iodine relationship to high cortisol

[Guest guest]

Can too much iodine cause very high cortisol and its related symptoms of

sleeplessness, strong hormonal palpitations (anxiety), and low blood-sugar

issues?

After about 5 - 6 months of taking 4 Iodoral a day, I upped my dosage to about

7-8 per day for about 4 weeks. (This was before I joined this board and knew

much about iodine.)

Either by coincidence or not, right after that time I began to have the

above-mentioned symptoms along with fibromyalgia symptoms. I stopped the Iodoral

cold turkey (dumb, I know, but I was all alone figuring out my illness at that

time and didn't know which of my supplements might be contributing to my

problems).

What is the overall relationship between iodine and high cortisol problems?

Thanks,

Ronda
