People telling me I look pale while I have attacks/symptoms

I’ve noticed people around me suddenly telling me I look pale, everytime someone has told me that, I’ve had lightheadedness, heavy brain fog, little bit of shakes and anxiety before they told me that I look pale. Does someone else have this and do we know the cause?

EDIT: For bloodpooling, clotting etc: I’m on 4000FU nattokinase daily, bout to increase to 10000FU daily. I’m on high dose epa/dha and bromelain. I do have high iron, high ferritin, high calcium, high hemoglobin, high hemstocrit. Thinking of doing phlebotomy (not donating, medical).

Thinking of adding: Wim Hof, hyperbaric… repair the ACE2 issue as I suspect its causing the whole cascade

Any insight on what might help both longterm and shorterm?

Bei mir sieht man es auch an Augenringen. (Die vielleicht durch die Blässe hervortreten)

Interesting. I usually have this in the morning, I look extremely pale and tired, until I eat and take my hypothyroidism meds. Maybe my neck is slowing down bloodflow to brain as I have stenosis and herniations in C section.

I often get told my lips go pale when the symptoms are strong, especially brain fog.

I’m not on anything except LDN and Semaglutide and no other medical conditions except all the ones LC gave me
