I am seeing my doc today to get more Ritalin perscribed. Ritalin is the only thing that works for my ADD. If I tell him i had 1 seizure years ago, will he take me off the Ritalin???

I totlally didn't tell him i had 1 seizure because I wanted to make sure I got this medication perscribed.

Do you think he'll tell me he can't perscribe it to me because I've had 1 seizure in the past??

I hope not!! please let me know!

I think he will prescribe an anticonvulsant with it, I recommend Lamictal, I take it for bipolar but it doesn't have the effects that other anticonvulsants have, plus a history of a seizure doesn't mean Ritalin will induce one either.
