4 year old with alopecia, flare up after flu shot

Has anyone ever experienced a flare up after a vaccine? My 4 year old has not had any flare ups in over a year and her hair is starting to look somewhat normal until tonight I noticed alot of thinning on the sides (that's where she usually loses it first). The only thing is, she just had her flu shot. Do you think they could be related or is it just coincidence?

Related... I lost all of my hair after the flu vaccine. Do not think it is a coincidence at all. Can you find out what company or brand it is? I'll see if it is the same as mine. Regardless, I think there is something to be said for avoiding vaccines if you have any autoimmune condition because it typically makes the problem much worse.

Yes. I agree it may be related to flu vaccine. You have to go to a best doctor.
