Hello!I was wondering if anyone has been tested for food allergies to determine if a particular food is causing inflammation, which in turn could exacerbate FFA. I had the skin test a couple of years ago at an allergy clinic, and it came back…Continue

Hello All, I am venturing into new territory. It just dawned on me that a good experiment would be to try a medical grade CBD oil tincture on my hairline and see if it affects the redness. CBD is the nonpsychoactive part of marijuana that is being…Continue

Sounds an excellent idea Terry :o) x
Well done Terry ! I am thinking about this ! X
What is it called Debs
Thanks Debs! My hairstylist cut my hair shorter yesterday because of the hair loss. I think the scarves would work now. I'll give those a try first and maybe try a wig this winter. Carol I'm so glad your husband didn't even notice you had a wig on! I sweat horribly when i try to put makeup on. Doesn't matter what time it is. I wonder if this has anything to do with taking resveratrol. I'm trying to take so many new supplements now.
Brenda, I can see that the humidity where you live would make a wig very hot indeed, luckily in the UK our colder climate is a real Godsend if you wear 'hair'. I wear a silk scarf, a long thin shape wrapped round my head basically in the same place that a headband would go and tie it in a double knot in the front and then just tuck the 2 end in. In silk material it looks expensive and a fashion choice. I have several nice silk scarves I have bought to match different dresses/tops. If I use larger earrings than I normally wear and no other jewellery it looks good. The silk scarves cost about £15 in the UK at Accessorize shops, I expect you can get something similar in the US. Good luck with finding a solution. XX
that sounds just like me maddy. Sometimes I look as if I have run a marathon .my hair dripping wet. I will have to try taking turmeric to see if it makes a difference
I also get the head sweats really bad! It's always right around my hairline. Sometimes it actually drips. I get hot flashes too, but none of my friends ever get the hairline sweating. It must be connected to FFA. I am taking Turmeric too and have possibly also noticed a bit of a decrease in the hair sweats, but I can't be sure just yet.
My head and face sweat profusely too. But i also have hot flashes. I went through menopause about twenty years ago due to surgery. I blame the flashes on lupus. The head and face sweats on menopause. Don't know what the causes are. But definitely uncomfortable and embarrassing.
