Anyone here with a history of tachycardia that are on stimulants
So i have a history of tachycardia it's not as serious anymore like it used to be i started getting them after a whiplash at 17 and they was pretty bad and they gotten better after my 2nd whiplash injury while i still get tachycardia it's in the lower range most of the times and usually get checked in the er for other things it shows 130s is at it's highest
I recently got a philips e-patch monitor did the 2 weeks i mailed it out and the device malfunction losing all the data now i need to do it again cause my psychiatrist wants me to get clearance to prescribe stimulants i had an ekg and echocardiogram done already which both came with no problems
Idk what to do cause i literally don't want to go another month and half without medication my symptoms are really bad and i already tried the non stimulants options while being on amitriptyline they didn't help and i had bad reaction to both wellbutrin xl and strattera
The wellbutrin worked too well and literally kept me up all night with really fast heart rate and palpitations after i took my next amitriptyline dose and the strattera i took at 10 am and at 12 pm it started to kick in and gave me really heavy sedation i couldn't fight and slept for like 4-5 hours
I'm thinking about trying to see if i can get clearance based off the echocardiogram showing no issues or concerns if not see if the psychiatrist can prescribe me something I'm tired of both my mental and physical fatigue and having no motivation for anything and i always have consistent brain fog
