General & Family Physician 's  Response
Yes, dizziness and facial flushing i.e redness is a feature of sleep deprivation.
I would recommend discussing your sleep deprivation also with your doctor when you visit him. Try to get some sleep, a calm mind helps sleeping faster.
Hope you feel better soon, thank you
