I'm guessing the hair loss is neuropathy because my scalp tingles, and it feels like bugs crawling around. Awful. The hair loss was one of the first problems I had, and the dermatologist was the first medical expert to suggest neuropathy. I thought I couldn't live without my hair. So hard. I really had beautiful hair. It defined me. Guess God taught me a lesson there. My preacher said to be,"You'd' be surprised what you can do." You are so sweet, Lori. I sure hope this new med gives you some relief from that pain. I'm so happy to hear the breast cancer surgery was a success. Thanks, Chris, I'm learning to be happy any day when I'm not in physical misery. Today is good. Iceblue,I agree that is weird about the tramadol. I sure hope you find what works. To all of you, I tried medical marijuana too, but it caused extreme anxiety. Admittedly, I didn't try all of the options. Maybe that would work for some of you.
