Just wanted to say hope you are by now feeling a little better. IT does sound very much like you have had some severe side effects. Blood pressure rising high like that isn't what you are used to, you work on a low setting. It does sound like a possible TIA, but I wonder if there was a bad reaction with your regular meds too. Take care of yourself and go easy too. I had a similar episode way before I was diagnosed with PD. Never did get to the bottom of it, but remember being absolutely incensed when I was told I probably had a panic attack. It was like putting the horse behind the cart....... never helps when people do that to you...... put down your experience. You describe the funny tasting sensation...... that sounds drug related. Hope you appetite and your normal self come back quick. Keep us posted on your progress.
