Hi Kap,

I’ve been trying find to the right Rx and dose for about 6 months now. I’ve been on Concerta for almost 3 months, changing the dose each month. I’m about ready to give up. I will put up with the side effects IF I can find a dose that actually seems to help me focus on a consistent basis. How can I feel nervous, irritable, light headed and still unable to focus? Does that mean the dose is too high or too low? If I take less the focus is worse. I tried Vyvanse and was more irritable and focus was also intermittent. After 2 months I realized that the mysterious rash I had was due to a drug allergy, to the Vyvanse! Any way, I’m a 57yom professional who was recently diagnosed. Maybe meds are not gonna work for me.
