When you have a situation that releases a large amount of adrenaline (i.e. stress or an attack) what happens to the blood flow?

Surface reduction: Stress is consistent with the hpa axis, which results in increased Adrenalin flow, increased blood pressure and heart rate, slowing of digestion, decreased blood at the periphery of the body, and more.
