Topic: RE: Hair Loss
Kim, Sorry for the late reply but I really don't know the answer to that question. I lost hair at about 3-4 months out for about 2 month. It really wasn't enough to notice other than when washing my hair. I have not lost any hair since then. Just try to continue to get in all your protein and good luck. Gail

Topic: Sinus Infection (YUK) and ORLANDO BOUND!!!
Happy Thursday all! Well, I finally went to the doctor yesterday and was diagnosed with a sinus infection. I had been a little puny since Sunday and things had gotten gradually worse. So now, I have my own little arsenal of drugs to take... I had forgotten how much I disliked antibiotics... Mike got in yesterday from CO and he seems to have one too. He'll be heading to the Dr. this afternoon. He looks like he's a lot worse off than I am. But with his sinuses...he's always had a lot of problems. I'm just hoping that it won't ruin his trip. We're heading out of town tomorrow. Mike has a conference in Orlando that he is presenting at...so while he's working, I'm going to be either relaxing by the pool, may go to WDW, or if they launch the shuttle next week, I'll drive over and check it out. We're both looking forward to breakfast on Sat. morning with Lindy, Dixie, and Teann. Then its on to Valdosta for the evening and on to Orlando the next morning. I'm taking my laptop so I'll still be around some. Hope everyone has a great weekend...I know for some its going to be very busy...will miss you guys! Please send positive thoughts our way for a safe and enjoyable trip and that we both feel a little better each day! Love you guys, Becky

Hey Gail....I know you are excited. It will be another few months before I can even think about moving into our new house. They have to build it first. It is suppose to be done in November. How big is your house? I don't remember. I am so excited for you!! Have fun this weekend... Love, Linda

Topic: Hair Loss
Does anybody know approx. WHEN (how many months post op) normally will my hair stop falling out? I've been on Biotin since before my surgery and honestly can't tell that it's helped any. I go back to Dr. Dewitt next month and will ask him then.....but usually when I ask he just grins (....ahhhh and WHAT a cute grin it is ) and says, "kim, you have so much hair, don't worry about it. It will stop.".... But ya'll I AM SERIOUSLY getting worried. I wash my hair about 3 times a week and each time there is enough hair to stop up the drain. Pam combs it out for me and another big wad of hair. I style it, blow dry it and another big wad comes out.....not to mention all the stragglers that I am CONSTANTLY picking off of my clothes/car seat/ furniture/ bathroom floor, etc. It's not really noticeable to anybody but me......but if it doesn't stop soon, it WILL be..........and I am VAIN I WILL BUY A WIG I'm also seriously considering cutting it all off to see if that will help any. What do you think? Love ya'll kim
