Ohh joy!!!

What the bloody hell is happening to me???

Still waiting for results of bloods - pain hasn't got worse but then again, has only got a smidge better...gggrrrrr

Hair is falling out - been noticing it in the shower for a couple of weeks but now my hairdresser has confirmed that my hair is thinning, particularly at the front, and the texture has changed. She said it's all down to the anaesthetic I've had in 12 months (3 lots) and the meds - can take up to 6 months for it all to get out of your system! Zinc and other levels have been shot! She's recommended some specialist Redken products (shampoo / conditioner / vitamin tabs) which have produced great results with her other ill clients, so I'm giving them a go. Gutted really - I have been letting it grow for nearly two years now and it is just starting to take a nice shape, hey ho...

Nails are going the same way, peeling & splitting, already taking Multibionta, may need a nail supplement too!

Falling apart I am - me and Vic will look like baldicoot twins soon, haha :-)

Kelly, have you thought about seeing a nutritionist? I saw one here (£200) It was worth the cost as my skin has improved, I have much more energy and my digestive system is the best it has been in years. She made subtle changes to my diet and the times I eat food. eg, make myself a drink of drinking chocolate at 2pm with whole milk for the vitamin d, eat a small amount of protein at 3pm and eat small amounts of probiotic yogurt at 11am( which I do not like- but hey, it works!)
I have had 5 general anaesthetics since 7th November and it wrecks your body.

What a load of nonsense. If everyone who ever had an operation lost their hair, half the population would be bald! I think your hairdresser has a load of products she needs to get rid of

For the arrogant "Anonymous" bastard who left a comment below - I didn't say I had lost my hair, I said it was thinning. Try taking morphine based drugs and anti-inflamms yourself for nearly 5 years and undergoing numerous procedures and you might just have half an idea what I'm going through. If you've got nothing decent to say don't say anything at all and if you were any sort of person you would have left your name!!! It's people like you who give true sufferers a hard time.
