Hi, Just Had A Rather Intresting Day. I Havent Been

Posted on Fri, 10 Jul 2020
Question: Hi, just had a rather intresting day. I havent been sick in years and dont stress about my health or anything. I am a 24 year old male currently taking vyvanse 50mg and 10mg amphetamine salts daily At around 5pm my eyes felt gross and heavy, felt lost/confused/weak/sensitive to light out of no where. Layed down on my couch and stayed awake until a few minutes after 7pm and the only thing I can barely recall is being between a dream and semi awake spasming until I was awake and checked my phone at 720ish to see how long I was asleep. Felt very groggy after waking up but after an hour i started feeling more awake and normal.
During my awarness of what was happening I recall trying to fight to keep my eyes open out of fear but i can't say if I was aware for 1 second on 30 seconds to be honest. I also just realized I had medium pain present on the right eye socket when I put pressure on it with my hands but that has been gone since waking up at 720pm. Thank you very much for the help also.

Brief Answer:
Hypotension episode possible.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, welcome to Ask a doctor's service.
I read your query and here is my advice.

I think this can be related to any hypotension episode.
I believe it may have been a side effect related to the medications that you are taking.
You layed on couch for 20 minutes may have helped you to feel better.
I think you may need to drink fluids now to bring it back to normal. Have water or fruit juices and you will be better.
I don't think this can be something to worry about.

Hope I have answered the question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
