Guest guest Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 How bad is it falling out, Sue? Mine goes through stages - sometimes I lose very large clumps, and body hair wont grow. Then it all comes back just fine. Ive been gray since I was 14, so Loreal takes care of that for me ;P There is also an autoimmune condition that causes varying degrees of hair loss.  ~Keilia~ www.mdjunction.com " Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage.

Guest guest Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 It's not that bad, I've just noticed it coming out more than usual. Just checking to see if I had more of it to look forward to. I'm fortunate that I'm blond, so the grey coming in looks like highlights. Darnit, I'm getting a new rash on back and I'm out of Benadryl. Oh well. I see the Oncologist on Tuesday to see what the weird stuff is from my bone marrow tests. I lost the word I was actually looking for there. That seems to happen all the time. I think either the meds or the Still's causes Drain Bamage! LOL. My hands are locking up right now, so much for typing anymore. I hope you are doing well. hair loss Hi Everyone, Since I'm new to this Still's stuff and all, is hair loss part of it? My hair is falling out and on top of that it's growing back grey!

Guest guest Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 Hi , I do lose extra hair when I'm ill, have had a trauma or have been on certain arthritis medications. I don't think it's just particular to the Still's disease though. Best of luck, hair loss Hi Everyone, Since I'm new to this Still's stuff and all, is hair loss part of it?

Guest guest Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 Hi When I first had my high fevers and was in the hospital for 14 days I noticed the next couple of weeks my hair was coming out in large amounts and then about 2 weeks after that my tub would not drain and my husband had to take out a large hair clog and then it did not happen again once more a couple weeks after that. My doctor felt it was from the 2 weeks of high fevers and she said she could not think of any other reason for it and I never could find anything on the internet.

Guest guest Posted January 17, 2010 Report Share Posted January 17, 2010 , If you are taking MTX your hair will fall out some, some people more than others. I was joking the other day that I have not had to shave my legs in a couple of months. Also if you are on Rituxan or Cytoxan your hair will come out. MTX is a old chemotherapy drug, we don't take it in the high doses like they give for cancer but we still get some of the side effects. Steroids can cause some hair loss also. As far as your brain goes, we just call it " brain fog " around my house. Take care, ________________________________ .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 17, 2010 Report Share Posted January 17, 2010 What's MTX? I'm not sure if I'm on that or not. I definitely get the " fog.

Guest guest Posted January 17, 2010 Report Share Posted January 17, 2010 Hi I thought the same thing I was devastated I was losing all of my hair on top of everything else. My mom is a beautician and she said she notices when people are under a lot of stress that they lose a lot of hair and with this illness how can we not be affected by stress especially a new diagnosis. My mom loses her hair when her Thyroid is off also but I was tested negative for thyroid problems so I know for me it was not that. I did start taking vitamins but after that first month or so my hair stopped falling out in large amounts and it never happened again.

Guest guest Posted January 20, 2010 Report Share Posted January 20, 2010 Hi I know you;ve had a few replies to your question about your hair. I started on MTX almost 9 yrs ago and my hair suddenly went from being very thick-to very thin and whispy. I used to get upset on looking down and seeing it when I got out of the shower. I can say, for me it did improve. It has got a bit thicker again, but not as thick as it used to be. Perhaps our bodies get used to the drugs I dont know how it works. Mine was already going grey- so I cant comment on that side of it-except to say I always have a hair colour handy in the house. Hope things improve for you too, its all about learning Love Joan hair loss Hi Everyone, Since I'm new to this Still's stuff and all, is hair loss part of it?
