ADHD
"My internist gave me methylphenidate (the active ingredient in Ritalin) for an ADHD disorder that I didn&#039;t even know I had. My God! My world finally made sense, and I was able to finally concentrate on a single task without having something pull me away for no earthly reason. And on top of that, the peripheral neuropathy in my feet, courtesy of a few early drugs in the HIV era, disappeared... totally. I didn&#039;t even need my methadone until I began to develop a tolerance for the methylphenidate. I&#039;m the only person my pharmacist has heard of who experienced this effect, but I am sure not complaining. This is truly a miracle drug for me, but since I went to a larger insurance company, with it&#039;s own doctors, it&#039;s been refused  it to me."
