The doctors did a biopsy and said no scarring and stayed I have female pattern boldness however I refused to accept this as the hair thinning has only occurred when the scalp pain is. I have had blood work done and I’m trying to see if CBD with high level of thc will help plus change my diet. I will not lose my hair and wants the inflammation is dealt with I know my hair grow back ut western doctors don’t aim to look at the root cause they aim to just treat the symptoms.

Oh my goodness- yes- I have the burning tongue, face and eyes along with the scalp What IS this?!

Thank you Wiggy- I’ve stopped vitamins and fish oil and using baby shampoo. Hope this stops the burning- I can live with the itch and hair loss but the burning- even my face and eyes!

I have heard that also about Vit A – also, I learned my multi’s Niacin is in the toxic level! I am 68 and have always had an itchy scalp/ in the last year it has progressed to burning and hair loss- even my face burns. I immediately stopped all vitamins and supplements as many of these cause itching in the body. I use only baby shampoo, Dove and unscented lotions. This is a horrible condition, but we have each other- You’re not alone.

On a side note my husband is a chemist and told me flax seed has cyanide in so In would put that in any veggies or find a compay that spends money to not include that

Are you taking low dose iron 28mg and split in half, or zinc glucoginate 50mg ? Or what about auto immune disease do you have any.. how would you rate your stress everyday? Do you find yourself dwelling or have panic attacks.. are you anxiety meds like Xanax or lorazepam? The reason I ask is because this drug will make you panic more because it’s just a bandaid till you fix it yourself in your mind and body. Drug are only good for a certain time in our bodies (I’m sure you knows this) the. We are feel this emotions ten fold. And now our adrenals are feeling the flight or fight with even simple tasks. When adrenals start going haywire even the vitamins will and not absorb right. Losing hair when your a women is beyond detrimental, I speak from experience and every doc looks at you like you’re crazy and family start too because this one thing no one can help you.. I have learned we have to help ourselves and ask for certain blood work etc, you also need people that have experienced the hair loss and know your pain and struggle .. say it was your liver, but the doc feels those levels are within normal range for him. You feel it’s not, so cleansing your liver is important so the toxins are coming out of the pores in your scalp which will cause your hair to fall out fast.. or the fight or flight that just release cortisol and does it so often that it procedures too much and hair loss again.. and when you take cortisol your body stops producing it naturally so you have to taper down, those are no joke, I went through hell with answers is what we all want and need but these days docs just don’t know shit and aren’t understanding, finding a new doc is a miracle., I either keep going or read in this group some of the stuff the ladies tried and it worked or didn’t. But they are honey. Email me if you need anything or want to chat about the hair loss don’t let the hope fade girl, you got this.. smile don’t let the brain stress

Don’t take prednisone, it will be a life saver at first and then after a month you get all the wonderful side effect like hair loss to the extreme. I’ve been on and off it for years and finally said no thanks after I lost 2 Inches of height and have a small lump on the back of my neck.. look Into doxipen 10mg.. I posted about it above..

Hey Victoria, it def is stress induced. I have had every test run and seen every doctor imaginable. Mine started when my ptsd started from the ex who tries to strangle me. Every thought that has entered my mind since then, even if it’s small, my body reacts big time. It could be one simple stressor you experience and bam your adrenals just can’t do it anymore. You think your not stressed about kids and home and work, but you are, imagine the stress your body feels over this hair issue. Think about over your lifetime, it all adds up and puts your body in flight or fight which triggers your adrenals to either release cortisol or adrenalin, both of those after prolonged stress in your mind and body will cause your scalp to burn and hairs to fall out. You are right those old fashioned blue ice packs work great because it cools the scalp and gets your hand moving it around to the sore spots and before you know you you aren’t stressing.. vitamins? Too little zinc, iron, vitamin E and B deficiency’s all just off a little can trigger TE and out comes the hair. It’s awful and after all this and all the results and no answers I promise you this is it. Stress can kill you, of course we can shock or organs and hormones will release chemicals that shock our system.. my burning scalp come with me ticking and rubbing the area, therefor I stress the hair root more. A Vicious cycle too because once you’re in that burning scalp phase, the fight or flight like I mentioned above is always around. I should also note I have lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, hypothyroidism, and while these do carry hair loss, I make sure to keep them at bay. Fight or flight can also bring out auto immune disease more because of the level or stress, a big crappy cycle.. I hope this helps anyone that reads it.. I do take doxipen 10 mg, but I open the capsule and take a quarter of it every night under my tongue to help control that substance P that can help the hair more. This drug saved my life in a way.. now does anyone else have crawling skin at night that feels like bugs? I have had this for 7 years and all the docs look at me like I’m an addict, It happens like clockwork if I stress at the same time every night, or on windy days it comes out more. I often wonder if the two go hand in hand and my liver isn’t doing good because of all the stress etc. The liver can release histamine to trigger both.. any of you want to compre things that have helped or vent to me, I’m here it’s a hard struggle but I promise you there are things to help Manage it. mindiferrari @ yahoo
