Thank you both for your responses. I see derm doc about the scalp condition on Wed. Perhaps she would refer me. She seems pretty sharp. Only went for a skin check and she found this right off...I thought my hair was a mess because of chemo seven years ago, but no, she gave me something for it and already my hair is returning.
