RLT therapy or change in diet?

Hi! I was diagnosed with alopecia areata last september right before my son's (minor) surgery. The doctors said it was probably stress and that it would be "totally fine" after steroid injections... it wasn't fine. It spread to about the size of a ritz cracker, right on the crown of my head, then I got another one right next to it. They responded well to the treatments, but 2 more spots showed up, and again, I went to get steroid injections. They seem to work for me, which I honestly am thrilled about. I didn't realize how much I loved my hair until I started losing it.

The more I read on AA, the more I'm wondering if there's anything else I can do other than injections. Has anyone tried the RLT therapy? or a major change in diet? Everyone who DOESN'T have alopecia has an opinion on it, and it's really just making me feel worse!"eat healthier" "go paleo" "just shave your head ad buy a wig" "losing your hair isn't the worst thing that could happen-you COULD have cancer!!"

so.freaking.annoying.

Also- is there anyone else here that knows when a spot is going to show? I swear, I can almost feel them coming on!

Hi all,

I'm new to this site, have had this disease for about 6 months - 95% of head hair gone in about 3 weeks.

My reasons for writing here are I also bought the RLT therapy book 6 months ago, only it never got delivered - luckily I only paid for the book. I've written to the company about 7 times now including their Facebook page and they have not replied to any of my emails. They were very engaging up until they received my payment, then nothing....silence. So I can smell a rat.

As I'm in Australia and not familiar with internet scam governance in the USA, I was wondering if anyone could tell me who I should contact. Their website is still up and so they are clearly still open for business.

If anyone can email me the book too, that would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Rob

I can email it to you. I paid and only got half of the pills and could never find anyone again to refund me or send me the other half of the product and It took me forever to get the first bottle!!!! Makes me mad.

Hello again, Brittany. 

You sent me a copy of the RLT Therapy a year ago and for some reason I cannot find it in my file anymore.  Would you mind resending it at megmom72@gmail.com?  I plan to discuss this diet again with my daughter's nutritionist, she will turn 3 next month, and determine if we can adapt this now that she is older.  

Her hair still hasn't grown back, but her eczema which is an auto immune disorder,  is gone after we made some initial changes in her diet --- removed dairy, soy and egg --- since late last yr. 

Pls let me know.   Thank you very much.
