Vyvanse?
hi all,
been dealing with MCAS for years now. On LDN, cromolyn, and progesterone (My hormones have been a mess since getting Covid and dealing with this long haul crap). some of my biggest symptoms are rapid heart rate, insomnia and mood issues. My insomnia is next level after being diagnosed with ADHD and starting a very low dose of Vyvanse. Vyvanse does WONDERS to my mental health and brain capacity and my executive function, but the no sleep and also muscle and joint pain it’s causing is beyond. I was put on Lunesta and it’s been the only thing to help. For the last few years I have been just dealing with the insomnia because medications normally do the opposite of what they should for me (melatonin keeps me up, etc).
has anyone ever had this experience? I’m trying to figure out if any medication will ever work normally on me. Anyone successfully use a stimulant? How about sleep? What are we doing to help that?
thanks!
