Re: 125 mgs of Iodoral - Day 6 with issues

, I really benefit from epsom salts soaks. If I don't feel like getting in the tub, I just soak my feet and legs, or even just my hands. Really relaxing, and helps me detox, too. You probably already know about this, but I thought maybe someone else might benefit, if not you.-- Warmest Regards,Robin Little125 mgs of Iodoral - Day 6 with issuesPosted by: "ladybugsandbees" ladybugsandbees@... stephanie_a_buistTue Sep 23, 2008 5:19 pm (PDT)I try to be transparent about my journey through all this holistic treatment. So I decided I needed to shar

e with you what has happened to me today. This allows you to know that I do understand when those of you experience issues when taking supplements as well.Six days ago I started taking 125 mgs of Iodoral. I had been on 100 mgs since last October but due to my continued high bromide levels Dr. B felt I would improve by increasing so I did. I have done OK and thought that this would be no problem but knew that my increase from 50 to 100 hit me at day 8. Well, I didn't make that this time. This afternoon while fixing supper I began to experience anxiety. I couldn't figure out why as I have had no gluten for several days and there was no reason for me to be upset. I was cutting up zucchini and onions. Then it hit me. I wonder how long it has been that I have been on 125 mgs? I went to look and there was my answer. The last two days my urine has smelled like sulfur which is new for me as normally it gets cloudy. So now I am trying to figure out what to do to get my body calmed down. I think a day off from the Iodoral is in order, along with my Metagenics Ultra Clear plus pH to get my liver happy again. It's hard to know if it is liver or adrenals for me when I get these so I hit both. I will also take in some more Celtic salt and increase my Vit C / Mg. So that's my update on how I am doing with my iodine increase. We'll keep plugging on to get that bromide out!!!

I like bentonite and epsom salt soaks. It really does seem to settle

the body down. I had migraines for almost every day in September and

part of August until had one acupuncture treatment that realigned my

meridians and ended those migraines. I have FM and been rear ended

twice in past 4 years so don't think related to iodine. Whoee. Also

finally adding Vitamin C as figure that will help body handle toxins

better. Here's to better health!Pam

With bromide we need to knock it off the receptors to get it into the blood

stream. That is what iodine does. Adding more iodine gives more iodine to

more receptors to knock it off. It will sit there until displaced by

iodine.

I keep reading about soaking in epsom salts. I keep thinking I need to

get some.

Will someone please remind me to put them on the shopping list? TIA,

I am taking my sea salt through out the day. I mix 1 tsp of salt in a

quart of water and drink it all day (in the summer I doubled everything). I

like the taste. Plus I drink a couple of glasses of unsalted water.

Would it be better for me if I did the salt loading method & took the

salt all at once followed by plain water?

I take 50 mg Iodoral.

Salt loading is only if you have issues with taking iodoral. Are you having

detox symptoms?

yes, I am having several of the symptoms. I do feel better when I just drink

my salted water throughout the day, but I wonder if the salt would be even

more effective if I did the salt loading.
