<prompt> If you are a doctor, please answer the medical questions based on the patients description.i was prescribed adderrall when I was younger, but quit taking it during j.r. high. in this past year I had recreationally taken adderrall 7-10 times. I had never had a problem with it before, until two days ago I had taken one and notice I felt like I was short of breath, and no matter how deep I would breathe in I couldn t get enough air. the feeling eventually went away so I didn t think to much about it. except I woke up today and took one early in the morning 8:00 and started to notice me getting short of breath again. Several hours later I noticed a tingling sensation in both my arms, It gradually became more severe then moved up to my face, my whole face, including my tounge. I went to tell my girl friend who was sitting beside me what was goin on and noticed I was slurring my speech and couldn t help it. I was going to go to the ER, but when I steped out the truck and started walking around it all jus slowly died down. So question is what could have caused that? and if it was just the adderrall why is it affecting me differently now?  <response>: Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your situation and problem. By your history and description, possibility of transient ischemic attack TIA is more. It is sudden occlusion blood vessels and thus stoppage of blood supply of some part of brain. So momentarily, that part of brain functions less and gives the symptoms of sensory disturbance tingling, slurred speech, died down etc. So better to consult neurologist and get done 1. Clinical examination of Central nervous system CNS.2. MRI brain 3. Blood pressure monitoring 4. ECG and 2d echo to rule out heart diseases. 5. Cholesterol levels. So better to diagnose yourself first and then start appropriate treatment. Hope I have solved your query. Wish you good health. Thanks.
