Thanks for the reply, Larynxa. My doctor just did blood work a couple of weeks ago–my blood sugar was normal. I’ve also been keeping a close eye on my BP since starting the ADHD meds.

It’s been like this for the past few days:

Most recent: 03/28 12:45pm 104/77

This morning: 03/28 08:50am 118/87

Saturday afternoon: 03/26 04:12pm 101/78

Friday morning: 03/25 09:24am 101/82

And those were all taken after I took Concerta. Maybe I need to speak to my doc about backing off the BP meds. I am still taking the dosage he put me on before I lost 30 pounds.

Of course, it doesn’t help that I have “white coat syndrome”, so every time he checks it, it seems pre-hypertensive. (*rolls eyes* – I think it’s always high in his office because I’ve just run the equivalent of a marathon trying to get myself there on time–see the “I was only 5 minutes late” thread).

Anyhoo, maybe it is just because my BP is under control.

Thanks again for the input. :)
