I recently was diagnosed with chlamydia after a partner cheated and then experienced unexplained hepatitis the day after taking antibiotics for the treatment. My ALT levels were 523 and AST 190 and Alkaline phosphatase 258, albumin 1.1 and slightly reactive lymphocytes. I went from 140 pounds to 125 pounds in the course of a week and a half despite normal diet.
Prior to this I have a Rheumatoid arthritis and type 1 anti trypsin deficiency type ZZ confirmed diagnosis.
My liver levels returned to normal within 3 weeks and all causes known to my doctor were ruled out. ( Auto immune, viral hepatitis, further stds or sti's, no history of alcohol or drug use and a minimal history of birth control which at the time had been chateal and was discontinued at the time of hepatitis. No other medications have been taken save for azithromycin for the initial chlamydia diagnosis, no RA medications etc)
Now two months later and my hair is thinning an incredible amount though actual hair loss seems to be at a normal rate despite being able to see my scalp clearly through my hair.
My iron tibc was 480 and thyroid came back at 2.35 ( still normal under American standards) but otherwise my doctor cannot find a cause and suggests a visit to a dermatologist. I am 27 and I weigh 125 pounds.
Could the hair loss be related to the unexplained liver incident.
