selenium reaction - chest pain,

[Guest guest]

I just took 100 mcg selenium in form of L-Selenomethionine last night and had a

reaction to it. It made me very stimulated and had bad insomnia, could not fall

asleep all night and stayed awake almost all day today. I've been getting some

mild chest pain at random intervals that's short lasting but concerns me as I

never have this.

I haven't taken selenium in over a year(I did take 200mcg everyday for 6-12

months a while back), except for one time six months I ago I tried it and had a

reaction that was similar to this, but I can't remember very well.

What do you think this is from? Should I discontinue it or keep taking it?

Could it be some kind of thyroid dump or something that I just need to tolerate

and work through? I am confused and a little concerned, especially about the

chest pain.

I'm not on any thyroid meds. I take 10mg Slow release HC/day for adrenal

fatigue.

Thanks,
