a message in my web journal about the Asian Blush, which quickly resulted in over 100 very-informative comments. This forum is intended to be an information source for those of us looking for information about why we turn red when we drink alcohol.

I'm full Chinese. I'll have half a bottle of bud light and turn beet red, my nose gets stuffy, I have a difficult time breathing, and my heart races. It's not just my face that turns red, it's my whole body. The funny thing is is that I don't get drunk, just buzzed no matter how red I turn. Within an hour or two I'll turn wicked pale and get the chills. I can't wait to try the Pepcid, I'll be sure to post the results. Thanks for all the informative posts.
