At the end of the appt, he said that I don't have to be on an antipsychotic at this time while my blood plasma (?) returns to normal. He said come see him in 4 weeks and then think about a different antipsychotic like saphris, but he didn't give me the chance to discuss diagnoses with him.
HI Blue!

I am glad he gave you something for your discomfort.. Finally!

Here's hoping you will be okay for 4 weeks.
I continue concerned, just because you are already showing signs of going into an episode.

Should you need help before you are scheduled to meet with him again, what's the plan? Is his assistant going to help you out?

I do hope this all works out for you. I think you know I do.
Please be careful and please have a plan in place.
