History of recent illness or injury that may have resulted in sepsis or SIRS; a recent respiratory illness; UTI; anaphylaxis from an iatrogenic or accidental exposure; or an adrenergic problems in the presenting patient?

Ummm history
After doing much thinking and some looking at my old notes from Medic school:

warm peripheries,

Warm, well-perfused skin, wide pulse pressure and reduced diastolic blood pressure. Why?

Decreased SVR which leads to pooling, and decreased preload.
