I live in NYC and I went to a Dr Ash. He takes a holistic approach, using natural supplements as much as possible. He did the gastrogram. He feels that most of our health problems are related to the GI tract. SInce I also had IBS, he focused on that. He isn't a hair loss expert, but he did find other health issues that he felt could be contributing to my hair loss. He had me on the candida diet for a while too, suspecting a candida problem. There is no definitive test for candida but based on my symptoms, he felt I should try it. It is not easy though, very restrictive. He does not take health insurance, as most of the holisitc dr's do not. I have to say, he was helpful with diagnosing my health issues, but the vitamins and hebal supplements weren't enough to cure my adrenals, they were so bad. I had to take cortisol and cytomel. Dr Ash does tend to push his vitamins and supplements, which are very costly. Still, he was more helpful than my previous doctors. You will find that mainstream doctors won't offer much help with adrenal fatigue, or candida either. I am sure if you mention adrenal fatigue, they won't take you seriously (just as they don't take hair loss seriously) When I read about adrenal fatigue, I realized I had so many of the symptoms that it was obvious I had to have it. There is a good book, "Adrenal Fatigue, the 21st Century Stress Syndrome" written by Dr. James Wilson. It has a lot of helpful information, anyone who thinks they have adrenal problems should read it.
