    Hi Dazza, jeez you've got a good Dr! she got your blood's done for you? Did you ask for them, or did GP suggest them? I'm not even sure which tests id need, dont think my GP would even know either.. Last time i asked him about Fin, he looked a bit puzzled and said go for it, every drug has sides and shrugged his shoulders.

    You're getting one hell of a good deal there!

    Hi Dazza, what blood values did you have checked? I ordered my fin off ukfinasteride - it works out to about £10 a month so cant really complain - I am still contemplating taking my fin, would prefer to have a blood test done prior to popping my first pill.

    Trust me, I went through about 4 doctors before I found her ( have a new doctor now tho as I have just currently bought my first place and moved to a new area ) one of my original doctors told me I was fine and I should eat more melon. He didn't last long. I called up all the local GP practices and asked if they had a in house dermatologist. Finally found one, signed up and booked in with her

    She literally did everything. She understood and suggested we rule out everything first that could be making my hair fall out. We tested everything from thyroids to iron. The amount of blood they pumped out was crazy. Got the results back and she confirmed it was MPB.

    Here's the awesome bit, she went out of her way you get me generic fin. She suggested it. Her advice taking the pill was, everybody's body is different. Do not go into taking this treatment with a mindset of "I'm going to get side" as I'd be doing myself more harm then good. Been on fin for a year now, no sides at all.

    My advice find a new GP with a in house dermatologist. Make them work for you. Don't settle for there idleness.

    I can't exactly remember what tests I got tho it was pretty much everything to do with hairloss. She was a GP/dermatologist specialist so I got the works. I get my fin stupidly cheap. I was originally going to get propecia and spend over £200 a year, now I spend under a £10.

    My advice bud, take the pill with a clear head. You take it while thinking something bad is gonna happen your only gonna make it worse for you. I took the pill thinking it was just a vitamin tablet and didn't think twice about it. Not had one side at all.

    Also call up your local GPs, find a GP who has a in house dermatologist. Ask for tests. Took me awhile and a few doctors tho there are good ounces out there. Also good luck with fin. You will be fine!!
