I heart Focalin - THANKS RJ!!!

Posted by ChicagoKat on November 28, 2012, at 17:20:47

Dear rj,

If you were here, I would kiss you. My first day on Focalin and I think you were SO right. I think I love this drug. You are so right about it being smoother. It doesn't really give me a high like regular Ritalin, but it more quietly makes me feel good, and even calm. And the positve effects last much longer than they did with regualr Ritalin. I still end up getting anxious after I take it, but it comes on much later after I take a dose, and the anxiety is nowhere near as bad as it is with regular Ritalin. My Gabapentin and Klonopin easily handle it, when they never really did with the regular drug. And, as a wonderful bonus, it nowhere near raises my blood pressure and heart rate as much as the plain Ritalin. I already feel healthier on it. With regular Ritalin I was always thinking, 'Oh my poor little heart' and wondering when the stroke would happen. I don't feel at all that way on Focalin. I'll most likely be able to cut back on my antihypertensives which will make me feel healthier too.

Obviously I can't say enough good things about Focalin. It's the first day, and who knows, maybe all this positive stuff will go down the toilet at some point. But thus far I am so impressed.

I truly want to thank you from the bottom of my happier heart rj...what a great recommendation. You go man!!!! I hope you are well, and thanks again. :)

Ive got a really bad disease
Its got me begging on my hands and knees
So take me to emergency
Cause somethin seems to be missing
Somebody take the pain away
Its like an ulcer bleeding in my brain
