Sorry about your hair loss it really messes with how you feel about yourself. I have always had real thick hair but in the last two years I have lost quite a bit of hair so much it is very noticeable not only to me but to others as well. I have been on Advair for about 2 and a half years for my asthma. When I first started taking it I thougt it was to good to be true because of how well it helped my breathing. It actually crossed my mind that it could be the reason for my hair loss, and after reading this Iam pretty much convinced that to be true. I understand you might lose your hair as you get older but Iam not that old and it happened to rapidly to be normal. I also am feeling other symptoms such as pain in my legs hands and arms within the last 8 months. Iam gonig to stop taking it and see what happens. I would like to know if these symptons will stop or has it done any permant damage?
