thanks. My PDoc said to wait a couple days. He agrees with you, Phillipa, that I'm probably just exhausted considering everything that's happened over the past 2 weeks. And I've been up till 4,5,6 every night with mind draining classes and homework. I get up at 8 for school and usually get home at 6:30, screw around till 8 or 9 before I start. There is no break. Not even for a day. Of course I'm not even close to how productive I used to be, so I waste time.
FM--how can you tell if its the spanules? The script says "d-amphetamine 10 MG CAP SA" subsituted for Dexedrine". Is that what you mean? The stuff I had before said d-amphetamine substitud for Dextrat.
I don't like it. It makes me feel a bit nervous, while making me feel tired at the same time. I start yawning a lot after I take it, and it doesn't seem to affect dopamine or help with concentration like the dextrat. It just feels miserable. Should I call him back if after a couple days, this doesn't change? It seems useless to take it; yet, the other one really helped.
At first I thought it was the pharmacy who did that-CVS said they didn't carry it so I took it somewhere else. I originally thought they just gave it to me cause they didn't have the other one. But my doctor said its essentially the same thing. But why not prescribe the other one if its the same? Maybe he is just used to using this particular version.
