Lichen Planopilaris...newly diagnosed

My name is Nancy. I was diagnosed with LPP about a year ago, but it started 14 years ago. My scalp was on fire and lots of hair loss. Different doctors I saw could not help, but one told me to pay attention and I did. I found out that I had liquid behind my ears. Urgent care asked if I had any allergies. So I asked Google if allergies could caused hair scarring. To my surprise the answer was not allergies but uncontrolled histamine levels. The article was the best: the article said to lower your histamine levels with El Glutamine, a histamine lowering probiotic so some raise your histamine level— I used one made by Schiff. I noticed the itching and burning would stop, but when I ate it would itch and burn again. I began researching and found out that when histamine levels surpasses your DAO and is not lowered, it attacks your body. I began lowering my histamine to stop the burning. I realized that going on a healthy diet eating tons of spinach wraps daily, nuts, I had raised my histamine to high levels which is auto immune attacks. I have not cured it and still have the burning, itching scalp when I eat foods like chips. I’m trying not to make this post very long so many sea food is histamine high—samon is safe for me. Beware of smelling plants which can raise histamine. I am trying to cure myself, but lowering histamine back to normal levels, I read, is very hard. I have scaring above my ears and on one side of my temple.

So EL histamine by Schiff. I can't seem to find that? I may be doing the same thing. Eating all kinds of greens, nuts, etc. I would do anything to get this LPP under control. Thanks.
