    Hi my name is lettie! Yes I am lots of it and it makes me cry. I am reading some of the medication side effects and some of them says that it makes hair fall out.. So I'm hoping to talk to my doctor to see if we could change my meds. Good luck smile lettie

    Hi Lettie. Iread about side effects and it dosn't say about losing hair. Idont think there is anything like this foam i am using as it puts a film over the ulcers and stops the bleeding which is marvelous realy.I have just made an appointment to see the doctor and tell him. Thanks for YOUR REPLY.XX
