Re: iodine - reasons for bad response?

[Guest guest]

Iodine is not good for people with Hashi's. The reason being is that Iodine

stimulates the gland which in turn stimulates the antibodies to attack it

further. What you might feel from it is MORE hypo and even swelling in the neck

or fever like with any Hashi's attack.

Hmm, interesting, thanks. I don't know if it's Hashi's yet or not.

Maybe next week. That was part of yesterday's draw.

if you have hashi stay away from iodine. You want to suppress your thyroid not

stimulate

iodine - reasons for bad response?

Hi, folks,

I'm aware that some people have good results when adding iodine to

their diet and some have bad results. Does anyone know the whys of

the bad results? I am considering trying it, mostly because I do

not cook with salt and eat cleanly enough that I probably don't get

a whole lot of dietarr iodine.

What would a bad result feel like? What causes it?

Thanks!

Could be or it could just be plain ole flu. It is serious flu season right now

so keep in mind when you are adjusting dosages that you may feel bad with this

in your area. I have to say with getting my meds up where I am CLOSE to

optimized, I am SO much less prone to getting flus and bronchitis and pneumonia!

There for the last few years before I went to self medicating when I was still

on Synthroid, I was getting Bronchitis 3-5 times a year and Pneumonia once or

twice a year and flus every one that came around I got! I have had the flu once

in the last 2 years and have not had pneumonia or Bronchitis in over 5 years! I

thought my lungs were permanently damaged from both smoking & my work breathing

dog dander & hair all the time and all it was was hypo!

Iodine can cause an auto-immune flare up. It can cause you to really

loose energy. This is what it does to me. It just saps me.

Shammon on thyroid.about.com has a similar reaction. Also, with me,

it will cause soreness and swelling in my thyroid. This you don't

want, as damage is being caused to the gland. If you have an auto-

immune condition in which antibodies attack protiens that have

iodine attached to them, then it will cause an auto-immune attack of

whatever iodine protein combo the antibodies are sensitive to. It

could be in the body or in the thyroid gland itself or both. Auto-

immune thyroid disease has high rates of antibody sensitivity to

iodine complexies in the thyroid and that is the most common source

of attack.

Some people are also allergic to iodine.

same here, valerie. for over 10 years...i'd be at the doc about every 3

months for a sinus infection or respiratory infection. since starting armour

over

a year ago, I have caught one cold from my husband. he had it bad...i had it

just mildly.

and also like you, I thought my lungs were permanently damaged. i had a

chronic cough and also it felt like fluid in my chest/lungs all the time. i

thought it was from years of smoking. WRONG. it was fluid from hypo...and it

felt

like i was drowning all the time.

dang doctors. i have taken so many antibiotics that i didn't need..and

prednisone too.

Gheez I guess is right about me getting tested. I am on this board

for my 20 yr old son with Autism that I suspect has thyroid issues. Reading

below tho is like reading about myself. I never had sinus problems,

migraines yes. 5 years ago I was at the dr every 2-3 months even thru the

winter with sinus problems until they put me on Allergy medications. This

past October I got Bronchitus which really knocked me on my rear. It took

forever to get over, but I still have a constant loose cough in my throat

that just wont go away. Eileen
