Guest guest Posted March 24, 2004 Report Share Posted March 24, 2004 Dimonds how old are you? When I was in my early 30's I used to break out all the time with huge zits that scared me too. I had to finally see a derm and she gave me a script for retin a and doxycycline. These worked fabulous though at first the retin a peeeled my face and burned a bit. I think that it is a derivitive of vitamin a so pretty safe but maybe someone here will know something more bad about it. Anyhow it worked so well I never break out anymore EVER! i have not had a zit in 3 years. Of course I am 39 now so getting older that may have a part in it. I am sorry bout your hair. I cut mine, and I have been so pleased with it. It is growing in fast and thick. I guess mine was all related to those thyroid meds though. Hey I wanted to share that I have two friends at work that had the gastric bypass surgery, one has so far lost 75 pounds and now her hair is falling out, she says it is side effect of starving and not absorbing vitamins since her bypass. I wonder if your body is not absorbing correctly and that is your hairloss cure. Anyhow just a random thought. Hugs In , " dimonds68 " <XENA6881@a...> wrote: > Hey all.

Guest guest Posted March 24, 2004 Report Share Posted March 24, 2004 It was armour thyroid, but the real reason it caused hairloss is my Dr (who since retired) misread my labs, I was a touch hyper and she thought I was really hypo so she sent me into hyper land and I lost hair as a result for almost a year, it was a nightmare. I will always double check labs from now on!
