I am having very STRANGE symtoms lately and I was wondering if it might be the adderall I am taking now. Acne (severe) and I have had this cold that I just can't shake and my left eye is puffy and waters all the time. I am concerned. Could anyone let me know if they have ever experienced an allergic reaction to these meds?

Those are not signs of an allergic reaction. You have a severe cold with some type of eye infection that needs to be treated. See your doc and get this taken care of. As for the severe acne. If it is adult acne it could be a sign of rosacea. The doc can give you medication to help take care of the acne too since acne is caused by the staph bacteria which is contagious so use good handwashing after touching your face. See the doc when you read this if you haven't already done so.

The puffy watery eye could also be from a buildup of secretions or the cold. I have some problems with eye watering lately and the doc sent me right up to the eye specialist when she couldn't find any obvious cause. Eye specialist took one look at me and knew it was my rosacea flaring again. Funny thing is my left eye was bothering and not my right well now since he wanted me to treat both eyes the left is fine and the right is awful. I can't seem to win.
