Hey,
I have ADHD and take dexy and vyvanse. But I just got diagnosed with HSD and POTS from my rheumatologist. He’s suggested that my psychiatrist prescribe me more dexys so I can have a bunch in the morning to help with my fatigue. I’ve been trialing it while waiting for my appointment and I must say, it works. My BP sits low anyway I just discovered approx 114/60. Which is on the border of being hypotensive. Which explains all the d*** fatigue! So if it increases my BP then I’m all for it. Need more oxygen to my brain. The only concern I have is increased HR, but I’m sitting around 90-100 bpm. Which is higher but still normal, so I’ll take it. If you’ve always struggled with fatigue, never feel rested or have never had a restorative sleep I would suggest trying it. I wish I had this medication a decade ago. It’s really helped me function. And I am no longer self medicating with other drugs or stimulants or coffee/energy drinks. I use to have about 8 a day. I know - bad. But if you have POTS there’s also a chance you have some sort of HSD as they are comorbid (but might not) if so, it’s not something that you can fix. So I would say that supplementing it with dexys to bring your BP up is something that’s worth a try. I hope it helps.
