I'm a C4/C5. Over the past couple of years when i get up my face gets progressively redder as the day goes on. Any ideas?

Hi Brendan,

Do you get any nasal congestion with it?

A red face sounds a little like something associated with your autonomics.

Maybe it's old age? :angry:

By the way, do you ever hear from anyone from the spinal unit? I often wonder what happened to them.

Simon :)

Could be autonomics, when I pass urine my face goes flushed while its happening, then goes back to normal. Maybe the longer you sit, the fuller your bladder gets and its not emptying enough. Are you cathetrised or do you have a sheath?

Is your face red (pinky) anyway? With tiny broken veins or do you blush alot?
Get emmbaressed easy or just feel cautious about it?
How old are you if you don't mind me asking?
I could have a long conversation with you on this topic...thats if you want to?
If you reply, i'll get crackin'...if not, I'll take it it's not that much bother.

Cheers anyway.
