medication making adhd worse?

want to preface that it’s done wonders for all my other issues, mental & physical, so i’m definitely grateful & not going to stop, but just wondering if anyone else feels the same.

i have adhd and autism, and when unmedicated i am normally very good at remembering appointments, tasks, being able to organise myself and not get distracted/ sidetracked.

i’ve noticed that in the last few months when i’ve upped my meds to vaping everyday i’m missing appointments, forgetting basic things and finding basic tasks a bit more challenging. most of the time it’s funny, like why did i leave my phone in the fridge?? but it’s a bit concerning…

i’m also wondering that maybe as it’s helped my autism symptoms (sensory issues, anxiety etc) that maybe it’s just given my adhd space to shine 😆

i wonder if anyone recommends a strain that’s helped their adhd more? currently i’m with curaleaf and using wedding pop triangle during the day and lavender at night. i also mix it with CBD flower (sativa for the day & indica for the night)

can ldn cause new pain?

started on 0.25 a month ago and increased to 0.5 a week ago- for me/cfs, mcas, pots

in the last week since increasing to 0.5 I’ve noticed an increase in pain in some places i normally experience pain sometimes, and a flare of new pains- mainly in my finger joints, arm tendons, hips and legs.

I’ve felt the odd pain in my joints sometimes and a noticeable flare when i get my period, but never consistent like this. it’s making me want to go to get check for HEDS as i know that’s frequently coexisting with my other conditions, but i think it’s so strange that LDN could have flared this up and created pain in places i never felt before.

has anyone else experienced this? i want to continue to see if it gets better, but it is worrying me.
