I Lost Almost All of My Hair After a Heart Attack!

I had a heart attack a few months ago, followed by a huge amount of hair loss. I am on warfarin, very healthy now, but almost no hair. I also have a burning and itchy scalp. help! I am a woman 71 years young

Hair loss can be traumatic, but at least you survived a heart attack! Following a major stress (like a heart attack), hair loss may happen, but if it is not a genetic acceleration of a predetermined balding pattern, it may reverse after a year.

It should also be noted that hair loss is a known side effect of warfarin.
