I am currently in a bad place and don't know what to do. Thoughtful suggestions would be appreciated! I've posted a few times about starting and stopping
Iodine due to pins and needles sensations (parasthesias)--not sure what exactly is causing the sensations.
Here are my previous posts:

In the second post, I hadn't been experiencing the pins and needles full force again, so I thought I had ruled out the iodine. However, now I'm not so sure. About all I can rule out at this point are the original salt I was using (never re-introduced that--switched brands) and a magnesium chloride lotion I was using.
I stopped the
Iodine last Tuesday, but I am continuing to have the pins and needles and other very uncomfortable issues that seem to be related to adrenal and liver function: extreme fatigue, extreme brain fog, gray/yellow bitter tongue coating (on top of the white that was previously there), pain in mid-upper back, headaches, and assorted other fun. I did lots of salt pushes and took
Epsom Salt baths while supplementing with
Iodine to help with detox. These are not doing anything to help with my current situation.
I am currently reading Andrew Hall Cutler's book on
Amalgam Illness, and many of the symptoms fit me to a T--not sure at this point whether mercury and/or copper are my issues.
The current issues I am having either started or were exacerbated upon starting the iodine and selenium.
I have currently stopped all supplements except Armour thyroid, magnesium, ascorbic acid, vitamin E, acidophilus, fish oil, a small amount of D, and an adrenal complex.
Any suggestions on how I can turn this around until I get the metal issues figured out? My activities are severely limited at this point, and I feel like the walking dead.
