Hi Sarah,
>....he actually prescribed me Ritalin LA 40mg (2 a day) and wanted me to take it along with my Adderall 30mg (4 a day)! I thought it was crazy.........
IT IS!
>My heart was beating out of my chest, so hard that my chest was vibrating.
Ritalin is sympathomimetic. I'm glad you didn't have a heart attack :-)
>I took two steps and collapsed. I really felt like it was about to be the end for me. Forsome reason my whole left arm went numb........
>.......completely numb and I couldn't feel it at all.........
>I woke up the next morning and could barely move my legs. I actually had trobule walking for the whole next day.
It almost sounds like a transient ischemic attack.
>.......I really like the Adderall but sometimes I take more than I am supposed to.......
Don't! 120mg/day is already a massive dose.
>Is it harmful to stay awake for that long?
Yes. Psychosis can develop due to profound sleep deprivation. You need to make sure that you're sleeping every night.
>No one ever answered me about my feet that have become suddenly swollen.
I think that's something that you need to discuss with your new doctor. I'm not sure what the cause is. PLEASE get a new doctor ASAP, your current pdoc is dangerous.
Kind regards,
Ed.
