Does anyone else suffer from hair loss?

I have been losing my hair for ages now - every time I brush my hair there are lots of hair in the brush - even when I run my fingers through my hair I always end up with lots of hair. It's as though I am casting! Anyone else have this?

Lost all my hair aged 12 (now 50). which I believe was the start of all my problems. Over the following 38 years my list of diagnoses has grown ever longer. I also believe this is auto immune problem, aggravated by stress and emotional distress. This does not mean you will lose all your hair, and if by chance you did does not mean will never grow back because this is quite rare and I am "just unlucky" (lol), There is no cure or treatment because the cause or mechanism behind this condition is still not understood. The best I could recommend is to take care, be kind to yourself, try to keep to healthy diet with lots of iron/b12, and last but not least to develope a warped sense of humour which can be a life saviour. It would be nice I think @ times if we could stop time and wait for medical science to catch up!!

I have had problems with my hair, whether due to fibro or not I don't know. My hair was breaking off as opposed to falling out, and I know use a shampoo soap bar and a leave in conditioner from Lush. They were originally designed for afrocarribian hair which apparently breaks off at a certain length. My hair has been much better since converting.
