> Am I going to have a stroke if I go running while on my Adderall? I was already getting severe excersise migraines when I'd excersise, but Imatrex made me sick. Is there a connection? Am I going to bust a vessle up there? I need to get off the couch and into the gym, but not if it's going to turn me into Kirk Douglas.

************************************************Have you had high blood pressure in the past? Do you have it now? Have you taken your blood pressure both on and off Adderall? Why don't you have your doctor monitor it, and also look into buying a home blood pressure monitor. The old fashioned manual ones are supposed to be the most accurate, but you have to teach yourself how to use it (it's not hard to learn). The digital automatic ones are more expensive, but a little easier and quicker to use. I heard that the Omron automatic ones are good. Look in Consumer Reports for home BP monitor ratings. That way, you can check your BP yourself and rest assured.
