Also, in Ginagirl's second post below this, she mentioned a bath with a cup of borax + a few drops of iodine. In addition, there is the recipe for a skin spray.
Bromine coming out the skin is nasty. I'm so sorry you're dealing with that. Please say you're drinking enough water to help the salt get the bromine out your kidneys, instead. At least half your body weight in ounces of water per day -- 160 pounds = 80 ounces clean water MINIMUM.
Also, Ginagirl has talked a lot about the uses of boron/borax with iodine. Here are two samples (the entire threads are also useful), which I hope may have the germ of an idea for you. Although you don't have psoriasis, I believe the elements still apply.

It's easy to believe that you have sort of a toxic stew brewing. The water will help dilute it. I'm so glad to hear the borax is helping. :)
I minimized salt loading because of the ridiculous swelling. Then I stopped it because of the bromide displacement theory. As Borax is also a salt as you say, is it safe to use 1/2 tsp of it for every liter? Or should it be sea salt @ 1/2 tsp per liter in conjunction with Borax @ 1/4?
The sea salt that I have is Brittany's Coarse Gray Sea Salt.
Last night was not symptom free, although I had much more sleep (10 hrs) than I've been getting. I'm confident it's candida now.
The swelling really got to me though. I could not move my arms or walk without pain. :( I guess the goal is to balance the swelling with the reduction in symptoms.
Yes, good. Liver support. The liver detoxes, the kidneys flush, the intestines move out. Then not so much out the skin.
