Let me know how it works for you.

It's been over a week since I took the medication, so far there hasn't been a BIG improvement because I'm still shedding a lot. Someone said it can take around 3 months for the shedding to stop IF it was medication induced. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it stops sooner than 3 months. I was thinking too, that maybe this HL could be caused from some stress that's been going on in my life for the past couple of months. First, a close friend of mine is moving away (she lived next door), well, she left today . Second, another close friend of mine is getting a divorce from her husband. This was fast and sudden, and quite a shock to me because I was friends with them both! So I don't know if this is contributing to the HL or not.
