Guest guest Posted June 21, 2008 Report Share Posted June 21, 2008  I don't see why you can't put it in alkaline water with vinegar if you want. Steph Re: Palpitations Thanks Kathy. I'm actually well into menopause at 62 yoa (partial hysterectomy at 34 yoa and early menopause around 38 yoa). What do you advise re taking thyroxine? I'm taking 100 mcg Mon/Wed/Fri and 50 mcg the remaining days. My situation is not my doc's fault. I never go to see her as she's miles away and I won't go to anyone else, so she depends on me getting tests (which she sends paperwork for) and then she writes RX or advises what I might consider doing. She accepts me as the authority in my own life and I get slack due to how ill I feel. I've got more tests lined up to do now and 24 hour adrenal is one of them.The palpitations stopped when I stopped the Iodoral but I do want to get back to it so I'm hoping I can find out the reason they are causing the palps. I was also doing the salt loading in the hope I could release bromines/fluorines before going back to iodine. I continued with the Celtic Salt and Vit C after stopping the iodine but that ended up causing intolerable pain in hiatus hernia, which hadn't been active since starting low carb diet over 10 years ago! It was probably killing some pathogen but it certainly needs to be gentler!Basal temp today 35.8 (well it's not really basal as I take it once I'm up and sitting at my computer. It could be lower if I took it in bed. I'm just not conscious enough to do that though. It's all so difficult to work out!Thanks Kathy....... ......LD Re: Palpitations Posted by: "kathy" alikat709 (DOT) com alikat709 Tue Jun 10, 2008 8:31 pm (PDT) LD, heres the scoop on your labs: Free t4 (15.9-9.0)/ (19.0-9.0)*100 = 60%Free t3 (4.1 - 2.6)/(6.0-2. 6)*100 = 44%Optimal Ft3 and Ft4 levels for a childbearing age female is 60 to 80 % of the range,your ft's should be within 10% of each other for balance. your tsh is also higher than the new lower standard of .03-3.0. kathy> I'm adding my test results here again for Kathy:> > S Free T4: 15.0 = Units: pmol/L -- Range (9.0-19.0)> S Free T3: 4.1 = Units: pmol/L -- Range (2.6-6.0)> S TSH: 3.51 = Units: mU/L -- Range (0.30-5.00)> > My basal temp is always low.

Guest guest Posted December 13, 2008 Report Share Posted December 13, 2008 I went to the pharmacy yesterday. They put some Luguls in a small eye dropper bottle (very small) and charged me $20.00, doesn't that sound like a lot? One drop eqauls 6.5mg. Not sure they knew what they were doing.

Guest guest Posted December 13, 2008 Report Share Posted December 13, 2008 No that is about right for today's cost since the DEA restrictions were put on. That is the 5% solution which is the strongest you can sell. With a prescription I got 10 oz of Lugol's for $35 from my local Compounding Pharmacy. Steph lugols I went to the pharmacy yesterday. They put some Luguls in a small eye dropper bottle (very small) and charged me $20.00, doesn't that sound like a lot? One drop eqauls 6.5mg. Not sure they knew what they were doing.

Guest guest Posted June 28, 2009 Report Share Posted June 28, 2009 25 mgs is the maintenance dose of Iodoral. That being said I think you would be surprised at what you are toxic with. Have you considered doing a loading test with bromide levels? That may give you some answers. I would take a full spectrum digestive enzyme for your issues. Steph Lugols I am taking two Iodorals in the morning, 2 x 12.5mg, for cleansing. Ive thought about taking Lugols, thinking it will help clean up my bowel system, and get rid of the mucous and such. Im not fat, but I do have a big belly, like maybe loads of candida down there - or something. I do have indigestion now and then. Ive thought about buying some Lugols and drinking some of it but the only kind I can find is 1 or 2 percent. Is this enough, will this work? I don't have any major illness, but Im doing this for prevention and detoxing. Ive been taking Iodoral for about 2 months. Thanks for you comments.
