Guest guest Posted March 13, 2011 Report Share Posted March 13, 2011 I started Lugol's in December and by the time of my pacemaker check in January, I was showing brief episodes of both atrial tachycardia and ventricular tachycardia--only a few seconds at a time. I am guessing it is from the iodine, since I did not have this before. (Pacemaker was put in for tachy-brady syndrome caused because my brain sends the wrong signals to my heart--born with Arnold Chiari Malformation Type 1; spina bifida at C-1, T-??, and L-5; intracranial hypertension--the cause of the bradycardia.) The arrhythmias are not serious and do not require any additional treatment. I just would like to know how long this usually lasts? I am taking the celtic salt and all the companion nutrients. Since I started the iodine, I have also been able to completely wean off HC. I did lower my Armour Thyroid dose for a while because of high heart rates, but then the weight started pouring on... So I am easing back up on the Thyroid and noticing more arrhythmias again. Any ideas?? Lucinda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
