What Causes Rapid Heart Rate And Dizziness While On Adderall And Lamictal?

Hi...I am a 45 year old woman (5'8", 155lbs) who's been experiencing rapid heartbeat, dizziness upon standing and sometimes just walking, left arm pain and rapid breathing. I have developed a cough in the past few days, but the symptoms above were noticed before the onset of the cough. I do drink a lot (a lot) of diet soda, and currently take Adderall, Celexa and Lamictal.

Hello,

Thanks for your query on HCM

"As"per your clinical history is concerned please follow like this -

1)Visit your Doctor today for a detailed clinical examination if any abnormal sign detected do an ECG

2)Do check your Hemoglobin % if low then discuss with your Doctor regarding [Iron sucrose]injection for anemia.

To prevent it follow like this -

1)Take Iron-rich foods which includes meats, beans, lentils, iron-fortified cereals, dark green leafy vegetables, and dried fruit.

2)Take folate. This nutrient and its synthetic form folic acid, can be found in citrus fruits and juices, bananas, dark green leafy vegetables, legumes, and fortified breads, cereals and pasta.

3)Take Vitamin B-12. This vitamin is found naturally in meat and dairy products. It's also added to some cereals and soy products.

4)Take foods containing vitamin C such as citrus fruits, melons and berries which help increase iron absorption.

Hope that helps
