Sorry for not updating you guys it was late by the time we got home. The nurse finally saw us around 2:30 and she messaged my psychiatrist and he replied back and asked her to do a bunch of tests like take my oxygen and ask me a variety of questions. When everything was done he concluded it was HIGHLY unlikely its the caplyta causing the shortness of breath because if it was id be having an allergic reaction most commonly or in the rarest of cases it can make asthma worse but thats apparently a 1 in a million side effect. He said that im definitely not allergic to it and said that its likely either my asthma acting up or anxiety or both. He told me if the sob gets any worse over the next few days to call the nurse and they will contact him or go down again and he will see me and figure out whats going on but for right now continue taking the caplyta as prescribed and he will refill my ativan for one FINAL time (so I have to get off of it within 60 days but thats something for me to worry about another time).
Anyway, thats how it went. I can breathe a tad easier this morning but its still very difficult to breathe on exertion. Its really weird.
