Shannon Carroll Kreider replied to Tanya Stone's discussion Xanax and alopecia"I have had to take xanax on a regular basis before and it didn't help or hurt my AA."
Shannon Carroll Kreider replied to Paige's discussion High School Issues"I too went through what she is going through. Fortunately when I was in 6th grade, the teachers explained to the entire grade what I had. So, almost everyone in highschool knew about my wig. The only time it was pulled off was when a guy that had a…"
Shannon Carroll Kreider replied to rj, Co-founder's discussion Must your love interest 'see' your alopecia?"When I was young, I thought that this would be more of an issue than it was. I didn't tell people right out of the gate about my alopecia. I usually waited two weeks to a month to discuss my AA with them. This usually gave me time to gauge…"
Shannon Carroll Kreider replied to Ann Marino's discussion Just sharing"My original hair loss came with pain and itching. It started with AU and now is AA. The important thing is acceptance. I guess I'm lucky because it happened to me when I was 9 (now 29). So, instead of really feeling like a crisis now, it is…"
Shannon Carroll Kreider left a comment for Tish"I have had this disease for 20 years. I live close to Birmingham. If you have any questions, I might be able to help. If your AA progresses to a point that you choose to wear artificial hair, there are two really good shops in Hoover. Touching You…"
Shannon Carroll Kreider commented on Alopecia World's group Alopecia Areata"I have seen several posts on peoples children also getting Alopecia. I was just kind of wondering if this is inevitable or is there anyone here that has a child that hasn't had any symptoms. My son is 11 and now I'm starting to worry. (My…"
Shannon Carroll Kreider replied to Julia Gedeon's discussion Looks like my son has my crappy genes"It really depends on the doctor that does it. The female that I had was really quick and gentle. The man that I am using now is not. With her it was just a little weird feeling afterwards, the shots weren't that bad."
Shannon Carroll Kreider replied to hannah sophia holland's discussion Can I Dye My Hair? in the group Alopecia Areata"Manic Panic is a good dye to use. It isn't harsh. I wouldn't bleach it though. Everyone has different triggers, but bleaching is extremely stressful on ANYONE's hair and scalp."
Shannon Carroll Kreider replied to Julie R's discussion Oral Prednisone 40mg - Has anyone tried this? in the group Alopecia Areata"I just got off of this treatment and I hated it. It caused such horrible knee pain, I had to go to the regular doctor and get pain meds which I cannot stand. I will never do this again. The only time I have ever hurt that bad was labor."

Shannon Carroll Kreider replied to Julia Gedeon's discussion Looks like my son has my crappy genes"As painful as it may be, I would suggest the steroid shots. There was another girl in my highschool that developed AA at 14. These totally took care of it for her and her mom has Alopecia Universalis. They have also worked for me in the past and I…"
