    I'm with bigentires. It's kind of weird that you are the only person that shed like this out of 7 or 8 people...

    That said, you seem genuine.

    I'd suggest not live posting your experience like a twitter feed. I'm sure that follicept doesn't really appreciate it. You've pretty much axed anybody else's chances of pre-trailing by showing them it's a massive risk (when it shoudln't be)

    Not saying you shouldn't tell us, but maybe should have attempted to figure out between you and follicept first.

    That's cause for concern? I've shed 3x that when I was first experiencing hair loss. I could sit there and pluck a hundred hairs out in a given area.

    If I may suggest a second day of leg reaction on Sunday. Just because you didn't have the reaction the first day and better to make sure it is safe for you...What do you think?

    StayThick you mentioned you were off minoxidil and finasteride. How long is that ago?

    Assuming minoxidil worked for you, you are going to get hefty sheds trust me. It only a matter of time.

    You are btw courageous for stopping minoxidil & finasteride. Trust me that follicept will NEVER approach a treatment like minoxidil in terms of effectiveness.

    good luck

    Thanks Keki. You rock. Attached is the bathroom sink with the remains of the hair that shed that did not go down the drain. As I mentioned in my response prior. This picture was taken after a good amount hair was sticking to my hands (from gel), my pillow, and then AFTER I washed my scalp and had it drain. The hair you see is what stuck to the side walls. This is was sent me in a slight panic.

    Thanks Keki and thanks for saying my girl is a 10/10. Goes to show you that a full head of thick hair isn't required to land a smoke-show. My brother though, pisses me off he can pull a David Beckham and someone from the same gene pool can't...but I digress..I'm still better looking than him

    I said that you could have waited until things calmed down. Maybe in a few days you'll say you might exaggerated a little bit. I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt, these kind of reactions can affect the company badly. It's great to the community to know things 24/7, but you can only see the big picture in retrospect

    I don't even know if they are breaking any law if they give something to people that can have these sort of side effects. I honestly expected some ambiguos thing from all this, not good or bad
    I guess I reacted quickly because of how concerned I was. I still would not have hid this information from the forum or Devon and Dr. Hsu at Follicept. In fact, they have encouraged me throughout to post my honest, personal experience on this forum so that's what I planned to do.

    Keki, thanks for informing me on this. The woman is my girlfriend, the baby is my newborn niece, the gentleman my younger brother who got fortunate from a hair standpoint. Thanks for the kind words.

    I'll need to find another way to upload these and yes I made everything private now. Thank you.
