bet I have lost 1/4 or my hair. Coming out in clumps. Prednisone starting 3/20/26 and last dose 9/9/26 The clumps coming out seem to have lessened after tapering, though it still feels really thin. Mind you, last 6 weeks instead of lowering dose I took 6 days only, next week 5 days only and so on. So all of August was already taking way less pred. Hoping my hairdresser will tell me that little short fuzzies show the hair is growing back. Hope you get of this miracle/horrible drug soon

Thank you for sharing. I think little fuzzies are wonderful! New hair growth as far as I know. I've had them before right up along my forehead. I'll take any new hair! I hope your hairdresser does tell you that it's new growth. So glad you're already off Prednisone. May it stay that way for you. Blessings.
