Re: Getting worse with more Iodine

January 19, 2011

Laurie -

Are you treating something particular with the iodine? Or ... what other issues do you have/what medications are you taking? Could be thyroid related - needing to tweak thyroid meds. Or possibly adrenals.

Hi Everyone,I have been following this group for sometime now and have been doing the protocol as well for several months. I have been slowly increasing my Lugol's and went up to 15 drops yesterday (2.55% solution). I have been taking all of the companion supplements and the celtic sea salt, but gradually these symptoms have appeared: hair feels much thinner and I am soooo cold (to the bone) and cannot warm myself. I know that I live in Ohio and it is very cold here but it is like cold inside my body (that is the best way I can describe it) and I had such a hard time falling asleep last night because of it. The normal achiness in my neck has gotten so much worse---I can hardly stand it and my whole body hurts especially in the morning.

I have read over the Bromide detox symptoms and these are not on there. It seems that from everything that I have read on here that these are the very symptoms that should be improving with treatment, not getting worse.

Please help because I am ready to stop, I just cannot be like this anymore.Thank you,Laurie------------------------------------All off topic posts should go to the IodineOT group IodineOT/

I am not currently on any meds. I have suspected thyroid for awhile now due to

my other symptoms (weight gain, unable to lose it, tiredness, neck ache) and was

even seen by a alt. doc a few years ago who put me on Armour. I didn't really

feel better on it though. She mentioned Hashimoto's at the time, but I didn't

go back to her. I was working with an herbalist instead, but that hasn't seemed

to help either. I just finished reading the Adrenal Fatigue book and I

definitely have moderate to severe symptoms. I was trying to do this on my own

because we have terrible insurance and little extra money. Not sure what to do

at this point....

Thanks,

Laurie

Maybe even try taking gluten products out of your diet, wheat, barley and rye. I lost 60 pounds. I also take Idoral the companion supplements. I will admit I have taken a 3 month break from the Iodoral only because the electric bill has doubled since colder weather has hit and everything in my apartment is electric. But since I have been doing this I have been feeling better. I have just weaned myself off of morphine that I was on for a little over 15 years do to AS and 3 botched up spine surgeries. I had a prothesis put in to take place of my L5 S1. Talk about pain. At that time I was wishing for death. Now I'm going through the roller coaster ride of withdrawals symptoms but have been blessed with support from my groups, family and friends.I also will never eat out again and if I do I hit the

salad bar. No more processed anything or artificial anything. I believe that the canned and boxed foods are nothing but poisoning us causing cancers and diseases.My belief is God did not intend to make our bodies to put that crap into us and also a good book to read to understand this is called The Makers Diet by Jordans Rubin. It was a New York Times Best Seller and when you read it it does make sense.I hope this helps you out in a small way. You need to do what is right for you but every little bit of information that you can retain will help you in making your decisions for you. And also celiac's disease is on the rise. 1 out of 130 people ar dx every year and it is on the rise because of the awareness and to understand why has something to do with our bodies not evolved to digest the long protein chain the gluten has. Read read and read more. from IllinoisFrom: Laurie K <jlkowalski2@...>iodine Sent: Wed, January 19, 2011 11:50:50 AMSubject: Re: Getting worse with more Iodine
