- About Me:
- For years I told doctors of my symptoms fulling exptecting to be diagnosed with a thyroid condition due to having 3 sisters and my mother with the same. After 15 years of suffering and then demanding (yes, I finally got a physicians assistant to refer me), I was referred to an endocronologist that stated I had Hashimotos! I began taking armour but when that became difficult to get we switched over to Synthroid. At the age of 39, I developed alopecia areata and have been "chasing" spots ever since. Some get rather large. I have steriod injections that seem to slow the spot down somewhat! But both diseases do take their toll on one!

Thank you for the info and I will keep you updated. And yes I love this sight. It is the only thing that gets me through the day!!
Hi. I also have alopecia areata. I am only three weeks into it and have lost so much hair I had to go get a wig. Last week I saw an endocronologist and was also diagnosed with Hashimotos.My thyroid antibodies were sky high but my TSH/T4 is normal so he is choosing not to treat at this time. What are your thoughts about that as I have read online that you should treat with low dose synthroid as it will slow the disease proecess?
Hi and thanks hope you can come to the chat room with the rest of the group and catch up
Hey You.... just to letcha know, I've been real careful since you said it was risky having you as a pal - but nothing's happened yet, apart from my front door handle falling of the other day. Was that you? Or will it be much, much worse???? Eeeek! :)
