Iodine is kinda controversial in AT and I don't think it would be good for Graves but I don't know. :-\If it were me, I'd be completely willing to give it a shot but scared with the kiddos.

have you tried iodine?

Sigh. Got back labs for both kids today. Gabi's still going strong with her dx (TPO antibodies high)and her TSH is almost indetectable (meaning her thyroid is going berzerk)AND my son now is making antibodies to his thyroid. WTF.I thought we were two steps forward one step back but now it feels like one step forward two steps back !!!!!!!!!I don't know that there is anything that can be done. Anyone else out there going thru this?Toni

Yes probably. Recv'd many doses of mercury. We are going to begin AC chelation

in the coming months. We had her on selenium, I ran out, prob need her back on

it.

I am getting my amalgams out mar 26 I hope, look forward for joining her in the

ac chelation as well.

Lab corp, has a test to rule out Graves Disease.

Also if you are supplementing iodine you may want to stop, as the thyroid gland

could be holding on to iodine and that can contribute to to Hyper thyroid.

My son just went thru this ordeal and finally it is resolved, after using Blood

pressure meds

to lower his heart rate, which was racing, and a anti thyroid med to lower the

T3/ T4

levels. It was due to, having too much iodine in his thyroid gland.

Alot of DR's think its okay to do iodine loading, but we found out the hard way,

it

can be VERY DANGEROUS!

While going thru this, its also important to feed your child frequent healthy

meals, and lots of liquids as this can cause extreme wt loss and many other

things could go severely wrong.

Unfortunately, we may be having a problem now with the iodine trnasdermal we are using...normally it helps for hypothyroid from what I have been told but my son's tsh has be rising since we started in dec. I am also noticing that I am feeling more hypothroid too (i take thyroxine for hashimotos hypothyroid)...but this could also be from me forgetting to take my pills regularly:)...anyway, we are stopping the iodine now and will be doing more labs in a couple weeks....-- Sent from my Palm Pre

can you tell me what iodine you were using ? were you supplementing any? or was your son just high on iodine without any supplement?

thanks,

channa
