face flushing?

I've never had this happen before, so just wondering if it's normal! I'm 36+4 and last night while laying in bed my face got really flushed and felt swollen? It kinda freaked me out cos i wasn't doing anything out of the ordinary. My hands recently started to swell also. I have an appointment today, should i bring this up?
