weight loss
"I have been on phentermine for about 6 months and I am now almost 40 pounds down. I have major side effects that I never got before. I have extreme hair loss and I have some bald patches in my head, I just turned 28! My doctor isn't concerned at all and states it's just a side effect and wants to "wean" me off so I don't "withdrawal " after being on it for 6 months. My nails grow cracked now and I have to apply layers and layers of nail polish to keep them from braking and bending. It's awful, I even had to cut my long hair just to avoid my hair falling out so much. I'm scared to take showers, brush my hair and even run my ringers through it since my hair falls out in chunks.
