Wow, ok. so he has a history of these events... could be something other than the Geodon, but yeah, he still needs attention. And the pdoc should still be alerted.

Oh gosh. I just looked this up...

https://www.geodon.com/

Scroll down to see effects. It mentions blood pressure as something to report immediately for a different reason than what I said, but still critical.

Quote:
If you experience a high fever, stiff muscles, shaking, confusion, sweating, or increased heart rate or blood pressure, tell your doctor right away. These can be signs of a rare but potentially fatal condition called neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS).
Good luck, I hope you can get in touch with the pdoc fast.

(((hugs)))
