Yay you, six months is a great milestone. I'm sorry to hear you are experiencing side effect, it happens to the best of us. I lost a lot of hair after my transplant (thankfully I started out with a lot) my docs said some of it was just my body experiencing trauma from being sick and the shock to my system from the surgery. I eventually was put on Vitron C which is a heavy dose of Iron with Vitamin C for added absorption to get my hemoglobin (iron levels) back in the "normal" range. Not sure what the trick was but eventually things settled down. Don't hesitate to ask your Docs and Nurses for help. I also found out during this time that hair loss is best addressed by dermatologists and the sooner the better. Hope this helps, Happy 6 month Kidney-versary.
