I'm wondering if this is some sort of deficiency. Is it something I need to talk to my doctor about right away? I'd love to hear about others' experiences with this.

I was banded Jan 7, 2008 and noticed that i started loosing hair about 2 months ago. Others on the site have suggested eating more protein (I was getting 40-50 grams daily), so i added a protein drink to my diet and also started taking biotin. It's slowed down some, i'm hoping it will grow back soon.
