TLDR: can vyvanse cause acid reflux/heart burn/gerd? if this has happened to you, what was your experience and what were your symptoms?

hi everyone, i’m wondering if anyone here has had a similar experience to me.

i’ve been on vyvanse for nearly 3 years now (i think) and recently ive started experiencing what i think is acid reflux/heart burn/gerd.

roughly 2-3 hours after taking vyvanse i’ll start feeling a mild burning sensation in the back of my throat and my stomach will feel very bloated and gassy, kind of like i need to burp but i dont? then ill get a weird sensation on the surface of my tongue, kind of like when your foot is half dead but not as extreme, and a mild metallica taste in my mouth which makes me nauseous. it gets better when i eat food but then comes back about an hour later.

i always eat before taking vyvanse, i drink 3-4L of water every day, i haven’t changed my diet or eating habits. i have however been experiencing what i thought was very low blood pressure from clonidine and melatonin (i made a post a few days ago about it) but now im noticing the connection between my light headedness and these acid reflux symptoms. the first day i experienced the dizziness and feeling faint was also the first day i felt the stomach bloating, nausea and metallic taste in my mouth.

as i mentioned in my last post, i am seeing my GP wednesday morning so i will be discussing this then but in the meantime i would like to hear from others if they’ve had a similar experience and if it was caused by vyvanse?

i’m ngl i can’t stand drew, i think she is a compulsive liar and super manipulative but how she was treated in her marriage made me feel horrible for her. the level of gaslighting she went through was so rough and im SO happy that ralph has been banished to live in the basement. it’s the funniest thing ever and its so deserved

hi i (30F) am pretty sure i have hypothyroidism. i’m seeing my doctor on wednesday to discuss this and i’ll be getting a blood test to check my thyroid, iron ect. however ive developed pretty severe health anxiety over the past couple of months due to not feeling great. my anxiety has been telling me im experience heart failure, despite not having the typical symptoms like water retention, swelling, inability to breath when lying on back ect. from what ive read online i feel like hypothyroidism is the only thing that explains all these symptoms ive gradually started experiencing this year but i still can’t shake the anxiety that im dying!

the symptoms ive been experiencing are:

dizziness that is almost 24/7

horrible fatigue to where i can’t do anything besides take a shower every day

extreme coldness, i’ve always ran cold but not to this extent
a blueish tint to my finger nails, it’s extremely faint but it’s there whenever im cold

hair loss

nausea, not constant but the last few days i’ve been nauseous for a few hours during the day

feeling like my heart is racing, this could just be anxiety but i feel like my anxiety starts after my heart races

body/muscle weakness, kind of ties in with the fatigue, i feel like my muscles are exhausted

struggling to fall asleep and stay asleep because of racing thoughts and an adrenaline rush type of feeling

waking up to pee during the night

a weird internal tremble/vibrating sensation which i thought was my heart at first but ive been able to tell that it isn’t

muscle spasms/twitches, one muscle will repeatedly twitch non stop for hours every day

extreme hunger at night

weight gain and a struggle with losing weight

most evening i’m getting body aches and the feeling of having a fever

catching colds and other sicknesses more frequently

please let me know if any of these symptoms align at all with your experience with hypothyroidism and if they do, what was your diagnostic experience? what tests did you need to get done? are you on medication for it and has it been helping you?

i was on clonidine for a year, built a tolerance so got switched to amitriptyline for a month which didn’t work. now i’ve been back on 100mcg clonidine for 3 weeks and taking melatonin 2mg slow release for 1.5 weeks. last 2 days i’ve been experience what i think is low blood pressure. i’m getting extreme dizziness whenever im not lying or sitting down, low heart rate even after taking vyvanse, nausea, feeling like im going to faint, blurred vision, extremely cold to the point my nails have a bluish tint, shaky hands and the most intense fatigue. i’ll be fine the first 2ish house after waking up and then it’ll suddenly hit me. when it hits my eyes suddenly become really sunked looking and i get horrible shadows under my eyes which match how exhausted i feel despite the fact ive had 8 hours sleep for the past few nights.

i don’t have a blood pressure medicine at home (has been on my list of things to buy for ages) and my doctor isn’t free until wednesday.

does this sound like low blood pressure?

has anyone experienced this before?

i’m going to skip the melatonin tonight to see if i feel better tomorrow but im very confused as this isn’t the first time ive taken this combo of clonidine and melatonin. also super annoying because it’s basically been cancelling out the effects of my vyvanse and i had to spend all day yesterday and now today in bed. im also worried that it might be something other than low blood pressure so i’m too scared to take my dex top up to see if that helps.

i’m sorry if this question is racist and ignorant, i don’t have bad intentions in asking this.

i grew up surrounded by only white people. i recently started working at a club that plays afro beats so for the first time in my life i’m surrounded by a lot of black people and ive noticed a large amount of them have yellow eyes. i know when white people have yellow eyes it’s because of jaundice, is that the same for black people?
are black people more susceptible to illnesses that cause jaundice?
i’ve worked at other clubs before and i’d never seen anyone with yellow eyes so i doubt that it’s got anything do with with alcohol liver damage?

sorry i’m genuinely curious

i (30F, age & sex not bra size) have had saggy breasts for as long as i can remember and they are severely impacting my quality of life.

the first time i realised that mine don’t look like others was when i was 15. my friend stayed for a sleepover and when she got changed in front of me i saw her breasts and realised that hers didn’t look like mine. this led me to researching online what breasts should look like which is how i discovered that mine were saggy.

i’ve wondered if i developed this way because before i even had proper breasts i wore a push up bra 24/7, even to sleep in. my weight has fluctuated a lot over the past 10 years (i’ve weighed everything between 39kg & 88kg) which has made them worse.

no one has seen me topless in the last 10 years, this has caused issues in every relationship i’ve had since i was 20. i haven’t owned a bikini or any bathing suit for 7 years. i don’t own any dresses or nice tops. i haven’t dated or had sex in nearly 4 years because i cringe during physical intimacy.

i have done everything in my power to accept myself. i had weekly therapy for 2.5 years, not specifically because “i hate my saggy tits” but because i told myself i must have some deep rooted self esteem issues blocking me from loving how they look. i hoped that the older i got, the less of a problem it’ll be. i’ve dreamt about getting a lift and a slight reduction for a decade now. this year i reached the point of accepting that i can’t accept how they look because i realised that i’m basically wasting my younger years being miserable about it. i decided i would start saving for a lift and reduction and i went through all my finances and wrote up a plan on how i would save for this procedure and how long it’ll take me until i can afford it ect. but then in march i found myself suddenly chronically ill and unable to work.

i feel completely stuck right now. i know that suddenly being chronically ill should be the thing im focused on instead of something so shallow and superficial but my god is it hard to want to deal with a chronic illness when you already hate the body you are in. on the days that i don’t feel so ill i want to be able to look nice and i can in the sense of putting on makeup and styling my hair but i cant in the sense of wearing a nice outfit. i cant even wear cute pyjamas to try and make myself feel better on days i dont feel good, i’m stuck in hugely oversized tshirts and hoodies. i have no hope left of being able to get a lift and reduction at an age young enough where i dont look back on my life and think “i wasted my life because of insecurity” and it’s seriously depressing me.

can’t say that i’m surprised that a man lacks the ability to communicate and is afraid of commitment but i certainly am disappointed as i’d hoped he really was a genuinely nice guy.

him wanting to keep the relationship a secret is just his way of being able to act single while still having access to a women whenever he chooses.

i was 14, had never watched porn, never heard any description on how to give a blow job, had never even touched a penis before and i was drunk.

i took the term blow job literally.
so i put it in my mouth and instead of sucking, i started blowing. full chipmunk cheeks and all.

safe to say he did not ejaculate.
to make matters worse, this was done on a trampoline in the garden of a high school party where my classmates saw and sprayed us with a hose.

at the time i thought he just had a really small penis, as i got older i realised he just couldn’t stay erect because of how bad i was.

phaedra was my favourite, up until now obviously 😭 i can’t believe the insane lies she told porsha about kandi???
what the fuck

i’ve spent maybe the last 5 years just wearing baby tees because i can never find cute tops that fit.

i wear size 10 but i have DD-E cups. i just really want some cute black going out tops like everyone else :(

if so, what was your experience like?

what products did you buy?

how was shipping?

would you recommend buying from the website?

i’m currently trying to expand where i buy skincare from. i’ve now bought skincare from yesstyle and sulskin.

one day i was a bit constipated, so i was sat on the toilet for about 15 minutes before i was done and ready to wipe and stuff. i suddenly got hit with the 2nd worse vertigo ive ever experienced, roughly 2 weeks after my first every vertigo episode. the vertigo made my heart rate jump up to 140bpm, i became super sweaty, weak, shaky, nauseous. i genuinely thought i was going to die and i genuinely felt like i was fighting my life wiping my butt so that no one would find my dead body on the toilet with an unwiped butt.

this happened in march, i have never felt the same since then. i now suffer with a huge fear of sitting on the toilet and i believe my fear triggers my vertigo whenever i do go to the toilet. it’s pretty embarrassing but i have to laugh at myself bc if i don’t i will cry. basically i can’t poop anymore unless i feel like i’m on the verge of pooping in my pants and because of this i’ve been finding i’m constipating myself. i will sometimes hold it for 3 days before realising its been 3 days. before all this i was a poop 1-3 times a day, every single day type of person.

anyway now every time i do sit on the toilet, i instantly have vertigo and i think i have ptsd bc i am instantly mentally transported back to that day. that one day changed my life.

i placed my first order on yesstyle last weekend and my order still says “processing”.
i’m wondering if anyone else has ordered from there before and if so, roughly how long did it take for your order to arrive?
did you receive tracking?
i know the site is legit but i’ve read very mixed reviews in terms of shipping and tracking details and just want a rough idea on what to expect!

for about 2 years now the green camera light has been randomly turning on for a few seconds, almost every time i go to unlock my phone and randomly while i’m using my phone. it doesnt appear to be linked to any specific app i’m using.

today when i went to unlock my phone, the green camera light came on and it stayed on. so i turned my screen off and went to unlock my phone again and immediately it came back on and stayed on again. i left my phone unlocked to see how long it would stay on for. it stayed on until my screen turned off. so again i unlocked my phone and again the light came back. i turned my phone off and left it off for about 5 minutes. when i turned my phone back on and unlocked my screen, the light didn’t come back.

i went through my apps and turned off access to camera and microphone in all apps that had access to it.

i’m quite paranoid as my ex boyfriends friend is a huge technology nerd, as in he knows how to hack things and he also does cyber security work. he does some pretty dark stuff online. he and my ex are not nice people and i have often wondered if they have ever hacked into my phone.

something that might be worth mentioning is that over the past couple of months my phone has become really glitchy and my battery dies really quickly, even when i’m not using my phone the battery percentage will go down. i’m not sure if this is relevant or if it’s just that my phone is nearly 3 years old.

any sort of information, advice or reassurance would be super helpful and greatly appreciated

it’s currently 2:30am monday morning, i slept 3 hours sunday morning. i’m exhausted and i can not fall asleep due to how bad my pain is.

i’ve had to take an extra dose of my prescription painkillers due to being awake so long and still i don’t have enough pain relief to be able to sleep. i recently had a mould issue in my home and had to throw away my heat packs, tens machine and hot water bottles. i can’t have a hot bath or shower because of the time, i do not live alone.

ive spent the entire day just restlessly rolling around in bed, on and off sobbing. my cramps are always in my lower stomach, lower back, butt and thighs but this is the first time my cramps have gone all the way into my calves and feet. nothing is even remotely relieving my pain and i’m bleeding through my super tampons very quickly.

is there anything you could suggest i try that i would have immediate access to do? like any specific sort if stretching or something like that?
i’m so desperate for relief and sleep right now.
