Gina,
I do believe that the symptom you are experiencing is quite common. I do not believe that it is your blood pressure, but it may very well be the autonomic nervous reaction. Those whose face, neck chest get red when stressed or embarassed or nervous is quite normal. We all had different ways of reacting to stressful situations and this may just be your way.
Take Care,
Melanie
