>>>"I am also thinking of taking Lugol because I have Hashimoto, but read conflicting information about Iodine with auto immune thyroiditis.
All thyroid problems are caused primarily by Iodine deficiency. You should start with all the Iodine co-supplements for the first month, then start adding Lugols at a TINY dosage of 1 drop per week in a glass of water, then slowly titrate up to 50mg a day over 6 months. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1IzFKo-r2-Nn8_z0KUrOhHdlanzSuhkuV3QO03XF6YTY/edit#
Monitor your body temp to guage progress. You likely suffer from lower than normal body temp.
>>>"You also said that you used SSKI for your lungs. Do you think it is important to try?"
Lugols includes SSKI and with what I know about CS, I suggest holding off on SSKI until we see how you respond, and if SSKI is needed after everything else you are doing.
