oh thats really cool about touring and everything!!! i loove rock, but when it comes to my personal playing i'm more into symphony's and orchestras ^.^ how much does accupuncture cost for you? sounds interesting...
Hi Drew! How's it going?!!!! Things are good here, just went on a vacation to laughlin, nevada! Had a good time, I wore my extensions the whole time! Everyone (we'll not everyone) tells me that you cant even tell I have it, so I dont need the extensions. I said, Oh I'm soory, do you know how it feels to be 1/2 bald, no? OK then! I feel more comfortable and more confident with a bunch of fake hair attatched to me, OK! LOL Your blogs are gooood!!! Good writer, see!? :)
Things are good for me -- because I deal with businesses every day, the nice thing is that I work the same schedule as most businesses; aka Monday-Friday with weekends and holidays off! It gives me the chance to travel a LOT more often than I did working nights in residential services, which is great!!! I'll be sure to have a grilled hot dog and hamburger for you!!!
I play for a club called Hampton & Richmond Borough. We play in the conference south league in the UK. It's semi pro level so nothing much to shout about really :-)
Yeah, I absolutely love it. I love being active and I love teaching about it..so it works out well. (Plus, my insurance keeps me covered on these wonderful doctor visits) I teach high school. What grades are you looking into?
Hey Drew! Yeah my doctor said something about a treatment like you mentioned...putting some kind of irritant on the scalp to draw attention from the hair...I dunno...I said I didn't want to do it. Frankly, I've always had very sensitive skin and that kind of treatment worries me. Plus I think it sounds like just temporarily fooling your body. Once you stop it, I would think your body would go right back to attacking your hair. So I dunno...I'll give this lotion thing a try and see what happens. I guess I'm having more of a negative attitude today than usual. Bah! I'm just tired of this. I'm sure tomorrow I'll feel better. ;o) Hope you enjoy your long weekend!
I like bald heads on guys anyways :) I have never ever seen my husband with hair before, and I don't want too. LOL! But I know when you shave your head, it will be a tuff day. Just so you know, girls think beenies are hot!!! :) We'll it is summer, hats are good too! Anyways, I got my extensions put in today, for some reason I coudn't put as much on as the person did it andit is all uneven :( But, I guess I'll get used to it, I'll have to do it everyday for some practice. Talk to you soon
I'm going to have to put the extensions in by myself today, Hopefully I can do it! Wish me luck, I'll have to be patient with my 3 kids bugging me while I do it!lol I hardly look at the back of my head, and I have to be looking at it when I put these in, and it is sooo bad. The right side of my head is no hair. Hopefully I wont loose more
Hi Drew - thanks for commenting my blog. Wow our situations sound very similar. I also had regrowth in just one spot from my first appointment. And with all the feedback I've gotten, I'm leaning towards stopping the injections as well. I will probably do it tomorrow depending on what the doctor says, but from there, I will probably stop it.
"You are right about every person being different, and the fact that I
treat holistically ... I'm so proud! I have taught you well! That
being said, in your case, without getting into too much detail, I
would say that I focused mainly on opening Du Mai, building the
kidneys and blood, and harmonizing the Kidney and Heart to settle the
shen."
I started back in August I believe. We're not really sure what worked, because I was doing both western and eastern routes...but I will email my acupuncturist to ask her about your areas/remedies question. One thing that we did, that she'd never done before, was something called the 5-star hammer. It's kind of painful, I'll warn you, but I was willing to do anything if my hair would possibly grow back. It's a little mallet with 5 needles on it, and she would do it across my entire scalp. She kept saying "this hurts me more than it hurts you!" :)
My aim is SaraDellEra if you ever want to talk. :)
I'll get back to you when my acupuncturist emails me back.
