Re: Maybe O/T, but foot cramps related to iodine?
copy and paste from the post I linked:
3) have received, in private communications, indications that the lymph is not moving in difficult cases of FBD. The io-docs are recommending more salt-loading. I think that the lymph is not moving because of extended periods of elevated sodium intake, along with other possible reasons, of course.
begnign cysts and lumps are made up of pockets of lymph:

"... most benign lumps and cysts found in the breasts are largely composed of lymph fluid."
http://www.pathlights.com/nr_encyclopedia/13repr01.htm
"When there is too much fluid in the breast, instead of moving it out of the breast, the lymph system stores it in small spaces, here and there. Eventually, fibrous tissue surrounds them and thickens, forming cysts. These cysts frequently swell just before the monthly, causing pain."
Also peruse this thread:

And I understand that chairs may be tricky because of height considerations. I would suggest alteting the height of other components(wood blocks, anyone?) to make the desk fit the chair.
Sitting is a very difficult position for the body.
I only salt "loaded" maybe 4 or 5 times- only when I got a headache. For my extra salt during the early days of detox I would just add
Sea Salt to my drinking water...
Make time for your art. Make it a priority, as much time as you can spare. Even if that time is just an hour or two a week:) Just carry a scetchpad/idea book with you...
I'm also a non-practicing artist:)
