Graves disease: What can I do about hair loss?

I suffer from thyroid conditions, I had my thyroid chemically removed 30 years ago. If I forget to take my thyroid pill, and my thyroid levels suffer, so does my hair, I suffer hair loss. I've been taking a levothyroxine pill for 30 years now, I eligously take it now that I'cve had these issues. I would have never wished this curse on me or anybody else when I swallowed that radioactive iodine pill so many years ago.

I fully understand. I had I-131 in 1979. I recently have had issues with regulation of my thyroid levels. My primary has fiddled with my medication and created a mess. Normal T3 T4, but slightly lower TSH. I feel great. When she lowered my medication I had the weight gain, hair loss, constantly cold and exhausted. I really should invest in seeing and endocrinologist. Of course at 74 no one takes you seriously.
