 All i know is that i didn't have white spots until i did the high iodine to help my thyroid condition. All it did for me was give me these white spots.

Do you think mine could be a fungal infection, i've had them for a year or two now. I wish there was a way of establishing if it is definately vitiligo. I don't go to doctors, so i don't know how to find out for sure.

You can treat it as a fungal infection and see if it clears up. Won't hurt anything. I would go with thyme oil diulted in olive oil for application to the site. Blend 40 drops of thyme oil in to the olive oil.

Is it definately an autoimmune issue, why can't it be simply lack of nutrients that make the pigment.

Because the autoantibodies are causing destruction of the melanocytes that produce the melanin. So even with the nutrients the melanin is not going to be produced.
