I have done the prednisone 5 tbs day 4 2 weeks than a drop down to 4 tbs a day for 2 weeks and then so on and so on and they worked well for me until i stopped them. then it all seemed to do what it wanted from gray to brown then ok i am leaving you again. Also done the jabs in scalp and the eye brows (god that was a killer) done the smelly creams and shampoo's everything works for a while but as soon as i stop treatment it all leaves me again so i think its time to just accept i am bald and beautiful and stick a wig on and go about my daily business lol (UPDATE 09/09/08)But now trying new treatment PUVA so lets give that ago (sorry to say this but i am not ready to give up yet!!!!)
