I have been on about 60mg daily of adderall and I too have experienced terrible, scarie pain, paralysis and numbness wiith both arms, wrists, hands. I don't know what to do or how to get an answer?!!
This is kind of like in a panic attack, only with physical - hurting - symptions
Yes i get numbness in my thumbs too and sometimes my hands and even my legs! this is only when i am "coming down" from it. and everything gets kind of spacey and i become tired and my anxiety starts up really bad, like the tightness in chest feeling and i feel irritated and lose my motivation. the first 4 or 5 hours i take adderall 20mg i feel great! it balances me and fights my depression too and i don't experience my anxiety during those 4 or 5 hours but as soon as it wears off it all comes back...anyone else have that?
I have also been taking adderall xr 20 mg. for 1 year. Recently been suffering with numbness and tingling in my right hand and toes. The tingling in my hand is the most irritating. I see that others have had this issue as well, and wonder if there is anything to be done about it. Has anyone switched medications?
I switched meds. It was not something that I preferred but it was because of my insurance not wanting to cover XR. It was not the best thing. I am a college student who has been using the XR for the past 3-4 years. I experienced a huge panic attack and I did not think that it was related to my med, since this is the only thing I take and I live a healthy life. I thought it was stress and my doctor said it was a panic attack. I was able to switch back from the reg to XR again. this time, my doctor did 15 mg two times a day. before, it was a 10mg, than 5 mg a few hours later, and than another 10 mg if needed. for the past few months I have been experiencing the hands tingling feeling and I think that its the 15 mg getting into my system all at once. I am a psych major but also a bio + chem Degree. I may be studying this way too much, but I think that it has a lot to do with your body weight and how much you take. At least I think that is the problem with my med. I hope that I can figure it out soon, because i don't like this
