Sudden hair loss symptoms and conditions

ok, i have been on lisinopril 10mg hctz for about a year now. sometimes i feel the cough, sometimes my throat fells tight , but one thing that scared the hell out of me just in the last few weeks was a sudden bald spot on the top of my head, granted i am 50, but i have a reasonable head of hair, i also, to my surprise found a little bald spot usually where a man does not go bald down toward the back of the head. I just walked by my haircut lady to ask her if i had this bald spot two months ago and she said no way and to hurry and see a dermatologist, i am truly thinking its this dam drug, anyone else experience sudden hair loss in strange places on the head? thanks.

After reading some of you stories, it makes me realize the things I've been experiencing lately has to do with Yaz. The doctor in the beginning said this is the best bc pill ever! no weight gain nothing! RIGHT! I've been eating the same my whole life and I have put on at least 8 lbs. Worst of all, I think it has something to do with my sudden hair loss in the front of my hair! I've been on Yaz for almost 4 months now and am noticing these things. Has anyone else experienced these things mainly the hair problem???

I have been taking Atenolol for 6 years now. Initially I gained 40 lbs. I have sudden hair loss but the DR claims that this is from stress. I am very weak and tired all of the time. Any suggestions??
