Hello ladies,
I haven't been on here for a while, but if anyone has read any of my previous posts you know that I have been experiencing shedding. I had a biopsy of my scalp done about 2 weeks ago, and the results came back positive for lupus. Now, I will be getting a second test with a rheumatologist to confirm the diagnosis. I researched online (yes I know you're not supposed to do that), and found out that false positives with lupus can be common. The only reason I think I don't have a false positive is because nothing else explains why I have 2 bald spots in my head. Is there anyone on this forum who has experienced hair loss with lupus, and how do you deal? I researched all kinds of other symptoms that I don't have, but I'm not sure if I should expect to eventually get them.
