Question Joint Pain with Concerta

On a hunch I double checked and found out that there is some small incidence of increased joint pain with concerta use.
I am a 40 year old male who has been taking concerta for about 3 months with good to average results. I also have a fairly serious of chronic pain issue due to a severe leg injury. Coincidentally, it seems my leg has been worse lately, especially the knee. Of course I am trying to minimize all meds, and would not want to simply just boost occasional pain-management meds to compensate if there is a chance the concerta may be aggravating it.
So - Has any one noticed increased joint, muscle, or general pain issues with concerta/ritalin ?
Any advice or info is great.
I am considering perhaps having the Dr consider adderal just to see if it makes a difference in regards to the pain.
Thanks!

Re: Joint Pain with Concerta

To help with joint pain, there is a supplement called Conquer HA. I know of people that are very happy with the results they have received. To learn more, their website is www.conquerha.com

Can you guys send me a free sample?

This request was brought to you by www.conquerhadvertising.com.

Here's a suggestion -

1. EXPLAIN WHY there's a link between ritalin and joint pain
2. EXPLAIN WHY hyaluronic acid will work
3. DON'T ADVERTISE

If you believe that conquerha has a better product than any other hyaluronic acid manufacturer -
then explain WHY with evidence.

The family of matrix components including glucosamine, chondroitin etc -
have been available in stores for the longest time.

is there any method of keeping this thread some place on site (rather than deletion) such that google will return a link to this thread if 'conquerha' is used as 'search term' ?
just in case it helps anybody out who tries to check out posts on other fora advertising their product.

With any luck we'll be able to reduce their sales and force them out of business -
shouldn't be so hard in this economic climate.

Funnily enough -
have just been here following up on an ADDF link -

No doubt, there are old-school marketers who will talk about their right to email or interrupt because it's not against the law, or perhaps it generates short-term sales. The thing is, consumers now have rights too. The right to ignore, to distrust and to choose someone else when it comes time to spend money.
Looks like the forum is going to go the same way as email.

Luckily though we're getting much better at discerning quality -

'conquerha.com' smacks of a poor attempt by some guy who's purchased a bagload of old hyaluronic acid for $5 and wishes to sell it on for $5,000.

Re: Joint Pain with Concerta

Here's a link to conquerha alongside 20 other products which states that joint pain relief does not result.

... and reviewed and distilled the most current scientific research in order to assess joint products currently marketed. The outcome indicates that many products marketed lack the key ingredients necessary to even positively improve joint function.

CONQUER HA
NO
JOINT RELIEF
The people who would buy from companies such as 'WillyWonquer.duh' -
need to be helped until that point when they themselves are able to make rational choices for themselves.

Not knowing anything about this particular drug. Is it possible that stimulation to the nervous system can cause cramps and therefore 'joint pain'? It seems logical to me, but feel free to correct me.

Do you mean making it 'sticky' on site? If not, then google will continue to troll ADDF and return this page for the foreseeable future.
