IODINE

[Guest guest]

These are some postings that I made to the adrenals group, but the answer that I

received, from the moderator, about iodine never correcting low thyroid makes

absolutely no sense to me at all, because while it may be controversial, it was

used specifically for thyroid issues for quite some time...

Per your advice, I went off of the Lugol's 5% iodine, so as not stress my

adrenals out any further and I also weaned off of the thyroid meds as well...I

am still taking the Isocort, at the recommended dosage: 4, 3, 2, 1 throughout

the day. I usually feel like I never slept and have horrendous burning eyes, but

lately I feel like a truck ran over me and I am sleeping later and it's harder

for me to get up...I have noticed my temps are going up, but I feel like

complete crap...I ordered some iron to assist me, but I am wondering if you

think that the Isocort may be affecting me in some weird way??? Why would it be

helping my temps go up, but making me feel worse at the same time??? Two days

ago I started a diluted 35% food grade hydrogen peroxide protocol as well...but

I certainly noticed the difference in how I felt way before I started this...

PLEASE ADVISE!!

Because I don't think that they make me feel good and I think that quite

possibly the iodine supplementing might be enough for me.

But you don't think stopping thyroid meds is why you feel worse? I do! I

have not EVER seen low thyroid corrected by iodine.

It's a possibility, but so is the fact that the Isocort may be ineffective, or

at the wrong dose...and I personally don't know that I believe that iodine would

not EVER correct hypothyroid. ..they used it back in the day for some reason...I

really cannot say one way or the other until I see what works for me...either

way I am not advocating that everyone go off of their thyroid meds; I am just

trying something that I think may work for me...I may be wrong, or I may be

right...it remains to be seen.
