Re: RAI & Iodoroal?/ with HPTH issues

January 27, 2011

Yes, it is due to both removal (2) and possible damage (2) during surgery almost

two years ago. I've been struggling every since to get it right. I'm active in

the HPTH group and have learned lots since, including using Iodoral 50 instead

of 12.5 as the doc wanted!

Of course I take calcitroil, Ca+ & Mg+. But I am struggling a great deal with a

sinking Vit D 1,25 level. My Ca+ level is OK though. I ma checked very

regularly. It is way below where it should be and I believe it is directly

related to the HPTH. I believe I may have an absorption problem. I have

several allergy tests, including the finger stick most recently and now am on a

fairly conservative low carb , no sugar diet.

Any suggestions, ideas, etc would be most welcomed! I am very open to using

nutrients and supplements. Since I have two paras left, I would love to find a

way to " challenge " them to see if they could wake up again and get back to

functioning. My ENDO seems to think they won't because I have had several very

low CA+ levels and they did not kick in at those times. BUT I think they could

be just suppressed by the calcitroil and so they are " sleeping " and have no need

to do anything but lay there. There was one woman on the HPTH list who worked

with a doctor at Mayo Clinic. With the use of about 15 supplements she was able

to get her paras to restart after about 15 years of being dormant. That gives

me great hope still!

Thanks again for any ideas on this issue....

Sincerely,

Michele

how low the scan doses are. I have done 4 of them. It's still radioactive

iodine. I-123 with a half life of 36 hours. You radiate all around you. They

tell you its no big deal but it is. You cannot ingest radiation and expect good

results. It's just not possible.
