My hair is pretty thick. I'm about 4.5 months post op. when I started seeing more in my hands and bathroom sink' date=' I cut my hair short. To me it was a lot. But, we had a patient that had surgery the same time that I did ( she had a partial colectomy). The day I noticed more hair in my hands, she came in with a complaint of Hair loss. She pulled out a gallon size ziplock full of hair that she brushed out that morning. She had large bald spots. The doc told her and me, it's the stress of major surgery. Nothing will slow it or prevent it. I'm thankful that I'm not shedding like that.[/quote']

Omg really.....oh no.....well that would make me stress even more i would be bald

If I shave my head, I can brag that NONE of my hair fell out, right? AND, it will be a bigger novelty to gossip about than my sleeve!

.....hey..... I'm onto something ....

My hair stylist noticed the Hair loss last weekend when I got my hair done. I noticed the week before, but wanted her to see it to make sure I wasn't just freaking out for no reason. She noticed and I didn't have to call her attention to it.

Apparently, she thinks it isn't noticeable but since she's been doing my hair for almost 12 years, it is obvious to her. I am about 3 months post op. I hope it ends soon. I get all my Vitamins, Protein...it just sucks!

Most people lose some hair. Mine started around 5-6 months out and lasted maybe 2-3 months. It was never bad enough to need a wig or anything. Took Vitamins and hair/skin/nail supplements, but nothing but time made it stop.

My hair is thinning at the top 7.5 weeks out. Today I'm in a 12/14 top 16/18 pant great! I was a 3x but my arms are still big.

Me too! I wasn't expecting it to happen so soon! Bummed, but happy about the 55lbs I've lost since pre-op.
