First time I started loosing my hair was about 5 years ago and withing a few months, it all grew back. Started loosing it again after a very stressful event. Have lost more than 1/2 of my hair and am now trying to decide my next move in terms of how bald will I let myself get before shaving it all off and getting a freedom wig. I have been diagnosed with CTE, but I can't help but think it's also some AA mixed in. My biopsy was "normal" while a 2nd opinion hairpull revealed my TE was now CTE. Navigating this within the medical community can be so exhausting!!!
