Mary, So far, I don't have any symptoms of hair falling out. Hopefully that won't happen but if it does, I'll March down to the party store to get myself a big red nose and a rainbow wig! I can hen go to the hospital and make some kids happy!!! Have to make lemonade out of lemons. Haha! Actually...I hadn't thought of that. I don't THINK it's any flare...I've been feeling really good lately. To the others...I did get a couple of shampoo and something else from the doc for the itch. Hoping it will be the answer.
He was a little puzzled about the itchiness, but said it doesn't really surprise him that it may be a lupus symptom. He didn't really think it was from the medicine, but didn't rule it out as reactions are different for everybody. I'm going to get a prescription from him for a medicated shampoo, but no promises it will help. In the general scheme of things I'm OK with it.

Joe, let me know what your dermatologist says. Your experience mimics mine....although my scalp has never been sensitive.
Good to know, Joe. I’m on Ketoconazole (medicated shampoo) and some other solution that I put on my scalp after I towel dry. She wants me to do this till I see her again in 6 weeks. I must say…it seems to be helping just in this past week.
Hoping it works for you. Even though she called it seborrhea, I don’t have dandruff, oily scalp or anything…but seborrhea is inflammation.
