From the time I was 17 until my mid-late 50s, my feet (on tops and toes) were always very hairy ... hairy enough to draw a lot of comments when people would see me barefoot (which was pretty much all the time) ... and the Hobbit and Mr. Frodo jokes? Gosh, I guess I've endured and heard them all. After I turned 56, the hair on my feet/toes suddenly began thinning and by 59, when I had my stroke, it had disappeared altogether.
My question is: has anyone else, who is hairy-footed, experienced a sudden loss of foot hair? Or, could that have been a circulatory issue warning the risk of heart attack or stroke? Just curious.
