then ran home in the cold weather.
I'm worried about my blood pressure currently so freaked out that might be a symptom, but I can't actually find anything supporting that at all. Not that I'm looking for it, was just checking it wasn't! Any advice?
Thanks
