I knew something was wrong with me, but nobody else did. I am 36 years old now; when I was younger I was in seemingly perfect health. When I was 18 years old, I had to get prescription eyeglasses. I became near sighted. Even though all the eye doctors I saw said this is just a natural part of aging; I knew something was wrong. Four years later I noticed small bumps on my scalp.
People mistook this for the beginning stages of balding, however the hair no longer existed only where the small bumps were. The doctors I saw ran fungal and bacterial tests on my scalp. Every test came back negative, so according to the doctors nothing is wrong with me. As the years go by, more small bumps appear on my scalp (for every bump I loose more hair). Sometimes the bumps bleed and sometimes the skin on the scalp flakes off and is white similar to dandruff. I see more doctors; I finally find one who gives me a diagnosis. I am told that I have folliculitis. Okay great, I say! Now that you know what is wrong with me, how do we cure it?
