Default Ritalin extended release made my pcs symptoms come back

i was taking extended release Ritalin for a few months and my pcs symptoms came back. A month later I still have a really tight jaw from the Ritalin but some of my symptoms are improving. Is that normal for extended tease Ritalin to bring back some of my symptoms for this long? Thank you

There is no normal response to Ritalin when it comes to PCS. Some tolerate it. Some do not. Since it is a stimulant, it is easy to understand why it could cause mental fatigue and other symptoms.

Yeah. In July I was taking the extended release Ritalin almost that entire month. My symptoms got worse so i stopped Taking the medicine. It's been over a month now. Is that possible to still be feeling the effects from the Ritalin on my pcs? I feel like that's what's going on.
