Sorry. You should not take Iodine and vitamin C together. It should be respected just as with the use of Miracle-Mineral-Supplement . Vitamin C is the enemy of Iodine as well. Iodine is an oxidant.
"Iodine is an oxidizing agent. Vitamin C is a substance that is easily oxidized. When Vitamin C is added to water containing iodine, the reaction that occurs converts iodine to Iodide ion (I-) -- which no longer tastes like iodine. In fact, it is the same ion that appears in iodized salt."

"The iodine is reduced to iodide, and the vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is oxidized to dehydroascorbic acid. Iodide is an essential mineral, and dehydroascorbic acid is just as effective as a vitamin as the ascorbic acid form."

More?
"One way to determine the amount of vitamin C in food is to use a redox titration. The redox reaction is better than an acid-base titration since there are additional acids in a juice, but few of them interfere with the oxidation of ascorbic acid by iodine."

I don't trust the skin test with iodine painting either. When I was at high dose of iodine, it still took only a short while to disappear on my skin.
When I started Miracle-Mineral-Supplement last August, I stopped taking iodine altogether. I also had not been taking any vitamin C except in normal (but poor) diet since I started the iodine therapy February 2007. So, I have not taken any extra supplement of vitamin C for over a year now. Even today, I don't take any extra C supplement; except very occasionally. There is nutrition in diet; especially if you can find and buy local produce.
