It's going everywhere! Since I posted this topic, I'm now missing about 50% of my leg hair, most of my arm hair and a lot of the little fine hairs on my back and shoulders. Same with all the tiny hairs in my ears. THAT part was awful. The insides of my ears itched like mad for about a week straight. I'm surprised I didn't end up with a punctured ear drum after all the q-tips I was using to scratch in there. Ha! The alopecia seems to have left my head hair alone for now, all my bald patches are…
