Transplant anti-rejection medications. What's your advice?

My hair has experienced the same loss. My unusually thick individual hairs thinned and the number of hairs on my head crashed. I went from having too much hair for a ponytail holder to only needing the tiny kid stretchy plastic bands. I had a liver transplant and gastric sleeve done at the same time 26 months ago. My hair is not rebounding. I am not anemic.

@jeanene several of us have had the same problem. I was advised to take Biotin and I did for a few months. My hair is now thicker and softer than it ever was before.

Congrats on your successful surgery!!! I'm so glad you made it through everything ok, that's a big surgery. I met Scott the first patient to have the combo surgery like you did, I also met his surgeon who was so compassionate and brilliant. Isn't it great that they can do both procedures now. I'm sorry you've experienced hair loss after surgery, what do the docs say about it?
