thanks for the commiseration!!!!

how long have you been Iodining?

it is so crazy, I am being stubborn so I am sitting here in my 68 degree home shivering and I refuse to put on more clothes.....ha ha

well, I am probably stirring the pot because my ND asked me to ween off of my hydrocortizone. I have been taking 15mg day for 8 years and now I am down to 2.5mg day

so, my TPA axis is probably wondering what the heck is going on. I have been more tired the past few days. I dropped down to 2.5 mg from 5mg yesterday, maybe I crossed a line, but on a positive note I couldn't really notice any change with the hydrocortisone until now.....maybe I really do have adrenals that are still alive!!!!!


hmmmm

I took another 50mg of Iodoral and we will see what happens.

a week ago I didn't take my Iodoral until just before lunch and about one hour later my body got all nice and warm.....what a nice feeling that was....

When I was treating my FBD, I kept the thought in my mind that I was getting rid of a pre-cancerous condition, that was my priority . I went through a spell of being hyper initially(weight loss), then I think I was hypo(cold). I had various aches and pains. My breast hurt quite a bit at times. I had zits. I had various colors of pee and the most disgusting dreams. I went through intense emotional detox.

I have no idea why my period stopped for so long, perhaps I was hyper all that time although it did not seems so. It seemed insignificant to me, getting rid of the FBD was the important thing.

I think it's wonderful that you want to figure it out~ GOOD! We NEED you!

Brownstein states that upon commencing Iodine supplementation various symptoms of hyper and hypo may manifest early on. I think that the actual balancing act takes a LOT longer than he states. reference. Perhaps I'm assuming that he's talking short-term:

4)Iodine induced hypothyroidism and goiter

"When animals or humans that are Iodine deficient are given large doses of iodine, there is a TRANSIENT DECREASE in thyroid hormone production(approx. 26-40 hrs.) until the body reestablishes it's equilibrium with iodine. After that, thyroid levels adjust to normal and signs of hypothyroid do not develop.

5)Iodine-induced hyperthyroidism

The use of Iodine in a previously iodine-deficient population may result in a TRANSIENT INCREASE in thyroid hormones...Studies have shown that the increase in thyroid hormones, which could lead to hyperthyroid symptoms(palpitations, nervousness), will gradually decrease. Can be monitored with lab tests & adjustments in dosage.
