Have You Been Prescribed A Stimulant? (Vyvanse, Adderall)
Has anyone been prescribed a stimulant such as Vyvanse or Adderall for concentration/fatigue issues while on a specific medication? If so, did you consult your rheumatologist or family doctor?
I'm on cellcept and yes vivance for the same reason...yes we can have it...it works kind of ...it does give you energy....i have aps syndrome severe....so I doesn't take care of all my problems......good luck to you
I have. Adderall. It helps a lot but it does make me dehydrated which causes me to hurt more sometimes and it gives me wicked mood swings.. I’ll be fine until someone annoys me and then I will lash out more than I’d normally react without being on it. I currently don’t have anymore and I am struggling to stay awake- I get a lot done while I’m taking it.
I have not no but I'm on lorazepam and hydroxine
I have been prescribed 2 and had problems with both. Ritalin has a sick kinda feeling. I heard nurses and other people call it a "dirty" feeling? I kinda understand what they mean if it means felt like I had some contaminated chemical. I had better concentration. I was more awake, and got tons done usually. It made me hurt everywhere, noticeably. I got the ride of my life when I took it one day with an opiate increase. I can't take that with any drug combination opiate or narcotic wise. I have the severe chronic lymph flare, I still have it around here just in case. But I skip it most the time. And my ADD is back to what it was before.
I also took adderal for one month as an alternative. It did a lot of the same. Definitely smoother.
It competed with some of the same receptors my other meds did and I had to again, stop that one. And these are DIFFERENT receptors than the Ritalin! I guess this class of medicine will always give me this problem. I have temporary stopped trying to find a good medicine. Maybe I can learn something here.
I'm on cell Cept as well and I suffer from fatigue, I wonder if these stimulants interfere with your sleeping at all?
