Lisdexamphetamine And Methylphenidate Combination

So recently I'm on a new combination of drugs. I've been on Lisdexamphetimine(Vyvanse) 70 MG for months now, and i voiced a concern to my doctor about how I didn't feel it lasted long enough. So the other day my doc wrote a script for Methlyphenidate(Ritalin) 10 MG to take in addition to the Vyvanse. I'm curious if anyone else has experience taking multiple stimulants at the same time? If so, I'd love to hear what your experience was like. Any input helps.

I haven't taken them, but I can tell you that they usually augment each other. Thus, you may experience more nausea, dizziness, headache and insomnia than usual, as listed by the FDA.

Can anyone that's taken both chime in?

How are you doing taking both?

I posted that question a little while ago, so recently my doctor has changed the Methylphenidate 10mg to Adderall IR 10mg because I had such a hard time getting the Methylphenidate filled at pharmacies in my area. I feel like I'm doing alright on this combination but I can definitely say that the Adderall seems alot stronger than the Methylphenidate did and I also notice that I have a harder time getting to sleep now. Does anyone have any similar experience?
