[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I took stimulant medication and now have heart disease.  An aneurysm from high blood pressure.  
I am on heart medication and will probably need open heart surgery in the future.
You will probably ignore my post.  [/quote]

Did you have any other contributing factors to your heart disease? I ask because my DD is on concerta, and while I can see that it is helpful(we put it off until it was affecting her life in every aspect) and because there is also a history of a lot of heart disease on both sides of the family. How can I as a parent make the right decision? DD was so hyper before that she was acting as if she was high before starting meds at 15. I just watched this documentary and I really don't know what to think or do anymore.[/quote]

My child takes Vyvanse, and high blood pressure can be a side effect. We check his blood pressure on a monthly basis (along with weight) to make sure it's where it should be. So far we haven't had any problems.[/quote]
