Hi @sueinmn 😊
You mentioned that you had metal poisoning. What is that and how did they confirm it?
I am curious if it's something like eating too much tuna salad and overloading on mercury?
Thank you for sharing!
Hi! I have seen 2 endocrinologists, two dermatologists and my primary care provider. They've done testing of all kinds and just end up saying labs are all good and it must just be something that happens. it is frustrating to watch yourself slowly lose hair. My Graves journey has been brutal. Have had orbital decompression and strabismus surgeries along with permanent double vision. I guess I shouldn't let the hair loss bother me, but it does. People make fun of you and it hurts.
