A while back I took 500mg Niacin. I recall this because it was kind of chilly outside, and during the time I was waiting for the bus, the flush started to hit me which I thought was different because it was not too comfortable outside, but I could feel the heat inside.
Anyway, I got home and I was really red. Like, normally it's just sections of my arms, face, and hands. Yet this time, my entire arms and face were super red. SUPER RED. The people that live with me remarked on this. By then the sensation had gone away but I looked extremely red, all over.
I made dinner. Still red. I looked at my phone. Still red.
I went to bed and woke up the next day. STILL RED.
I haven't used niacin since.
Has this happened to anyone else?
I don't think I used it with anything else.
Oddly enough, I developed GERD shortly after this.
