Anyone here SOLEY on Iodine for thyroid health and not NTH?

Anyone here just taking iodine for thyroid health or any people who corrected former thyroid issues with iodine NOT ON THYROID hormones? I would love to here your story...I was on Armour for past 7 years but based on labs and speaking with Janie from STTM, we recently assessed that it's very likely that the underlying causes of my hypo have now resolved. Over past 4 months I went from 4+ grains down to 1/2 grain and about to go off completely. I had a RT3 issue that developed - I have never felt BETTER in years just being on 1/2 grain, I will go off completely soon but I am going to do the iodine loading test. I have been taking 2 drops of Lugol's 2% everyday. I take other supplements, and ever time I moved down an Armour dose....I keep losing weight finally after over a year.IS there anyone who had a similar experience or who takes Iodine for thyroid support and NOT thyroid medication?

He was dx'ed in about March 2007. He started on 37.5 mgs Iodoral and we didn't see much improvement. So after 6 mos we bumped him up to 50 mgs. He has continued on 50 mgs since. He whines if he doesn't have his Iodine - he can feel the difference. We eliminated his antibodies by the increase and supporting nutrients.

I have had similar results, over the past almost 2 years, have been able to

decrease from 180 mgs of Armour to 30, am in the process of weaning off also. I

do take a lot higher dosage of Lugol's and Iodoral, right now routinely taking

30 mgs daily.
