I had red cheeks....they even tested me for Lupus and Parvo (slapped cheek disease). Tests did show that I had been exposed to Parvo at some point, but not a recent infection. Every time my Lyme symptoms flared badly, my cheeks would get red again and my eyes looked watery.
Didn't have the high blood pressure though. I have seen many on this post say they had low blood pressure though

Every afternoon, no fail, for the past year my husband's cheeks turn beet red. Even he acknowledges the fact, but absolutely refuses to believe he has Lyme.
Although I have nothing to go on other than a hunch, I suspect the red cheeks are a symptom of Lyme and/or Bartonella.
He also has high blood pressure, heart disease and had a heart attack (two stints were put in) two years ago.

I could always tell when my daughter's lyme was active by her flushed cheeks. I had this as well, with erratic blood pressure. Kris
