itchy skin

[Guest guest]

Since I've gone on my thyroid meds (Feb this year), and added iodine,

my skin is so itchy all the time I can hardly stand it. Lotions

don't help at all. My skin is still extemely dry and flaky, my face

looks like I had a sunburn - not red, just dry and flaky. I know the

dry skin is part of the hypo thing, what I am wondering is, when does

it get better?

Maybe it is the iodine (Lugol's) and detoxing fluoride, etc? Maybe

there is some vitamin or supplement that could help? I took some

Vitamin E today, maybe I should take lots?

Anyone else have this problem and have any ideas? I'm about ready to

crawl out of my skin! I live in a very dry area, so that doesn't

help - relative humidity of about 15% is the norm here in New Mexico.

I'm asking over on the thyroid list too, so I'll report if they have

any ideas too.
