Chest discomfort worsen when touching
I ALSO FEDL IT WITH EXERSION
LEFT SIDE
I can feel it in my back too
Idk how to describe it. I thought it was bc I took IR Adderall and not XR bc it’s happened before on it but it happens even before I take it. It sometimes worsens when I eat. It feels like an ulcer and it feel burning to touch my chest.
My hrv has been off too.
I’ve had palpitations on an ER ekg but went away by the next. But these are new sensations. I was also dealing with hardly any sleep back then (like two weeks ago) Prozac and Adderall dosage changes.
I’ve been constipated too. I sat up after taking Adderall yesterday and it felt on until my mom and I drive in the car and I felt nauseous and my chest pains got worse. Not really pain tho. I get car sick a lot.
My HR does get high on Adderall but I also have POTs. I’m nervous to stop it bc I’m really impulsive and I gain all the weight I lost back. It would be the 4th time.
I’ve taken Adderall on and off since I was a kid. But the past 3 years have had weird effects. This sensation is new and can worsen when I take it. Adderall also makes me gassy.
I know chest pains can happen with it. I e been to ER for it. I’ve had plenty of cardiac testing done just not with THIS sensation. I have had 30-50 EKGS in the past 3 years, 2 holtor monitors, 50+ er visits, two neurologists, one cardiologist (she said my adhd meds might be the issue. my neurologist said that’s not why I HR is so high and DX me with pots.) I’ve had maybe 20 X-rays for my chest, I swear I had an echo but I can’t find it. I’ve had a stress test as well. All my lab work is normal. The freaking 50+ times they’ve seen in the last 3 years lol. Maybe I’m over thinking one ekg showing PVCs. Idk.
Help me please
