I didnt undrestand anything. I this is the 2nd time this happenes to me..1st time it happened maybe 6 months ago for less than a minitue. I was sitting and there was no stress or anything at all...suddenly,i got a very dark chest and face(almost purple) for seconds then i couldnt take a deep breath because i felt tightness in my chest and numbness in my head and my ears became red and warm along with nasuea..this stayed for less than a minute. When i read on google it said carcinoid syndrom...even the 2nd time when it happened which is an hour ago i felt exactly the same with a pain in the upper abdnominal and whe this all ended i felt tired and my knee started to hurt(maybe joint pain) i feel better now but i need to know what this is. Im 36 female and no stress.

Well. Carcinoid syndrome came with same symptoms but there must be history of carcinoid mass which came in the GIT tract or in the lung and 5%of patient came with these symptoms only when the timers begin to secrete vasoactive substance which causes
Flushing 
Diarhea 
Bronchoconstriction 
Abdominal pain 
Nausea 
Vomiting 
So you must do lung ct scan with IV contrast and pan ct with iv contrast and oral.barium to exclude out mass lesion 1stly 
And for symptoms treated by
Telotristat ethyl 
Octeroide
Methysergide maleate
Peptide receptor radionuclide therapy
Cyproheptadine
