Re: Hair question Ellen (Pam) Help!!!

[Guest guest]

Ellen,

Your post is so timely for me. I need help please. Since having my

total knee replacement in Aug, then the knee manipulation in October

and thennnnn the most marvelous DS in November...I look like the

curse of the mummy. My skin is dry and peeling...even with a heavy

duty moisturize and my hair is limp and lifeless. Being stressed and

thin to begin with, I don't want to lose any more hair.

Could you please tell me where I might find this Nioxin, haven't seen

it, and what brands and amounts of zinc and folic acid are you taking

please! I hate to impose, but if I am this flakey this soon, it can

only go downhill! Thanks in advance for letting me impose.

Hugs,

Theresa

P.S. I know a big part of this is that I must figure out a way to

increase my liquid intake. Do you know if there are limits on the

zinc and folic in terms of toxicity and also, I have heard zinc gives

you horrible gas, something I need no added help with...snicker!
