Iodine, Selenium, HyperT questions - Help!

[Guest guest]

Hi, I'm hoping someone can help me by answering some questions for me.

I'm hyperthyroid and after doing a lot of reading I think that it's because I've

been taking Lugols for the last 18 months or so and am very likely deficient in

Selenium.

I've been reading this article

http://www.greenwillowtree.com/Page.bok?file=selenium.iodine.html and feel that

I've found my answer.

I raced out and bought a bag of Brazil nuts because I'm not going to be able to

get my usual range of supplements until after easter.

Me being me I had 4 brazil nuts on Sunday and a raw fudge made with brazil nuts

also that night and today - so quite a few nuts and possibly quite a bit of

selenium.

Today I've just felt horrid - everything is sore, my heart rate is up around 100

beats a minute when resting, my temperature is 37.8C and I've been crying since

I left work this afternoon.

What I realised at lunchtime is that two supps that I was taking have iodine in

them so I won't be taking them for a couple of weeks at least.

My question is anyone knows is how long should I wait after stopping iodine

before I start the Selenium (I'll be starting slow!).

I'd appreciate any help!

Thanks, Sue.
