> > Hi there, Judith... I am on Adderall, and I was having the same problems you described. I was wondering if you drink much coffee? When I first started the Adderall, I was drinking a pot of coffee a day. One day I ran out of my creamer, so I didn't have my coffee. I didn't really miss it that much, so I decided just to quit drinking it. I noticed after a couple of days that the tension in my jaw and all the other side effects from it were gone! I still have a 20oz Coke a day, but that doesn't really do any damage. I would certainly give it a whirl if that could possibly be the culprit!

Judith,Just a thought but the Nutrasweet could be the culprit as well. It will give me muscle tension and a migraine within minutes, if I take it in any form. It has recently been linked to MS symptoms as well. A friend of mine a few years back who was otherwise healthy, began having unexplainable "mini seizures." She went from specialist to specialist with no satisfaction until one doctor asked about her consumption of diet drinks. She was drinking them all day, like water. She stopped the Nutrasweet and guess what? No more seizures.
Nutrasweet is bad stuff. Poison. Stay away from it!
Be well.
