Severe Dystonic Reaction

Just to let you know I'm currently not allowed on computers, watch movies or do anything involving concentration.

I have had a severe Dystonic reaction to Maxalon & then they gave me an antidote which I am now suffering side effects from being memory loss, confusion, inability to construct full sentences etc. We ordered me a Medic Alert bracelet yesterday as Maxalon is a very commonly used drug for nausea & I'm now not allowed to have Stemetil or Phernergan either. In terms of the reaction I'm not allowed to have Cogentin either.

I'm on constant watch - had my phone taken off me, medication taken off me & can't drive or go to work.

I've snuck into the lounge to let you know why I'm not responding to PC's, posts etc. I can't even read small print as my vision goes blurry & I get swelling in my mouth.

To tell you the truth - I pretty much sh*t myself (can't use smiles on iPad) as I thought I was having a mini stroke. It's been 3 days now (had to ask what day it is) and GP thinks it should be out of my system by Sunday. It's driving me crazy.

Hope all my spelling & grammar is ok as I can't proof read what I wrote as it's a blur!!!
 
I think I repeated some of what I wrote in the "off To Hospital" thread but my memory is shot....eek,
 
I hope you are NOT going to read any of these well wishes until allowed but I am praying blessings your way!
 
Thanks everyone.

Amethist, Anthony has a tight hold on everything I can do....he said I could post an update. I'm only allowed limited time & only on iPad. Thanks for caring (((hugs)))

I can't do more than that anyway as my eyes get blury.

Nicolette,

Thank you for the updates, but please take care of yourself. There is nothing on here that can't wait until you are better. Although I totally understand "checking" on things. :D

Hope you are feeling better.
Debbie
