Does anyone know of any studies, experiences, or reports of people with ADHD, on methylphenidate, using cannabis? I found http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25175495 but it doesn't tell me over much besides the subjective effects in the moment of taking both together.

I've got chronic pain so I want the benefits of cannabis, but I don't know how the two interact.

For dose reference, it's 36mg in the morning and then 18mg later on, extended release methylphenidate. So the drug is past its peak after 6-8 hours (about 7-9 pm)
 
the stimulating effects of THC can cause unwanted side effects in combination with methylphenidate, especially without tolerance to weed.

even after the peak of the MPH it'll probably bring back some jitters and anxiety.
