You may find that 30mg works equally well for you.
With your history, as you've disclosed it here, are you certain that Vyvanse is a safe medication for you? I've suggested in the past that you consider trying Strattera again without the Prozac -- there is a reason it's contraindicated, and you may find that it's a great choice for you with Zoloft or Lexapro. When I took Strattera with Zoloft, I found it pretty wonderful. It's on my list of "well, if this combo doesn't work well enough..." meds, as something I'd try again without (much) fear.
I hope you'll let us know what your doctor has to say about it. When do you see him again? I get the feeling you haven't brought this up with him yet, and I look forward to hearing what he has to say when you do.
