Feeling kinda stupid.... okay, maybe just a little dense -edit-
I fell well over a month ago and bounced back really fast, as I was on higher amounts of iodine. I began to dance again and then less frequently. I was not enjoying it so much and then I noticed that my left ankle, the one hurt in the fall was swollen when I lay down to sleep... then noticed it was actually all the time. I have kept off it over a week. In the mean time I got a cold/detox at about the same time and was doing what I could to cope.
I had lowered my 100mg plus daily amount of iodine... skipped days, sometimes two or three at a time.. winging it, and thinking not a thing had changed.
Tonight, in between computer game sessions (Max Payne - wonderful almost-mindless shoot them up) I got to thinking... had the higher dose I had been taking protected my wounded ankle from excess irritation?? Me thinks yes. And when I lowered the amount did that then allow the half healed situation to arise? If I had not danced, perhaps I would not have re-injured the ankle/re-strained it, but without the
Iodine the ankle was vulnerable whether I danced or not.
So, of course I am back to daily 100 mg and if that brings on the zits again.. Good! LOL
I hate the zits.. but I really prefer walking with zits to limping without them. Plus they will eventually go away forever.
Now, I am not saying not to lower your
Iodine amounts. I am saying I see how much help it has been - unseen and unappreciated until now FOR ME. And I have been singing the purple praises all along! LOL
