> I have been on a stimulant, very successfully, for almost 2 months for ADD and have done extremely well. This past week, I had an extremely long and stressful day where I felt flushed, and my blood pressure was actually way up--my normal BP is about 112/75...went to 135/83. Does anyone have any experience with this being a transient thing, especially if the long and stressful days are rare?
What Stimulant are you on?
Dosage?
Were you drinking alot of Tea, Coffee, little water intake? ALL these thinks can play a MAJOR issue on your situation, job issues etc. ok?My PcDoc took my BP and weight EVERY time i saw him the first few months i took Ritalin.
Cheers
