Re: Swelling and hair loss

[Guest guest]

Hi Mania,

Sounds like you haven't hit the perfect mix or dose yet. My hair

came back to it's old thickness when I added cytomel to the mix.

Same goes for the dry skin/hair/eyes. You may also want to try

supplementing with omega3 tablets.

Hi Miana, sorry to hear that things are not much better for you yet.

I have been on medication for almost two years...and I still have

very dry hair and a lot of swelling at the ankles...

I still lose a considerable amount of hair, but not like it was

a year ago.

I have tried so many different things...it just seems so hard

to get back on track.

Have you noticed a change in the color of your hair?

Mine has gotten very grey.

Hi Sherry,

I've began taking Centrum, but I don't know if it will help

anything. I really don't know what to do suppliment wise. So taking

some extra omega3 might help the hair problem??

I really don't know where to begin on possibly finding my perfect

dose/mix yet. I know I need something. I shed more than my cat, and

can't seem to lose an ounce of weight.

Doesn't your endo or doctor try to help you out with it more? I

don't really know what to do with mine. He's the only one in my

area, and is a total you-know-what. I hear occasionally that I'm

supposed to be feeling better. Or something is suppposed to have

improved by now (I've been on the meds for close to two years now),

but I'm completely the opposite.

Nope, I haven't noticed any difference in my hair colour. Just that

it's alot thinner. I used to not be able to see my scalp hardly at

all, my hair was so thick and soft. Now I have really old hay for

hair. Nothing seems to give it any moisture. What I was told by my

dermatologist is ... if your hair is doing this - falling out,

intensely dry. It means there is a problem elsewhere in your system

that's not working right. Your body shuts off the " supply " to your

hair and is sending it to whatever is needing it elsewhere in your

body.

Blessings, Miana
