Reply To: Adderall XR post heart attack

[30withastory]

I am 30 years old, run 4 miles,  3-5 times a week, and I weigh 158lbs…    I am not overweight and have no one in my family that has ever had heart disease and have never even had chest pain.  I did take 20-30mg of Sandoz generic a day and have been taking adderall for about 8 years.

I had an acute MI in my LAD last August and I have not been back on adderral since.  Alhough i would really like to get back on it, I feel like this was a major cause of my heart attack which doesnt seem to be sold to the doctors, but I dont think they are willing to put me back on.  Will adderall not mess your BP, heart rate ect?  Why would doctors let you get on any stimulants given a heart attack?  I am just curious because i want to explore any safe options the doctors advise.  I am trying to avoid going 6 ft under since I was really close…

Ironically, this was the month i switched to Sandoz generic from XR…   havent touched it again…
