In August of this year I started taking a drug called Abilify. Immediately I started getting a fever, and sweating uncontrollably. One day I walked outside, and after ten minutes I could feel my self losing consiousness, and sat down for about 30 mins or so. My shirt was soaked with sweat. I went to the hospital the next day. My blood pressure was 170 over 111. I am 32yo and I have never had high blood pressure. My doctor did not pick up on the NMS because I was currently seeing him for an Urinary Tract Infection. He assumed because of the fever and sweats that this was a sign the infection was getting worse and sent me to an Urologist. I was treated for the infection and all the symptoms went away, except for the fever and sweats. The Urologist did every test numerous times and found nothing. I mentioned the Abilify and that's when I was told about NMS, the symptoms, and what causes it. He said I should see my Phyc ASAP.
Is there a medical doctor that Is more knowledgable of it?
Is there a Medical Doctor to see for NEUROLEPTIC MALIGNANT SYNDROME?
If it is NMS how did you say all symptoms improvedwith treatment of UTI.
NMS is a medical emergency with very high fever etc
Your psychiatrist is the docotr to see along with a physician a specialist in medicine.
