Mike three months post transplant has "cancer hair"...thinnig, dry, stringy, weird. It was almost like this on Interferon and grew back fine. Procrit? Though it started since he began the combo Procrit with Cellcept.

I had the same thing after my transplant. Then I stopped the cellcept and they reduced my prograf. I've heard people blame the hair falling out or thinning with both cellcept and prograf, so maybe the combo is sure to make it happen. Usually it clears up eventually, though the level of drugs probably has something to do with that.
