A Second Comment:  WOW, I have been dealing with extreme hair loss for the last 3 years. I have a third of my hair. thyroid tests etc come back fine. Looked this up on a hunch. And see all these! I hope not too much of the hair loss is permanent but I am afraid that it is. Stopping nighttime benedryl immediately.
