What Causes Severe Headache And Shortness Of Breath Despite Having Bipolar Disorder?

Lately I ve been getting a strong smell of ammonia and then a severe headache. I ve also been having paranoia with audio and visual hallucinations and then get a severe headache. I get out of breath very easily when doing something and pour down sweat. I am Bipolar and have DM2 and am on meds for both.
