That's terrible! Sorry for my ignorance, but what were you injected with? I hope you are feeling better after sleeping more.

Yes, tell the medical people that after you had your injection, you became dizzy and even fell unconscious, fainted @princesscookie19. You're absolutely right, it's not your fault. Actually, it sounds to me you're trying very very hard. Let the doctor know about these possible side effects you experienced, please.

The staff are right. They do have a duty of care to make sure you are safe to get home. What do you think set this off? How is your blood pressure normally? Is the lift normally working? Hope you can stay safe. Maybe next time have some-one accompany you there and back.

I find that AP's (such as Risperdol) can cause me to feel faint and short of breath, especially if I haven't had enough sleep. It's a very distressing feeling.

Risperdal cause breathing issue if you are allergic to it and if you are falling after taking it than you should see your doctor and tell him the side effects.
