Iodine Supplementation While Breastfeeding


Hi, I've been lurking around on this forum from time to time for years. But recently I've been here searching the Iodine forums trying to find answers to my questions. A little background: I'm 29, I have 4 kids, all born and home and all of them are breastfed and all are unvaccinated except the first one who had one MMR vaccine (and subsequently developed Langerhan's Cell histiocytosis 3 years later- and though I cannot prove it was the cause I'm pretty dang sure). We are a dairy free/grain free/sugar free household drinking RO water that is remineralized, mostly organic diet. Prior to conceiving my last baby I was pretty tired all the time and after conception It only got worse. My 4th baby was born 8 weeks ago, totally uncomplicated home birth, though I did have pregnancy induced thrombocytopenia starting around 32 weeks.

So that's the background, what's brought me here is that about 2 years ago I found a pecan sized (in the shell) lump in my breast which the VA has been monitoring every 6-8 months, they've said it's a benign andeoma. I concur as it seems to vary in size throughout the month. I was reminded that it was there when they called to tell me I had an appointment today. It made me start thinking about how if my body had all the things it needed that it would probably dissolve, and take care of itself, so I started googling and I found the link between breast lumps and Iodine deficiency. That was Thursday 6/2/16. On Thursday I started taking the Lugol's at 50mg, and 200 micrograms of selenomethionine (Oddly, I've had them in my house for awhile, I think I bought them after Fukushima) I was already taking 5,000mg of vitamin C, and Trace Mineral's Liquid Cal/Mag with D3 and Zinc. I've had zero detox symptoms. What I have had is energy! I feel like a human being again, and it almost makes me want to cry. I'd been so tired and so brain fogged for so long I forgot what normal felt like (my thyroid tests have always been norma). Additionally, when I went to have the ultrasound on my breast today 6/7/16 the lump had shrunk! Not significantly, but enough to be palpably different to me and to show up on the ultrasound as smaller.

My concern comes with breastfeeding, and I don't know why I didn't consider this three days ago, as I'm a student midwife and I never take things while breastfeeding without first discerning all that I can about safety. I read Wombat's infant was diagnosed with hypothyroidism and I do not want to induce it in my little guy. I read all of Grizz's google docs about Iodine and pregnancy and breastfeeding, but I'm not finding anything definitive. I did read an article (I did consider the source) on that had me a little concerned. However, I don't want to stop taking the iodine because I feel so good! But obviously, I want to ensure the health and safety of my baby comes first. I'm not really concerned about the breast lump, and I can certainly wait until I'm done nursing to take care of that. I'm more concerned about the energy crisis I was experiencing prior to starting the Iodine.

Any information available would be excellent.
