my hair is falling out
I've been losing gobs of hair each day for the past few months. I know we're supposed to lose about 100 strands each day, but every time I take a shower, I have to clear the drain because hair clogs it. And this is in addition to strands falling out during the day. I've been in remission for almost a year and the only medication I'm on is Remicade. I take vitamins religiously. I've pretty much stopped brushing my hair except when I'm showering because I'm afraid of ending up bald.
Has anyone else had this problem? I'm an 18-year-old girl, so I'm pretty sure I'm not naturally "going bald."
