My twin brother and I have had alopecia since we were 4 or 5. We were adopted and don't know the history ... he has universalis and I HAD areata...now...mine is completely universalis at this point - 45 and suddenly totally bald. It seems that my thyroid cancer and my going into menopause kicked it off...I'm now 53 and proud. Still wear my wig for business but otherwise, I'm hatgirl or bald girl..kind of fun being unique.
Welcome, Rebecca! You'll find wonderful support here on Alopecia World. Check out my profile page for photos, videos and blogs you might find helpful. I was where you are with alopecia in early 2008. Good luck,
Mary
