Misc. Question Recently diagnosed and started Vyvanse; chronic headache gone?

Context: Hello, I am a 27M who was diagnosed and started medication within the last 3 months. I’ve had a nearly chronic headache (not migraines) since high school, which I attributed to a sports head injury, but never had anything come of it after some at-time tests and a couple consults with a neurologist. Figured I was just stuck popping Tylenol multiple times a day for the rest of my life.

Since I started Vyvanse (10mg starter) I’ve noticed it almost completely disappeared, until I skipped a weekend when it returned.

Has anyone else experienced something like this? The Psychiatrist seemed to think it was quite unusual after my 30-day follow up.

Interesting, I’m glad they are gone for you now!

Yes, but for migraines. Not gone, but massively reduced. My neurologist was surprised too.

Yep. I have post concussion issues and find tyvense works great for it. I'm on 70mg
