Guest guest Posted November 25, 2010 Report Share Posted November 25, 2010 Hi Everyone, I was wondering if anyone else on the list has had this happen to them. I've always had a very thick head of hair. I'm in my late fifties, and have been on HIV drugs since 1994. The only time I ever had a drastic hair loss, was when I had a urinary tract infection that wouldn't go away for six months. I was on all kinds of antibiotics, and it finally cleared up. My hair then came back in thick again, but curly for quite awhile lol. Now I've been on a couple of different drugs for the past four months. The doctor finally took me off those horrible Fuzeon shots. I'm now on Prezista, Norvir, Truvada and Isentress. Plus I take Barraclude, Neurontin, BP pill, Water Pill, Synthroid, Valtrex, and sleeping medication. I also moved into a brand new apartment on the same property, but the water tastes kind of funky, and for months it was turning the toilet bowl and the sinks a reddish color that I had to scrub out. I can't think of what would be doing this to my hair, it's really freaking me out. I guess stressing about it makes it worse. Has anyone else gone through this? It's just weird because up to a few mo's ago, the barber commented on how thick my hair was, and now it seems like half the thickness. If anyone has some advice, it would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance! Charlie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
