My situation isn't nearly as horrible as some I've read about.
Its pretty much unnoticeable to anyone else. But some of the muscles in my face feel pretty sore sometimes.I believe your nurse should have treated this more urgently. She should have at least gone ahead and mentioned this to your doctor, and then gotten back to you on what he/she said.
Sometimes the best thing to do is go with your gut. If you can mentally handle being without Risperdal right now, I wouldn't take another dose. Or if you really need it, cut the pill in half, or even smaller. I'm pretty sure Risperdal can be cut in half without affecting its absorption, as long as its not an extended release pill. But you could check with a pharmacist to make sure it can be cut in half without its absorption being affected, if you'd like.
