How much does aderall/vivance help "brain fog" due to Lupus & Fibromyalgia?

I am an adhd person prescribed Adderall and when starting to get dosage correct it was very racy and uncomfortable if the dosage is wrong but when it's the right dosage I am able to focus on the task at hand
It does help slightly with my pain as I have degenerative disc disease thru out my spine after a foolish thing as a dumbass teenager and its now catching up to me and now after my latest accident of a broken radius that had a plate installed one of the screws shattered the bone and is now causing nerve damage. So unfortunately there have been times I'm out of my Adderall and go 2 or 3 days with out it and let me tell you I start to realize I need it to get out of my own way so point being on the right dose I'm not feeling all jittery and jumpy but feeling a little like I used to or at least I feel better able to go on with my day and accomplish progress of some sort lol thanks for reading my babbling hope it helps someone

Fibromyalgia, Lupus, Sjogrens, Arthritis (neck, lumbar spine, hands, knees), Diverticulosis, brain fog, migraines, gallbladder removed. First, to help most of the issues above stop eating all processed foods, dairy and sugar. Drink plenty of filtered water with electrolytes, add lemon juice and apple cider vinegar w/mother. Eliminate starches, night shade vegetables. Research supplements and talk to your doctor! Exercise. Working and running around all day isn’t working out. Take tome for yourself and exercise (easy yoga, walking) BREATH!

I've been battling & still am Fibromyalgia, lupus, hashimotos, ect... I saw your message, I completely related to it, any tho its older. I always say what if the cure is worse than the disease??? Its an on going battle when you have a chronic disease. Never ever ending... On & on... My comment or answer is for any1 who can relate. My number 1 issue besides all the meds & those issues is the loss of ALL ENERGY !!! I use to be high energy & had a very active life & now I'm totally & completely exhausted all the time & feel like every1 is living life & I'm on the sidelines watching.

I have had fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome for 11 years. "Fibro Fog" has been a daily part of my life. Just within the last 6 weeks I have been prescribed Adderall partly bc of the "fog." My doctor and I are still working on the precise dosage for me but it has worked WONDERS for the fog. Without the med it is hard to do every day things that are on my "to do" list bc I can't concentrate on any one thing at a time. Not to mention my brain feels "fuzzy." (I don't know how else to describe the feeling.)

With the adderall I''m MUCH more clear headed and can focus on one thing at a time. I also have chronic fatigue syndrome and the med helps to motivate me so that I can accomplish much more than I used to.

I hope I've helped in some way. Good luck!

I have been wondering about the affects of adderall or a similar drug on my brain fog as well. I talked to my Rheumatologist and she has used a few different thing to help patients and was going to try adderall for me but because i also have epilepsy she wants me to talk to my neurologist. I see her next week to talk about about it and I hope I see some possitive results. I have previously used another med but my rheumatologist thinks that adderall will work better. I will let you know how it goes.

I have been suffering from the fog for a bit now, too and I was wondering if Adderall would help. This is the first post I have seen that someone was rx'd Adderall. I am sorry I don't have an answer for you but I would like to know if/how much it helps you? I understand not wanting to be on so many medications. I am weaning myself off of the Amitriptyline because it was rx'd for sleep and I am getting sleep now... albeit not very good. :(
I am sure someone will stop by to help soon.

Best to you!
