    • Good Luck

      From hyderkat July 9

      woww! Tendancy to B-12 problems can be inherited (like ulcers or execzema or asthma tendancies). Do let me know if that turns out to be it. At least then you'll know and if you hate needles and have good ins. try Nascobal.

      From barlochan April 16

      I am quite honoured in your request. And I do accept. Haven't spoken to too many people about alopecia. I don't know if they are embarrased or not. Mine started about 16 yrs ago. Enough for me to notice it. Thinness on the top of my head. From there over the years it escalated. To now when I go out, I wear a wig. Always wearing a hat around the house. Will be fun to get to know you. Hugs Nancy

    • Close Degenerative Disc Disease

      I have DDD, as well as arthritis in C4 & C5. Was in a serious car accident a few years ago, and after 2 years of pain management treatment, still have no pain relief. The solution was to cauterize the nerves in my neck..which would grow back...No thanks! I live with the pain daily.

      Treatments

      Elavil Too Soon to Tell
    • Close Fibromyalgia

    • Open Migraine Headaches

    • Open Alopecia Areata

      My alopecia areata started when I was 30. I inherited it from my dad. After watching him struggle with many many different treatments to no avail. I decided not to fight it, but to let it run it 's course. I tried several different OTC things...after 10 years of wearing a wig, I finally found the secret that works for me! Minoxidil!!! I also take a super B complex vitamin daily, and purchase Nioxin cleanser and scalp therapy from a salon. Been 5 years with no regression!

      Treatments

      Rogaine Working / Worked
      I purchase the generic from Wal-mart. It's called Equate womens hair regrowth. I get 3 bottles for less money that 1 bottle of rogaine would cost. And, it does the exact same thing!
