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

Jules - good luck with Dr Harries today. I will be thinking of you.
Barbara - welcome to the group. XXX
I don't know how to, but I wouldn't mind skyping!
Celia- Its a shame I don't live nearer, I would love to meet up! Can you tell me what is Protopic and why you have to wash your hair every day?
I asked my GP today to refer me to Dr Harries at Salford, she said yes, so I am waiting for my date. I am going to fly to Manchester from Heathrow and then it is only 15 miles from the airport to the hospital so I can get a taxi. I hope the date comes through soon. I also asked about NHS providing wigs, she has not done this before and is writing to the surgical appliance dept of my local hospital to sort it out - I have already bought a few myself but I will take the NHS wigs and can use them for swimming and stuff like that if they are not very nice. This GP was very obliging, I was worried that I might have to really fight my corner to get referred but she agreed very easily, so anyone else in the UK that is thinking of asking for a referal to Dr Harris, I would say definately go for it.
I have been very lucky this week, I got to meet Celia for a coffee on Tuesday and on Monday evening when I attend an alopecia support group I met another lady with FFA. It was great to be able to talk to ladies that have the exact same condition as me and who understand what I am experiencing and Celia your brows look very natural they did a great job. xx
