Retired for a couple of years, recently diagnosed with FFA and struggling to figure out what to do and when. And how do I give up all my hair products? Supposedly they do not contain "chemicals", but I don't want to experience any horrible side effects. Dr prescribed Clobetasol and Hydrocortisone for eyebrows

I received an email with your comments about biopsy. I can't find where the thread is on here.
I had a biopsy, but didn't want to have one, I thought that I would be left with a scar on my forehead once my hair receded further. I sat a cried through the whole procedure.
I don't think that the biopsy was necessary, it only confirmed what the doctor already diagnosed from the symptoms.
I have just found this lecture on You Tube, I haven't yet listened to all of it, but it is informative:
