ADHD (Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder)
- First symptom: Jun 1, 2006
- Diagnosis: Oct 1, 2007
life well lived updated the condition ADHD (Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder) May 02, 2013

I attribute my ADD to my MS. Medication (Adderall) has also had the added beneficial side effect of increased energy which has helped to offset some of the lethargy brought on by MS.
