Do you mean your abdominal problems and constipation clear as soon as

you get back on iodine on Mondays?

I've now been off iodine for a month....well tried to use seaweed

instead but can't get nearly enough iodine this way.

It took 2 weeks to get my bowel peristalsis back to normal.

But this my breasts were swollen and painful so they reacted to to

lowered iodine.

I agree cycling the iodine weekly might deal with toxicity.

Are you cycling with 75mgs or 50?

<<SB>> I have not started the on / off protocol yet. I took Thur/Fri/Sat off after being on 75 mgs of Iodoral since October. It was on these three days that the pain and constipation returned. When I started it again on Sunday I felt better by the afternoon. > > I agree cycling the iodine weekly might deal with toxicity.> Are you cycling with 75mgs or 50?

<<SB>> - I was told to come down to 50 mgs from 75 mgs. So I am on day 2 of 50 mgs.

I've been meaning to ask you the reason Dr. B. raised you from 50 to 75....I still have that question, and now the new question: why are you going back down? Is this on the basis of saturation tests or other symptoms or what?

I currently raised myself from 50 to 75. Each raise I do, I see improvement in adrenal and thyroid function, plus I'm dealing with a goiter. I'm just experimenting at this point, but would value your in put (between tax returns) From my point of view, the Cortef I take allows me to take more Iodoral which in turns seems to have a positive effect on stablizing/raising temps and energy levels. I am still on 90 mg. Armour.

<<SB>> Since I am wating for my pokey kids to finish their snacks before bed I can pop on and answer this. We raised to 75 mgs back in October when I had persistant pain during ovulation. He wanted to hit me hard to try to get iodine into the ovaries to stop the pain. It worked too! The pain was gone the second month. But we believe that I am very toxic and that the increased dose is throwing me into a detox that is too hard on my body. When I first started I had cloudy urine for weeks. My face and back broke out in acne. I have been achy and tired since we upped my dose. He had me go off for 3 days and see how I felt. I felt better so he said to go back to 50 mgs with the Sunday off to give my body a rest from the detoxing.

<<SB>> We just cut my cortef too. I had been on 30 mgs and the lab test showed we were over shooting and giving too much so I have to go down to 15 mgs. There are other issues that showed up in the labs that are good indicators of why I may be fatigued too so we will work on those things. Seeing my labs and doing a compartive analysis from a year ago and some from 6 mos ago shows some trends. The last run was 19 vials of blood. My cancer markers were steady too so there was no need to push the level of iodine right now. I have a loading kit in my freezer too waiting for the signal from Dr. B to send it to Dr. Abraham.

One more thing - I have no thyroid so I am saturating body not thyroid.
