Re: kerzyguy's stoty - (updated jan 7th 2008)
ok i got an email back from rassman tonight. he replied about the lamisil and said it can cause diffuse thinning in the hair, now ive been taking it since november, it seems to be what it may be from, especially since ive been applying it to my crown area. and advised me to go see a derm and get my scalp mapped for miniturization just to be sure.
"Lamisil is often used in the treatment of fungal diseases of the skin, such as ringworm (when impacting the scalp it is called Tinea Capitis which you have told me you had). These infections often cause hair loss and if you use Lamisil for treatment of the primary cause of the hair loss (Tinea Capitis) then it is easy to come to the conclusion that it is the drug causing the thinning. You should take medications as prescribed by your doctor. There is no shortcut to treating a fungal infection (ringworm). If you don’t take the medication as directed, your ringworm may get worse. If you can, get you hair mapped out for miniaturization just to rule out male pattern baldness if thats the case."
well thats a little reassuring, and guys i sincerly apologize for being annoying, i was just really scared, thanks for putting up with me, kudos for jayman and ragin for your patience.
