Oh! And the doctor today said the D dimer test was to check for clots because my pulse was racing- 133 beats per minute resting.

Hope stopping the cogentin and loxapine helps. I've never been on loxapine but I've been on fluphenazine (which has even less anticholinergic effects than loxapine) and cogentin. They both caused urinary retention for me. If I remember correctly, most 2nd gen APs have less anticholinergic effects than 1st gens.

I tried fluphenazine and had this same reaction.
