Default Hair falling out? :(

I'm 42 and I've had CRPS for just over two years. It's spread and I've now got it in my whole left side.

I've always had shoulder length thick brown hair, and of course when your hair is long you notice the natural hair loss more when you wash it. I used to lose a regular amount when I washed my hair and brushed it out afterwards, but not much in between washes.

But over the last few months I've been losing a lot more of it. A LOT more. I've been emptying my hairbrush of handfuls of hair when I brush it, and when I washed it this morning there was masses in the bottom of the bath, it was quite shocking. My hair is feeling thinner too, I notice how much easier it is to brush now because there isn't so much of it.

I know it's natural to lose a bit more in the warm weather, but this isn't that, it's quite scary.

Any advice or thoughts? Is this CRPS-related or just a weirdness?

Bram.
