Hey bud,

sorry to hear that you are going through this situation..

i dont really got much advice for this but if things are getting worse for you, the best thing for you to do is go consult with your family doctor and tell him that the last 4 days have been horrid for you and maybe he has the answer for you and maybe able to help you.

Call your doctor right away and tell them your symptoms. Some medications have nasty side effects for some people and it looks like you may have uncovered one. They can switch you to a different medication or combine what you are taking with an anti-anxiety medication. You had what sounds like a nasty panic attack and you shouldn't let those go unchecked.

I read your situation..and my answer might be scary...

but umm....it COULD be Sleep Paralysis or a form of Narcolepsy

 

It could be just a medical side effect though...

here is a web site..not to scare you or anything,..but i have heard of many cases like this..or read about it..

 

yours i think could be because of the medication...best of luck to you..

 

I am curious to know what you find out....keep me posted..

 

Contact your doctor before you jump to conclusions after reading the website.

I suggest calling you doctor and ask him if they can be side affects from medication it seems like it culd be just that. Just contact your doctor as soon as possible .
