Comparison of the Pathology of Fascia in Eosinophilic Myalgia Syndrome Patients and Idiopathic Eosinophilic Fasciitis

A user experienced a painful rash from both liquid and foam minoxidil, suggesting an allergy to minoxidil itself. They are seeking others with similar experiences.

The user experienced red pimples and a rash from using topical minoxidil, possibly due to propylene glycol. Suggestions included seeing a dermatologist, switching to foam without propylene glycol, using Nizoral, and adjusting application timing.

The user has been using oral minoxidil, finasteride, and dutasteride for hair loss, along with supplements like arginine and collagen, but has seen no improvement. They also suffer from chronic eczema, which may contribute to hair loss, but it is considered reversible.

Topical Minoxidil may cause pericardial effusion. Caution is advised when using Minoxidil, even topically.

Minoxidil can cause dark circles and skin issues, and users suggest reducing dosage or switching to foam. Supplements like vitamin C, glycine, and MSM may help with collagen production to reduce these side effects.

The conversation is about dealing with hair shedding due to seborrheic dermatitis and recent illness. Recommendations include treating seborrheic dermatitis with ketoconazole, correcting vitamin D deficiency, and improving sleep.
