Yeah Link, the chromosomal damage report is kind of scary. The other one that was kind of scary was the report on increased tumors in mice. The few reports of sudden death due to heart failure are equally worrisome.
Everytime I see such reports, I do get worried. On the other hand, people have been taking this for 40 years without any visible problems. This is why I try to limit doses and take prolonged breaks from stims (so that I am not endlessly increasing doses). Hopefully this approach makes me less prone to potential long-term health problems from use of the drug, but there are still no guarantees, with this med, or with life in general.
