Ever since I started taking my thyroid meds 31 years ago I've wanted off of them. I felt even back then it just didn't seem right for me. Operative word here is, 'me'.
It never occurred to me that people that are coming to this forum are; wanting; needing to take thyroid meds, and along with those they are taking Iodine. I do remember reading early on that it's a good thing to supplement thyroid meds with Iodine, which of course I did at first, before even attempting to cut back and then going off. I get focused on my needs I guess..so I have to apologize to the people that are taking the thyroid meds, and supplementing with Iodine if it seemed like the goal here was to get everyone off thyroid meds!
See how much I have to learn, thank goodness for my brain it's an ongoing process and that there will always be new things to fill it with. Now if it would only retain it!
