Methylphenidate to treat add while on Lupron ?

Anyone have any issues with add meds like methylphenidate while on Lupron post radiation ??

This is only to treat add diagnosis and not any tiredness or lethargy from any treatment related to PC. (Which has been extremely minimal)

I researched no problems with this and rad onc didn’t have any issue.

I wondered if anyone else was being treated successfully for both PCA and adult attention deficit disorder at the same time ?

I have been on ritalin before and during all my treatments, there are no issues. I see no reason not to continue, treating my add has made my life better.

Take care

Bill

Without the ritalin I am draggin' my wagon every day. With it I am riding my wagon. In other words, ritalin boosts my energy significantly. I take 2.5 mg daily.
