Overactive thyroid, and ADHD w/ adderall? |
Hi, recently i was diagnosed with ADHD combined type. I also have noticed other non-adhd related problems, such as being more intolerant to heat, increased sweating, possible slight hair loss, irritable bowel syndrom. I cant afford a blood test to check my thyroid, but i feel one would be wise considering some of my symptoms could be related to overactive thyroid. Heat sensativity problem started 4'ish years ago. I also smoke cigarettes and marijuana. Adderall increases heart rate, so does cigs and pot, i exercise rarely, as does overactive thyroid. So i understand how the heart is at risk. Ive been counting my pulse to as a precaution at different times. w/o meds pulse is about 88-96 avg. 20-45 min after taking its around 104-112, then within an hour or so it drops back to normal. If i had overactive thyroid, would heart probably stay in the higher range throughout much of the day? (symptoms) are probably caused from the Adderall. its an upper so it raises body temp,bp and heart rate which will make you sensitive to heat..hair loss comes with age and irritable bowel is also adderalls fault. the pot is working against the adderall you cant do both without having some kind of side effect woah thats weird, i have the same symptoms and i have add and take adderall. im getting my thyroid tested too, i dunno what it is but maybe its just a side affect of the medication |
