I quit oral minoxidil...

[Aurelius]

Gents,
I would need advice from those of you who have been using oral minoxidil for a long time and then suddenly stopped.

This has been my regimen for the past 5 years (with maintenance):
- Duta .5mg
- Minoxidil 5% twice daily
- Oral Minoxidil 5mg daily
- Oral spironolactone 25mg daily
- 1000mg sulfa daily

I made the mistake of stopping the oral minoxidil in April (lack of supply, and I thought it was not THAT important) and was only able to restart in mid-September. For a month and a half, horrible shedding, about 500 hairs a day, huge visual difference compared to a month ago.
Am I going to lose everything?
f*** I hate myself for this...
