[QUOTE="LittleDudesMom, post: 38045, member: 805"] I am so, so, so worried about easy child. Just in the last ten days she has begun to loose large amounts of hair. She has little circular bald spots. So far, they are all covered by existing hair but it is alarming to lift the hair and see them. We have an appointment with a dermodoc on thursday am, but I researched on the net before making an appointment. I used a flow chart type dxtic with questions and pictures - but I kinda felt that's what is was. I am so worried that she will loose all her hair. She's 16, her hair is such a big part of her style. I can tell she is really worried to. I just want to hug her tight. She sent me a text message from school today with alittle unhappy face and a message that read "I'm going bald". I just wanted to cry. I told her not to assume anything yet and keep her beautiful smile. Then I wanted to cry again when the first two dermodocs told me it would be summer before a new patient could get in [img]:grrr:[/img]. Finally, the third dermodoc's office really listened to me and asked questions, spoke with the doctor, then called me back and said the doctor would fit her in on thursday morning. Just wanted to know if anyone has experienced this problem or known someone who has been through it. Apparently there are medical techniques that can help stimulate growth in some cases, but there is no cure and no real known cause. Could grow back, could not. Could all fall out, or stop where it is now. Thanks, Sharon [/QUOTE]
