The only appointments I have that are early are the initial consultations. I have my consultation with my new

Hello! I read about the conditions you are dealing with, and the very last one caught my eye! I, too, have alopecia areata. It showed up first when I had just started eighth grade, so very many years ago. I lost nearly all of my hair that school year, and it was pretty humiliating for a 13 yr. old girl, you know what I mean? I started receiving injections in my scalp from this really old woman doctor, who was the only doc to give me hope. My hair grew back, thankfully. But now, after menopause, I've noticed it thinning again, although I have no bald spots. Just shedding hair like crazy!

If you don't mind me asking, how have you dealt with your alopecia?
