Guest guest Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 I started on two drops of the 5% Lugol's, couple of days later a funny sort of " lump " or something high in the throat, looked up Bromide detox symptoms, yup, swelling of the base of the tongue muscle. Harmless but I'm a singer, don't want unfamiliar feelings in the throat. Backed off the iodine until it went away in a few days (salt water didn't " cure " it). Bought the 2%, started on one drop, during a month or so increased to 20 drops (in my morning tea, yes tea has fluoride but 20 drops of 2% Lugol's has to outmatch whatever is in weak green tea). No throat issues. At about 16 drops - very loose bowels every morning, at 20 drops (yesterday) a fuzzy frontal headache a couple hours later (went away with salt water. Also, for a few hours after I drink the iodine there's a minimal feeling like the glands under the side of the jaw are a tad swollen, but nothing evident when I touch them. Two other interesting changes: 1. I'm (usually) sleeping through the night. At my age one naturally gets up once, groans if it has to be twice. Now two out of three days I sleep right through. 2. I feel good. I don't even know what I mean by that. I still have low energy, take a nap most afternoons, etc, mind still blinks out for a moment, I still forget where I put things, but in some basic underlying sense I feel good. It's like an underlying boredom or something is gone. Anyone else have little emotional changes that might be caused by iodine? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
