It may help to compensate. I'm not sure how being in Prozac would

affect the fluoride, but the iodine may actually help to compensate.

In high fluoride areas, I believe it's better to keep up the iodine.

hypothyroids report lots of OCD issues, even knowing they have to increase thyroid meds when they get a return of OCD symptoms. IMO Armour and especially adrenal meds and iodoral would fix this.

Skipper asked:

"What's prozac do for him?"

He developed OCD back in high school. His psychiatrist (at that time) tried several different meds on him and this is what worked best .. at that time. This helps him with depression issues and the very noticeable OCD symptoms that he can have. At this point, I wouldn't call him a "danger" to society .. but he has had (recent) problems with the law (several misdemeanors) since this past spring. He began stealing (I guess that does mean "danger"??) after he lost his job! Which floored us, 'cause he is not "wanting" for anything .. except for "friends". We believe that he has to "pay" in a lot of different ways to keep his so called "friends". There was never ever any legal issues before this past spring/summer .. and now all of a sudden he has had repeated "offenses".

Because of the above situation, I am horribly afraid of taking him off any of his meds. The risperdal, I believe, helps him with his psychotic/impulsive actions. Because the courts are involved now, they are advocating big time that he not miss any of his "prescribed" medications.

The Pfeiffer Treatment Center in Warrenville, Illinois is the best place for natural treatment of Schizophrenia and other mental disorders. They specialize in nutritional balancing of biochemical imbalances. There is also a great book called "Natural healing of schizophrenia and other mental disorders" which discusses much of what they do at the Pfeiffer Treatment center.

We took our son the Pfeiffer Treatment Center, early in his high school years. He was on a quite the supplement program back then. (I think he had a couple of diagnosis, but the one I remember off the top of my head is pylruria. sp?) My husband was always saying to me that he didn't understand why I continued on with the supplement program, because it didn't change anything. I think that he was on the "program" for about 4 yrs ... Now that I am thinking about it .. I don't remember a possible thyroid issue ever being brought up back then.

If you have

had him to the Pfeiffer

Center, then you have had

him looked after for what I was suggesting. That is a great center. The

orthomolecular treatment doesn’t work unless you avoid the foods to which

he is allergic. The main allergens are wheat, dairy and sugar in schizophrenia.

I would save

my energy in checking out the old records. You can get him tested now for his

thyroid and for iodine deficiency. Years ago, the thyroid tests demanded you

be greatly deficient in order to show hypo and they didn’t know about

iodine deficiency.

If he is iodine

and thyroid deficient, you would probably see an improvement in him when the

deficiency is addressed.

Be careful.

There are studies that are showing that supplementation with T3 is

helping an overwhelming number of Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue and

Depressed patients. Iodine helps in the production of Thyroid

hormones. Overwhelming is a great word, but it doesn't mean that it

is a cure-all. No blanket statements fit in medicine or the human

body. This is a sensitive subject because Depression can lead to

suicide, which is a very serious subject. Who here would want to be

the responsible one for a suicide resulting from changing one drug

that is working, over to another that had potential but failed in that

particular case?

Please be careful with blanket statements...

what? I am talking about OCD here, which is thyroid/adrenal. As for depression, Hertoghe MD says the best depression med is cortef. That doesn't mean it will work for everybody but it is the med that is never Rxed by docs. On 90mg of Armour, the most I could tolerate, I experienced CFS (could barely hold a coffee cup) and severe depression (wishing that a plane would hit my house a few months b4 9-11). I needed cortef and some other hormones. And I can report that Iodoral has a huge effect on mood.

Spend some time on support groups and you will see what actually works.

I appreciate your caution. I am one of the fibromites who got her life back with T3 supplementation. Still working on hormone balancing issues though.One thing I have to mention here. I was on Prozac for years. While it took away the awful lows, it also took away the highs. And it did not help me over-all. I just kept getting sicker which made me want to give up more than the depression ever did.I weaned off Prozac..took me three tries to do so very, very slowly. But once I treated my thyroid, my outlook improved immensely. Prozac never did this for me. This is only my personal experience!Now I'm reading that Prozac MAY have contributed to my thyroid issues. I'm now doubly glad I weaned off it.But I DO appreicate your caution. It is very wise and my experience is only my experience.Ellen <ellen@...> wrote: Be careful.There are studies that are showing that supplementation with T3 ishelping an overwhelming number of Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue andDepressed patients.

I am so glad you found it helped you! Imagine how many others out

there could likely be helped in the same way. I am all for trying T3

therapy before Prozac or other antidepressants. i think it should be

in the PDR in that order. It's not and I do worry about taking

someone who is functioning on Prozac or alternative and just making

the switch. I'm sure there are others more knowledgeable than I on

the issue of antidepressants that would know of a better way of doing

it, and it seems to me that iodine (if there are not autoimmune issues

at work) would be a reasonable thing to consider as well.

I have a friend I think would benefit tremendously. Now I just have

to try and talk her into it which so far isn't working. She goes to

mayo's for all her treatment and won't do anything without their

say-so. Right now she's got a bad doc who won't even consider the

thought. Probaby the same Mayo guy I got that told me I had no

thyroid and to go home even tho I had other issues he didn't feel like

addressing at that time. Grief!
