Anyone with weird medication side effects?

New here with questions
I've been on 50 mg of Vyvanse for a few months.My doctor recently added 10mg of ritalin when the vyvanse starts dulling. I only take adhd meds when I work. I'm having a lot of bak pain and muscle pain on days I take the meds. Sometimes my whole body hurts. Anyone else have a similar experience.

Is this common?
I'm a 42-year-old male. For twenty years I have dealt with ocd and depression. Recently I was diagnosed with ADHD and put on Vyvanse. It seemed to help for a while. Eventually I was put on the max dose. For about 3 months now, I have noticed some big changes. I have this constant feeling of anxiousness

My kiddo just received that prescription and after reading about it, I am quite hesitant to have her try it as it is not as straight forward as Vyvanse or Concerta. I'm also concerned bc she has been diagnosed with low

Confused on what to do
Hi! I am a undergrad college student struggling with severe ADHD. I am currently taking 70 mg of Vyvanse and 2 mg of Guanfacine to help me manage my symptoms, and it doesn't seem to be helping a whole lot. I have currently been hyper focusing on finding tools that can help me manage my symptoms throughout
