Guest guest Posted July 14, 2004 Report Share Posted July 14, 2004 Hi Doug...dont think we have met..nice to meet you! I am a hairstylist who happens to have Stills. I do know that Nioxin does work for thinning or balding hair. As a matter of fact I recommend it often to my "hair deprived" clients. There is a start-up kit with all the neccesities to get started. It's not just shampoo. There is also treatments that you apply to your scalp regularly and conditioner. Try it and let me know. I think it will help. But not sure about how it works for the effects caused by side effects of medications. Carey NJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 14, 2004 Report Share Posted July 14, 2004 To all Stilligans with thinning hair, you might have your Dr. check for insulin resistance, I feel like my hairloss is in a large part from having that for so long before I became diabetic, it is can be a real problem for hair.

Guest guest Posted July 14, 2004 Report Share Posted July 14, 2004 Carey & all - Thanks for the info on Nioxin Shampoo - I'm going to give it a try and see if it helps before my hair gets too thin. I went for the cardiac ultrasound today and chest x-rays. Bob you were right - completely painless. Of course they don't give you any results and say it may be the beginning of next week before I get the results from my doc. I guess all I can do is wait and see. I want to thank everyone for the support. It's so great to feel like I'm not alone. Hugs Peggy Re: Nioxin Shampoo Hi Doug...dont think we have met..nice to meet you!
