Re: My Iodine Experience so far....help?

Thank you ALL! You guys rock. :) Your input is so helpful and encourages me that I can get this evened out and feel better.

Sylvette - yeah, that makes sense. I do my best to drink half my body weight in oz every day. Feel like all I'm doing is going to the bathroom, LOL!

Ginagirl - thank you SO much! Thanks for the link to the article, very helpful to learn. Also, it is encouraging to know that you have had a similar struggle and are doing better.

I actually made a misprint in my magnesium dosage - that should have read 200mg of the Magnesium complex (200mg) *twice* a day - so it's actually 400mg that I usually get in pill form, because my bowels usually can't handle more. So, that is the reason I started the Magnesium Oil transdermally - 8 sprays is supposed to provide 960 mg of magnesium, I don't know though how much is absorbed I guess. (I average about 8 sprays every other day - it stings so I don't do it every day.)

Ok, I'll cut my Vit D/Calcium and try to get my magnesium deficiency better - that really fits with what I'm experiencing!

Thanks for the heads up on B6!! I am getting 300mg of B6 (as pryidoxine HCI) in my Optivite P.M.T. (http://www.optimox.com/pics/Optivite.html) - but am not taking a separate B6 pill. How much B6 do you suggest? Is there a certain kind?

You said large doses of vitamin B made your palps worse. What about my sublingual B12 and the ATP Cofactors (B2 and B3), do you think I should stop those to see if that would help my heart palps?

I'll work on upping my salt more. How much did you take that helped your palps? Did you take it in water?

I didn't know anything about Boron/Borox, thanks!

Trapper - thank you! Ok, yeah I was really feeling like I should give SSKI a try when I read that is it more gentle. (Can I get some from you, do you take paypal?) I have some of those really strong "rare earth magnets", just tape some on the bottle you think?
Yeah, I would like to take more iodine....but am so chicken about the larger amounts! I get it though, that maybe the larger amounts is what's needed to get past the detox and stuff....

FiveToedSloth - Ok, thanks! I've been doing coconut water/juice and eating bananas to get more potassium... I will look into the Albion process magnesium glycinate, maybe I can tolerate more of that kind. (I'm kind of fuzzy headed right now, so I'm probably just not seeing it, but I can't find the Water Fast on that site?) Oh NO - bromine in my magnesium oil? Drats....I thought that was a good way to get more magnesium in me.....

Once again - thank you so much for all of your help and suggestions. Lots to look at, so I will take what you've all told me and make changes!

Thank you!!!
