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

Pam, Thank you for posting the link to the CARF newsletter. It contains some really good information about controlling inflammation. I was pleased to see that some of the products (tea tree oil), supplements (turmeric & ginger), and foods (olive oil, green tea) that I've found helpful were mentioned. There's also some good stuff in there about cosmetic options. Thanks for sharing.
Thankyou Celia for making it such a lovely day. I've just got back from a meal with the family to celebrate Jamie's birthday. I had a lovely time and it was so nice to meet you all. I've shown my family the pictures of us today and they all agree there is no way that any one looking at us would think we had a problem with our hair! Thankyou again Celia you are a special lady.
It was lovely to see you all. We shall get through this little problem by being positive - sorry I wasn't soooooooo positive all day. You all looked great - we shall do this again in the Autumn - and I would love it if you were all able to come here again - Heidi - I think yours was the longest journey - or - the most time consuming - but thank you all for making a huge effort to get together. Liz - sorry not to see you today but we hope to meet up soon ! Jules - need the cake recipe please ! Martyn loves it........ In order to use the e mail here you need to invite me as a friend. Otherwise I think most of you have my Hotmail. xx
Celia, thanks a million for your hospitality and a great get together today. It was lovely to meet up with you again and have the chance to meet some of the other ladies from the UK.
Thanks Robyn for your good news. I think it is a good ideas as well to not let FFA take over our lives. Furthermore, I think trying not to stress too much over it (and other things) is important too. I am a very type A personality so it is hard for me sometimes to let the little things go. But I find that if I can roll with the punches, I don't get the burny, itchy feelings on my scalp so much. Plus, I try to remember that other people have medical conditions a lot worse than this. So I try to do a lot of positive thinking along the way. It can't hurt at least.
