I've had AA since I was 10 years old on and off...I started losing my hair this time in May and did the normal shots and anthrillian treaments but the hair loss has become so bad (more than 80% eyebrows eyelashes) the doc has me trying cyclosporine 100mg twice a day. I've been on it for two weeks and it seems to be making things worse. Now she wants to raise me up to 200mg twice a day and im so scared.Has anyone used or had this reaction to cyclosporine?? any advice??

Hello and welcome, Donna!
I'm sorry you're having a bad time! I know how hard alopecia can be; I have had it for about 30 years. You might want to read my book, "If Your Hair Falls Out, Keep Dancing!" It will give you a lot of helpful information, including research, medical, treatment , inspirational stories from other women, and some humor, too! It has received two national awards, including Book of the Year. You can find out more on my page. It's available on Amazon.com. Let me know if there's anything else I can do! I am here to help.
LeslieAnn
