Guest guest Posted November 11, 2006 Report Share Posted November 11, 2006 Other then being tired this is one of the first signs of something wrong. My HAIR has not only gotten thin from falling out, the actual hairs are thinner then they use to be. I have been using Nioxen for about 3 months and it hasn't seemed to help me, that's why I started thinking that there was something else causing it. I'm starting to worry about my ANA Test, I had it drawn on Tuesday and as of yesterday they still hadn't gotten it back. Does anyone know how long this test takes? I'm starting to worry that it taking so long means something. They are testing me for lupus, there where only a few things on my CBC that were questionable, like low platelet count and low RBC count, and a high Chloride count, the others where all boarder line high or low.

Guest guest Posted November 12, 2006 Report Share Posted November 12, 2006 I had been on Arava in the past, and lost gobs of hair. Got off it quick. Do you still take it? Kathy [ ] Sierra's hair report I want to share the news that my hair has completely STOPPED shedding. What a relief after some scary weeks of watching the process which I now believe was an Arava side effect. Yesterday I went to the salon and got a short haircut, as my previous style looked wispy from the thinning. I bounced out of there with thick-feeling hair again. When I shampoo I check my hands to see how much hair might be webbed between my fingers, and it's...none! I feel like celebrating--I just had to tell someone!
