Binge eating question

Hey all. I have BED, and have until a couple of months ago, been on Vyvanse to control it. It worked well, however I have MS and it didn't do anything for my fatigue. My neuro put me on Adderall for my fatigue, which has been a life changer to say the least, however it doesn't really help my bingeing. I have gained 80 pounds in the last few months that I have been off of it.

Has anyone had experience with BED and Adderall? I am prescribed 10mg twice a day, but I only take 10mg a day because if I take another one later, I don't sleep. I could take them both at once, I just don't know how I would react to it and if it would help the eating problem?

Looking for any help. Thanks.

    I would bring all this up to the doctor that prescribed you the Adderall or a general practitioner. They may be able to answer your question or possibly refer you to a nutritionist.

    Hi, how many months did it take for you to gain the 80 pounds? If you are binging to that degree, perhaps you should see someone who specializes in BED.
