Venizia-

I am so happy you found a great doc! congrats!

Re: Low Iron and Hypothyroidism

Gracia,

I can understand where you are coming from and I understand that if it

works for people fine but my new doctor is not the typical,

conventional doctor you are taking about. This is why I chose to go

to him. He is into Broda and the others and he still says for

Hashi's don't do it. He is known for treating thyroid by " natural "

methods. Until someone with Hashi's can show me proof that it is

doing wonders for them, I will stick with what my doctor has to say,

for now. I do appreciate your comments and I feel you are very

genuine in your beliefs so I suggest you keep the info coming and

maybe someday you will convince me. Thanks for your concern.

that level of iodine that is in out bodies is reduced to the molecular and

chemical properties and does not switch on the IgE antibody-antigen mediated

hypersensitivity reaction that occurs in people who have a genetic profile that

triggers iodine allergic reactions.

The NIH [ national institutes of Health} at:

http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/druginfo/natural/patient-iodine.html<http://w\

ww.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/druginfo/natural/patient-iodine.html>

Allergies

Some individuals are allergic/hypersensitive to iodide or to organic

preparations containing iodine. Hypersensitivity reactions may involve rash,

angioedema (throat swelling), cutaneous/mucosal hemorrhage (bleeding), fever,

arthralgias (joint pains), eosinophilia (abnormal blood counts), urticaria

(hives), thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura, or severe periarteritis

(inflammation around blood vessels). Reactions can be severe and deaths have

occurred with exposure. Iodine-based products should be avoided if there is

known allergy/hypersensitivity to iodine.

Re: Low Iron and Hypothyroidism

Ok, answer this about people that actually 'are' allergic to

inorganic iodine. Iodine in the body is necessary to be alive, and

those people have iodine in their bodies (or they wouldn't be alive),

so how come they don't react to the iodine in their bodies, organs,

brain, eyes, skin, etc?

>

> your lack of medical knowledge is showing garcia BECAUSE NOT

EVERYONE can take iodine. people who are allergic to any form of

iodine can not take it because they can get an severe allergic

reaction that could kill them! I know because I am one of them.

medicine as well as allopathic medicine concurs about this. she also

knows that NOT all people can be on hormone replacement therapy, take

this is just a lot of misinformation.

actually lupus/sle absolutely MUST be treated with hormones.

It sounds like Prudence Hall will be open to new thinking at some point.

you can " ask a pharmacist " at http://www.womensinternational.com

:)

your lack of medical knowledge is showing garcia BECAUSE NOT EVERYONE can take

iodine. people who are allergic to any form of iodine can not take it because

they can get an severe allergic reaction that could kill them! I know because I

am one of them.

one of my docs, prudence hall who has extensive training in natural medicine

contraindicated for people who have lupus/sle to take any hormone replacement

because they will flare the disease process, just like people who have breast

cancer and uterine cancer- you NEVER give them hormone replacement because the

women who are not in menopause and kids CAN NOT take sex hormone replacement

therapy! otherwise you are giving them something that can trigger cancer and

other diseases.

I never said good medical care was about using monotherapy. DO NOT PUT WORDS

INTO MY MOUTH.

I was speaking about armour specifically.

like I have said what works for you is great- but it may not work for every

other person in the universe.

I am very happy that what you take helps you- I just can't understand why you

can't accept that not everyone is like you. even sam, takes more armour than you

do- because she needs it. if you feel that we are all the same [gggg] then why

don't you take 11 grains of armour?

Re: Re: Low Iron and Hypothyroidism

you don't know enough about using cortef and iodine, which of course everyone

can take. and then there are the sex hormones.

One of my best docs, a Broda doc, had me do 24 hr urine test for 32

different things from

http://www.antibodyassay.com<http://www.antibodyassay.com/> --cost about $350.

He spent 2 hours talking to me as well. first thing he said was " tell me

everything. don't think that something is unimportant. " He listened, used his

experience plus test results. I needed cortef, Armour, sex hormones.

good medical care isn't very often about one hormone by itself.

Gracia

and I am not advocating that you do- your dose is optimal, a person who is

just starting armour and hasn't reached their optimal dose- who either can't

take adrenal meds or iodine can be at risk for AFIB and osteo. look at roni- she

was experiencing afib and her dose is not optimal yet!!!!!!

what do you want to me to do for that small grp of patients, ignore their

symptoms, especialy the cardiac with directions to ignore it- it will go away-

and what happens if a few of them have a stroke or heart attack caused by the

afib which I told them not to worry about?!! what would you do, gracia??

Interesting. Thanks gracia!

-- Re: Re: Low Iron and Hypothyroidism

my TSH is .3 but my frees are perfect. I would not change my Armour dose

based on TSH.

Gracia

Well are there any instances in which a tsh <0.5 is okay? I thought it was

<0.1.

Hi Neil,

I think you may have missed a few of my posts. I am a user of bio identical

hormones - estrogen, testosterone and progesterone/progestin. I too was a

victim of early menopause and as I stated in one of my earlier posts this

week, quite a few years ago I got a really negative dexa scan showing osteo

problems. So I went on PREMPRO (non bio identicals) and a few years later

had the scan redone and I was in great shape bone wise (osteoporosis). I

then switched to bio identicals which I have been on since 2002 - but never,

before now, have I taken Vitamin D. So, my point in the post to Gracia

and Sam , the bone improvement cannot be attributed directly to the use of

Armour when one is using sex hormones too. That's all my point was - not

that sex hormones cannot or do not improve bone mass. I didn't say that,

couldn't say that - because as I wrote earlier, my own bones improved from

them. My doc doses me according to what works for my female conditions and

my blood estradiol ranges from 66 to 72 which is high for a postmenopausal

woman (untreated post meno women range around 30) - but which works for me

and which frees me of the terrible vestibulitis and dysathetic vulvodynia

disorders. My testosterone is on the high normal side for a menopausal

woman and progesterone is never tested. I loathe

prosterone of any kind - which causes bloating, headache, nausea,

constipation, breast pain, bladder irritation and a whole host of other

things.

I will say, however, that I have still osteoarthritis and have had it since

my early 30's - it started in my toes and spine. Sex hormone therapy has

not made it disappear despite the research that the two estrogen receptors

alpoha nd beta have been identified in mormal and osteoarthritic cartilage,

indicating that cartilage can responde to estrogens. Growing older (59now)

has only increased my problems with arthritis. It remains to be seen if my

dosing with Vitamin D will!!! Hopefully this is so.

Dosing with extra hormones because one has headache or a hip ache (strained

muscles, slept the wrong way - any one of a million causes) is insane. BTW,

have you seen the dosages Gracia claims to be on? Compare that to those of

your wife.

I guess the bottom line for me, Neil is that Gracia's insistence that all

diseases and all our aches and pains are due to either thyroid, iodine or

sex hormone deficiency kinda leave a bad taste in my mouth. Osteoarthritis

has any number of contribution factors - obestity (I'm 50 lbs overweight and

have been a tubbo since birth), lack of proper diet - I eat ice cream, chips

and candy daily, lack of use of vitmins (I never took calcium or Vitamin D)

and on and on and on. SOOOOOO many of us want to blame what's wrong with us

on docs, failing thyroids, iodine problems, sex hormone problems - you get

the picture. SO many of us want instant gratification - oops my head hurts

- I'll pop some ESTROGEN (??????). So few of us want to change our

lives, lifestyles and eating habits. Its way to easy to blame the system!!

They no doubt do react and never feel really well - with nagging symptoms

(as only allergy can produce) all their lives. It is when we OD them with

dyes containing iodine or meds of that sort that the reaction becomes

violent.

My father nearly died from an iodine injection back in the 70's. His heart

stopped and he had to be zapped back to life. The injection was part of a

mylegram (Sp?) for his WWII spinal injury. For the rest of his life - he

wore a medical bracelet.

As we boomers have entered into the menopause years, I have friends who have

been found to be allergic to sex hormones, yes compounded bio's as well as

non bio's.

Yeah, I'm sure it can be nasty - but the bottom line is it was confirmed

that he reacted tot he iodine and had to avoid it the rest ofhis life -

hence the bracelet.

Like you Sam, I have lived long enough - been on enough lists, had enough

medical problems to have learned a bit about a number of things. You seem

to have an equal amount of friends with problems.

Dusty

Re: Low Iron and Hypothyroidism

Contrast dye is nasty...it's not uncommon to have

bad reactions to that stuff...I don't react well

to contrast dyes. I do great on iodoral, tho.

You seem to know lot of people that are allergic to

Re: Re: Low Iron and Hypothyroidism

you don't know enough about using cortef and iodine, which of course

everyone can take. and then there are the sex hormones.

One of my best docs, a Broda doc, had me do 24 hr urine test for 32

different things from http://www.antibody <http://www.antibodyassay.com>

assay.com --cost about $350. He spent 2 hours talking to me as well. first

thing he said was " tell me everything. don't think that something is

unimportant. " He listened, used his experience plus test results. I needed

cortef, Armour, sex hormones.

good medical care isn't very often about one hormone by itself.

Gracia

and I am not advocating that you do- your dose is optimal, a person who is

just starting armour and hasn't reached their optimal dose- who either can't

take adrenal meds or iodine can be at risk for AFIB and osteo. look at roni-

she was experiencing afib and her dose is not optimal yet!!!!!!

what do you want to me to do for that small grp of patients, ignore their

symptoms, especialy the cardiac with directions to ignore it- it will go

away- and what happens if a few of them have a stroke or heart attack caused

by the afib which I told them not to worry about?!! what would you do,

gracia??

There ya go again, Sam. Ignoring the truth. The man was confirmed to have

an iodine allergy and had to wear a Medic bracelet.

You can't change that no matter how many times you post other info to try

and cloud the issue. Very clever - but - it is what it is. He was

allergic to the iodine.

Because it is technically a sensitivity, rather than an allergy, which

means it has a threshold. The threshold dose will vary greatly, but it

is evidently at about 3 mg for most people with the sensitivity.

Isn't an allergy a response to a protein?

Yes. However, certain chemicals (iodine included) attach to proteins

that are already there, creating a protein mediated reaction. As I

recall such substances are called haptogens.

I am a person who started having allergies in my early twenties. I keep getting

new ones

to things that I have no idea will give me an allergy. I have come across

people who have

no allergies from time to time, that cannot conceive that something that is

totally benign

to them and to the people they know could possibly be toxic or even deadly to

someone

else.

I don't see any point in pursuing this point over and over again. It's obvious

that no one

is going to change their mind, on either side, so can't we just drop it?

Could that explanation apply to perfumes, chemicals, smoke, etc.? Could these

and/or

other substances, such as penicillin create new proteins or attach to existing

ones?

I had the IVP in 1983 for a kidney cyst . The discomfort I had was

nausea and mild vomiting. But the test was over relatively quickly - they

dumped that da-- drip into the vein very rapidly and did the scans very

rapidly. The nurse said that the nausea and vomiting aren't usual, but I

was given that little tray thingy when they put the IV in - so I'm guessing

its not unexpected.

Otherwise, I wasn't uncomfortable. (Except I hated the scanner - think it

was CAT- maybe an MRI - just can't remember - but I hated being inside the

thing.

Re: Low Iron and Hypothyroidism

I have to go in for a kidney contrast dye test of some kind [sore kidney

area for a month]. It's a Fluoroscopy IVP W/Tomo. I also will have a

renal sonogram.

I had to do bloodwork first to make sure that there are no indications

that I should not have the tests done, and have to get that result first.

The lady at the lab that did the bloodwork indicated the test might

be very uncomfortable??? Anybody familiar with that? I've had contrast

x-rays of various kinds before, and other than the junk you have to

drink I don't remember anything that particularly bothered me.

Thanks,
