a bit of help with iodine please
hi everyone,
I read a lot of info on this forum but I've only posted once because I am not very confident with my English and because I thought I could manage on my own but I was wrong
Here is my story:I've been taking
Iodine for the past three months and I upped the dosage to 150mg now(for the past one month and a half). I started
Iodine for hair loss but my hair is not getting any better on iodine, actually it's getting worse and my eyebrows are falling out.
I took the companion supplements (3000MG vitC, magnesium, selenium-the yeast selenium but today just started the selenomethionine, some b-complex vits, recently started Niacin-the flushing version but it doesn't bother me-,also take some vit D and multiminerals)
My nails are also more brittle than before and I can't grow them long anymore.
I didn't really do the salt loading because I didn't really have side effects apart from some bloating and acne.
I generally eat well(not always organic but fruits and veggies and no sodas, no saturated fats,no backery products for years. I used to eat bread though untill recently.
More than half of my life I've eaten really organic and drank really pure water(no treated at all.
I am 26 years, female. I am 160
cm and 46kg but I have some hypothyroid symptoms like cold hands and feet,bad intolerance to cold, feel tired(more depressed than tired and it makes me sluggish) and I am very depressed because of my hair loss, so depressed that I even had thoughts of suicide at some point.
The worst thing is that people think I am paranoia (including my parents and my boyfriend-who works in a pharmacy). I had a thyroid test(only TSH) done and it was 3.8(the maximum normal was 4.2 I think). Now I am due to repeat it in about 1 week time. Should I stop
Iodine 24 hours previous to the test?I
And are all these symptoms (hair loss, eyebrows loss, brittle nails)bromine detox? Has anyone or their patients went through it and the hair grew back?
Oh I so much need to hear that it did grow back.
For sure I am not allergic to iodine since I can take 150-160 mg without any problem(maybe even more-I haven't tried).
Oh and there is the itching in my head( yesterday I itched till I had blood under my nails, today I cut my nails cause I will hurt myself otherwise)
Please write an word anything and even if I would like to hear positive things, I am ready to take anything.
many many many thanks already for all the posts on this forum
