you said you are using tricomin.. what are your thoughts on this stuff. im
trying to get off all the topical treatments and go the oral route. i believe
all the topicals with alcohol are damaging to the scalp in the long run. im
trying to get some feedback on tricomin as far as healing the scalp up a bit.
im going to an all oral route..besides, i think the only reason why most of
topicals work is because they are absorbed into the blood stream anyway. tom

Tom,

I try to use a mixture of both topicals and orals depending on the way the two
drugs interact and if one is local, etc.
I don't know if tricomin is helping any because I am on other things too.

Let me run it all by you again:

1. An exotic topical antiandrogen I just started, if it's legit. RU digging
my lingo?
2. oral finasteride.
3. topical 5% minoxidil
4. topical tricomin after shampoo treatment.
5. nizoral shampoo (2%)
6. T-Gel shampoo
7. Tricomin shampoo

I am planning to start a low dose of oral spironolactone to my treatment plan
and perhaps black licorice too.

So you see I have a mixture of topicals and orals. I'm kind of thinking that
if I get my hair back I will be able to get rid of a lot of this stuff and
still maintain the hair.

Interesting assortment Maneless. Would you by chance know of a few that you
think might be more prominent in achieving any growth. I might have to drop
Finasteride, I think its messing up my stomach- I even cut down to lower
dosages. how do you feel about your results from Minoxidil?
Currrently I'm one month into the Dr Lee version. I may try the regular Minox
soon. my reason for using Dr Lee, was the scuttle in the newgroup that it
didn't cause as much irritation and flaking. any thoughts on Tricoman? I
noticed that product called Nu-Hair at walgreens, it seemed to have some good
stuff in it (topical) but I think it might be another fly by Night company, and
the cost was $24/bottle

I just don't know for sure what would be best amongst the things that are
attainable.
have you considered Sean McCormick's treatment plan. Sean is seeing excellent
results.

For me, I'm thinking 12.5 or 25 mgs two times per day, but remember I have a
topical antiandrogen that is supposedly very effective. You don't have this
same antiandrogen.

Tom, who are you talking to, and what are you talking about? I don't mean that
rudely or anything, I just want to answer you if your question is directed to
me, but I don't know if the question is directed to me and I don't know what
medicine you are talking about.
Please let me know if you are talking to me and what medicine you are talking
about.

I'm still not sure its the Propecia. at least I hope not, but My stomach has
been sore on the right side sometimes left. and Have had some really weird
Bowel movements (Color,shape)
Initially I never had any problems with this, but only in the last year has it
been bad.
Already saw a Gastro, and had the usual Battery of tests.diagnosis was
IBS.(which means, we have no idea) I tried skipping a few days, and no pain. My
next plan is to go to the Univ of Wisconsin- hopefully they can get to the
bottom of it- But now that you mention indegestion tom, I had a couple of times
where I had a stabbing pain in chest, I rushed to the ER thinking the worst.
but wasn't having a heart attack.

It's very expensive and I guess it's being absorbed, but there are no results
yet.

Before I even get into that issue I want to be sure it works. I'm using it
right now so you'll have to wait a few months while we see what develops.

Remember Maneless, my treatment regimen is not for the weak at heart. I use
things that many people are concerned about producing side effects and of
course who knows what the long term risks are associated with any treatment
regimen.

Folligen has alchol and blue dyes to give the impression of more
copper peptides than it acually has. I would use folligen spray
instead since it doesn't have alchol or blue dyes since it has more
copper peptides anyway.

Don't you mean *Tricomin* has blue dye?
