Taking Vyvanse. Having Pain Radiating From Chest To Arm. Breathing And Pulse Rate Normal. Suggeations

I am taking 30 mg vyvanse and am having acute pain radiating from my chest to my arm every minute or so, I'm breathing fine. This has been happening for about 8 hours, it has never happened before. My resting pulse is around 100 which is normal. I've taken it in the past but stopped for six months and have recently started taking it again (about a month ago). I never had pain when I took it before. Can you help me?

Psychiatrist,  's  Response
Hi there ~

I understand your concerns. Vyvanse is a medication for ADHD ad if you have radiating pain from chest to arm and your breathing and pulse rate have been high recently, I suggest that you stop taking the medication and see your psychiatrist immediately after informing his office of the noticed side effects. You should be able to switch the medication if it is not working for you.

I hope this helps. Take care and have a lovely day!
