Had anyone else experienced Raynauds Phenomenon whilst taking Elvanse it a really rare side effect where you struggle to get circulation in either your hand or feet. I have been on the meds since November 2022 and it only happened to my feet about 3 weeks ago after my elvanse was increased to 40mg.

      @Alistrange They just said it was the blood vessels being restricted in my hand? Which I though was kinda weird. But any time they get cold especially, they really show they are cold. And it sucks. I don't remember if the very first time it happened if I was on and meds. I was actually just walking in walmart with my family and noticed.It was blue all over the palm of my hand down to my wrist. It freaked me out. And then I lost feeling in my hand. And dropped whatever I had in my hand. It happened a Second time so I saw my dr.

      I have raynauds syndrome. My hands get cold and turn blue down to my wrists. At times I lose feeling in them and drop whatever is in my hands. Sometimes they get hot and red. They always hurt too.

        @DogWhisperer did you get tests done as to what could be causing it? I had full blood works but everything was fine. So that's why they said it could be my adhd medication as it was listed as a side effect 1 in a 100 get raynauds phenomenon from certain medications.
