Title: Ritalin for CH?
Post by hdido on Apr 23^rd, 2005, 1:01pm

I've seen a few posts in which people wrote of the possibility of using Ritalin to stop CH pain-I've not heard of that before and wonder if anyone knows more about it, either through personal experience or their own research. Thanks!

I am supposed to use time released Ritalin for my ADD. Before kudzu, I couldn't take it at all. It made shadows worse the day I took it and, almost every time, it made the next day miserable. Since kudzu, it still makes the shadows a little worse on the same day (but overall shadows are easy and very short lived) but the next day is OK. I still don't use it everday. There are a couple of threads about Ritalin here. Use the search at a time when the boards aren't too busy.
Pain free wishes, nani :)
