Strattera and Vyvanse.

I started taking Ritalin about 4 months ago after being diagnosed. It did NOT work, as it simply made me feel like I drank about 4 pots of strong coffee, and then crash like hell about midday. So I switched to Azstarys, which did the same thing only with no crash (It lasted the FULL 12 hours). So I switched to Strattera about 2 months ago, and am taking 50mgs. I have gotten pretty much ZERO from it, and other than not being hungry at all, I wouldn't know I was taking anything at all.

I saw my doctor today, and she suggested I try continuing the Strattera for now, and added Vyvanse. I asked her what was the point, since I couldn't tolerate the other stimulants I tried, and she said that the others were methylphenidate and this was amphetamine, and that many people who can't tolerate one do well on the other.

So I basically have two questions here- has anyone on here had a similar situation, and couldn't tolerate the methylphenidate but did well on the Vyvanse? (I like to hear real people's accounts on things. To me, no doctor, no matter how knowledgeable they may be, can give "real life" experience than someone who's been there.)

My second question is, anybody on here do this combination (Vyvanse and Strattera)? I know everybody's different, it's just nice to hear what others have experienced.
