I know I should be asking my doctor, but even though getting an appointment with a neurologist is free, it takes months where I live.

My problem is that I sometimes have severe pain in the stomach and abdomen. I have had acute Pancreatitis in the past and I fear it might become chronic (pancreas digesting itself).

Is this just a coincidence or does Methylphenidate damage my pancreas further?

Additional info:

• I was diagnosed with ADHD at age 6

• This is the first time I am taking medication

• Daily Dose is 30mg total (extended release 15mg and 15mg)

• I am not on any other medication
