What up. I take tons of adderall XR. Nowadays I need around 60Mills to get me going and i take 30Mills every 5 hours after that. I stay up for days.
I've had every side effect from populations to swelling of hands and feet. All except Seziure and Sudden Death. (Thank God...)
Its my essence.. I have been diagnosed as being a Sociopath. I honestly think it keeps me from killing people.

Back in July I was experiencing rapid heart beats and shortness of breath. I'm a 43 white female with a high stress job. I went to the doctor expecting him to prescribe a sedative. He hooked me up to an EKG which showed I had a left bundle branch block. He then ordered blood work, chest x-rays, an ultra sound, and a nuclear stress test. All test came back fine, but my stress test showed a heart attack, which apparently is common with the left bundle block. I then wore a 24 hour Holter moniter which indicated tachycardia. That's when the doctor prescribed 50 mg Metoprolol. My BP and heart rate are now almost normal and the shortness of breath has gone away. I still experience a mild heaviness in my chest, but that is only when I allow my self to be stressed. I have gained over 5 pounds in less than 2 months and my dreams are more vivid than usual. One side effect that was listed on my drug info sheet that I haven't read about on this site described a cough, which I have had for over a month. I mentioned the cough to my doctor and he said it was prob post nasal drip so he prescribed 180 mg Fexofenadine and told me to cut the Metoprolol in half so I would be taking 25 mg. The Fexofenadine has helped with sneezing that I have always experienced, but the cough is still there. The cough is not always severe, but it has interrupted my sleep twice and my job once. The last bad coughing episode lasted 90 mins during the night. Has anyone else experienced the coughing side effect of Metoprolol?

I have been taking NR for 6 months now. It was great at first. I didn't realize some of the symptoms I was having were even related to the ring:
severe headaches
nausea
swelling of hands and face to the point of severe pain
breakthrough bleeding
severe mood swings
I took the ring out last night and don't expect to feel better for awhile. I seriously thought I had something wrong with me I didn't put it all together until I didn't have a period this time and then last month I had a really bad one a week before I was supposed to. My family thinks i am insane. I have really depressing thoughts. Before I took it out yesterday I was crying one minute then in a rage the next. My husband said to take it out right now because he couldn't take dealing with me anymore. I woke up this morning bloated and tired but a little better.
I am so glad that I looked up this site. I am not crazy or dying of some uncurable disease. It was just my hormones and whatever else is in that stupid ring.
They told me I had to refrigerate the ring because it releases the hormones by the heat in your body, well what if it doesn't work right. How do they know that it releases the same amount daily like it is supposed to?. I truly feel poisoned and imbalanced.

I am a Rheumatologist at private practice in PR. I was consulted on a patient who is recently diagnosed as pneumonitis, biopsy report is compatible with pneumonitis and refers it could be hypersensitivity pneumonitis or collagen disease. The patient refers that after she started singulair she noticed swelling of hands and general malaise that dissapeared when she D/C it. This happened by the same time as the pneumonitis. Has pneumonitis been reported with Singulair?

I had been taking lisinopril for about a month when I began having nose bleeds and bleeding piles. My doctor insisted that it was not the lisinopril and pointed out the Plavix I was taking is a blood thinner. He didn't say it directly, but I inferred that he suggested I reduce the Plavix, which I did. But the bleeding has stilling continued irregually.
Then about a month ago, I woke up with tinkling in my hands and feet, although I sleep only on my back in my recliner. After several days of this, I check the info sheet that comes with the medication. It states that lisinopril may cause swelling of hands and feet. Since once before, when a pharmacist told me another medication could cause swelling of the extremities and when I got the numbness and tinkling I called and he confirmed it was the same thing.
Any way, I stopped the lisinopril completely and informed my doctor thru his medical assistant, who relayed that although the doctor doublted lisinopril was the cause, he cautioned that I keep checking my BP. (I have been taking Verapamil for seven years to control it, but this new doctor wanted the BP even lower, so he put me on lisinopril in addition.)
I stayed off it for ten days and the numbing of the hands and feet vanished. But to verify that it is the lisinopril, I took one pill two days ago and woke up with strong tinkling in my right hand and lesser amount in my left hand.
Even today, as I am writing this, I still experience tinkling or numbness in both hands.

Trouble breathing, congestive heart failure, spent 72 hours in the hospital and the bill was $9000.00 because of Lyrica. Swelling of hands, feet and face, with fluid on my lungs...it helped the pain, it was totally gone, Also had depression and rapid weight gain.
Are there any law suits pending?
