[QUOTE]Originally posted by LOA: [QB] He started you at just 10mg a day? wow.... short acting only lasts 4-6 hours so I'd imagine that it's not doing much for you... I was up to 10mg 3x a day within a week. 3 weeks after that, we doubled it to 20mg 3x a day. Though, doctors don't usually "start small" with me... my body tends to metabolize medications like no other..... Though Charles will likely scoff at this comment, I have no ADHD tendancies and the Adderall hasn't helped me concentrate or anything like that. It DID help to offset the cognitive SE's of the Topamax I'm taking though, I will attest to that! Topamax makes a person as dumb as a box of rocks for the first few weeks after a dose increase, but the addition of Adderall to the Topamax seems to have simply cancelled out that side effect so I'm just... me. It's a shame that you can't afford a true sleep study, but I can understand why you can't... even after my insurance pay-out (and I'm blessed with REALLY good insurance!) my out of pocket cost was close to $700 for the overnight sleep study and the daytime nap study. I'm finally going to be done paying it off this month, thankfully.... that's a lot of money to be forking out just to have a stranger watch you sleep... but it's nice to have the raw data in front of you when making decisions on how to treat the sleep issues....
