I Have Been On Wellbutrin XL For 11 Days. First

I have been on Wellbutrin XL for 11 days. First 5 days at 150mg, then up to 300mg as prescribed by my physician.
2 days ago I started having the feeling that I can't breath and I take deep breaths because I feel like I can't get enough air in my lungs. I am also feeling lightheaded, most likely from the breathing issue. Is this a common side effect of the drug? I haven't seen it mentioned on the documents given with my prescription, or in lists online. If it is a common side effect will the symptom subside?
Thank you.
