In part 1 discussed were neuroendocrine tumors (NET), mast cell activation disorders (MCAD), and hyperbasophilia. In this section are covered the remaining flushing disorders which primarily or secondarily involves the gastrointestinal tract. This includes dumping syndrome, mesenteric traction syndrome, rosacea, hyperthyroidism and thyroid storm, anaphylaxis, panic disorders, paroxysmal extreme pain disorder, and food, alcohol and medications. With the exception of paroxysmal pain disorders, panic disorders and some medication these disorders presents with dry flushing.
