Cheryl,For the life of me, I can't find the other sites I was on! Here is one (not sure if it's that reputable). I am going to cut the iodine back to every other day just to see if I notice a difference. I'll keep you posted!http://www.health911.com/thyroid- Kirk-To: mb12 valtrex From: mossyforrest@...Date: Mon, 28 Feb 2011 01:34:20 +0000Subject: Re: Question for Cheryl

This is sooo interesting because i have wanted to post and ask about dilated pupils and never did. I wondered if others have seen this. has had huge - always dilated pupils his entire life. Until a few days ago. And it comes at the same time that i increased his dosage. The first time i saw them normal. Ever. So i made it a point to look alot. And they arent dilated like they were. Still not pinpoints if you shine a light in them but not saucers anymore.

I had thought the saucers were a PANDAS thing or perhaps neurotransmitter imbalance. Never have known the answer. Probably because doctors that are suppose to know (Neurolgist/Neuro Psych) told me it was part of autism and there have always been so many more seemingly more important problems that i never really studied it.

Can you provide the link you found? When i google the same i dont find an iodine as a cause link.

You may be getting a double whammy effect with both the Low Oxalate diet and adding iodine. Because i think what the LOD does is help the body utilize the iodine better. And get rid of oxalate, which also makes the body use the iodine better. Just like getting rid of Fluoride and Bromide makes the body use the iodine better. Just like removing goitrogen high foods makes the body utilize it better.

So you have essentially added 2 areas that would increase the body's available iodine. I dont have enough experience with the LOD yet to know for sure, just want i am concluding. Still waiting for someone to say i have it wrong, if i do! So with all this additional iodine available you are going to have alot of die off. And the

If you are concerned, lower the dosage or stop the iodine totally to see what happens. Are you using all the companion supplements including natural salt?

And it still freaks me out a bit. We read the inaccurate and unfounded information that scares us and makes us question our judgement. Rest assured there are alot of people been using it for years and using it with their kids. Some Dans! are now using it. The real truth is coming out, but there is still alot of misinformation. Same with most biomed.

I have been doing one drop per day of lugols 2%. Is it at all possible that this could be too much for them? I'll be honest - it kind of freaks me out. I realize the amount I'm giving them is extremely small, and the article I read did state that it is uncommon to overdose on iodine But it's odd that all of a sudden, they both have dilated pupils when the only thing I've really changed recently is adding the iodine. Just wanted to get your thoughts on this. Thanks.
