Anyone? Like I said I know the hairline isn't bad, but the thinning on top is very. Put me under any light and you can see lines of scalp. I have to make my hair go \ or / in direction because a straight lay from front to back will make the scalp lines much more visible.

Doesn't really look like typical MPB. The place you're mainly thinning at is usually the last place to go ontop. You sure it's not just the meds?
Possible though ofcourse. Some people just have weird patterns.
Ask a doctor.

I disagree, for many men (like me), thinning starts on top, and the hairline goes. Do you have a strong family history?

Nope, everyone has full heads of hair. Cousins, uncles, grandpas, father, etc... In fact the baldest person I know is my mother who has severe thinning, but she is also 60.

I'm fairly certain it's MPB as well. I'm a diffuse thinner myself and with me it started at the middle sides and worked itself towards the center. I only made the discovery as well during the summer when I suddenly noticed my head was burned and I could see my scalp below the thick hairs on top.

Yours also reminds me of Exodus's hairloss.
Has it been a gradual progression btw where you didn't actually noticed hairs falling out but did notice the hair becoming thinner when combing it, or has your hair been falling out in plucks in a short period? The first one probably means you're unlucky.^^

It is a bit thin, but the scalp also looks inflamed. Could def. be the medication. I think there is a tendency to dismiss all hairloss in males as MPB. Worth a trip to the doc.
FYI - my 36 yo cousin also has Crohn's and he just started on meds about 6 months ago. He has since developed a bald patch just behind the front-center hairline. Would def. look into this.

Your medication can certainly be the culprit. It happens often especially if you're taking steroids for your condition.

No, you have a full head of hair. Simple as that.
