Dysbiosis in gut caused by being born by C section. I just saw a discussion on TV where a doctor spoke about dysbiosis (this means your bacteria in your gut has the wrong type of bacteria and is harmful ) when you are born by C section, which I was back in 1963, you do t receive your mothers healthy gut bacteria during birth and this lasts a lifetime and is proven to cause obesity, Crohns etc.. Your immune system is affected. It just wonder his many of us with FFA were born by C section ?? This might just be a coincidence but since I was born by C section I wanted to ask the rest of you ladies.

Hello C

I would be interested to hear about medication that everyone thinks has or hasn’t worked. Also ideas and experiences on how to deal with the hair such as weaves, wigs etc; it would be good to get everyone’s thoughts.

Dear MJ,

I also take antihistamines every day and have had allergies all my life. No one has ever found out what causes them. On 3 occasions I have been in hospital and they tell me it Idiopathic anafelaxis- very frustrating. Maybe this would be something to discuss at the get together?

Dr Vera Price in the USA thinks FFA results from an environmental insult and is researching the role of dioxins. Dr Price is part if the CARF organisation and this info was passed to me from one of our group in the USA that has attended support group meetings with Dr Price. Research is happening into a trigger.

Hello Claire

Sorry for the late reply, had to take daughter to the eye clinic. I live in Suffolk near Bury St Edmunds.

Will look into the products mentioned. When I met Dr Chris he took a file of blood to check my iron and other vitamin levels. It will be interesting to see the results.

I use Superdrug's own brand Hair, Skin and Nails supplement. The ingredient list is identical to that for Perfectil which is far more expensive! Dr Harries said that any supplement should contain biotin, otherwise he didn't particularly recommend anything. I haven't noticed any change in my nails, but that's probably due to the perverse nature of FFA rather than extra vitamins.
I've had notification that the 1st steering group is to meet in the last week of April, with a telephone conference in March. I don't yet know what the agenda will be but may be asking for comments in the near future.
