Heaviness In Arms, Splotchy Marks After Taking Vyvanse. Having Anxiety, Burning Sensation In Head, Hot, Cold Flashes. Reason?
I took 40 mg of vyvanse and when it started wearing off my arms felt heavy and made these red splotchy marks everywhere the veins around my arm are bruised, and I have very bad anxiety , I took my lorazepam and slept for about 3 hours but now I am awake and I still feel the burning in my arms anf still have bad anxiety. What should I do and why is the spot by my wrist: veins bruised. My arms hurt and my head feels like its burning as well I get hot then I get cold .

Hi
Vyvanse is Dexamphetamine that is prescribed for ADHD. I suppose you took to get a high for some fun. Single dose generally doesn;t cause such withdrawl but in some ,it may cause. If anxiety persists, it may need SSRI but you should wait for a week before doing anything
Good Luck
