Should i quit the iodine?

So i started supplementing with Iodine because i have a pretty strong suspicion that im hyperthyroid. Almost immediately after my first dose my nose started running and had to blow my nose constantly which resulted in a cold sore in my nose. I took the recommended dose that the bottle suggested. I felt pretty energetic the first few days despite the runny nose and cold sore but i im not sleeping very well. I wake up after 4-5 hours of sleep and having anxiety and heart palpitations which i also had before i started iodine. I also seem to get very hot and sweat more than usual.

So am i making myself more hyperthyroid, should i quit the Iodine or continue the protocol?

btw i am also taking the co supplements. Tweet
