mrsbugzy: Thank you for your reply. The only major digestive issue that I have is that I am very lactose intolerant. Since dairy is a good source of iodine, that's one reason I don't get enough. I...
I eat eggs, but not in a quantity sufficient to give me my daily iodine requirements. I don't eat bread, and I'm not sure that it's fortified with iodine anymore. Ironically, part of the reason I...
Thank you for the information. I will look through it tomorrow. My doctor did test me for an autoimmune disease, but I don't recall him mentioning which one. I don't know if there is more than one. I...
After posting this topic, it occurred to me to check my iodine consumption. I don't use table salt, and I rarely eat fish. My current multi-vitamin does not contain any iodine. Neither do any of my...
This might be a strange question. I have a rather advanced case of Lyme disease which may be causing these problems, but I thought I'd check with people who are familiar with thyroid problems. I have...
I took a comprehensive adrenal test less than 2 months ago, and they were fine. None of the adrenal supplements I've taken have ever done any good. I'm overdue for a thyroid test. The last test I...
Have you discussed this with your doctor? This sounds dangerous. The safe upper limit for magnesium supplementation is supposed to be 350mg. You can tolerate a lot more magnesium than that from...

I have been having a major problem since a year ago. I have become completely intolerant to exercise. I feel fine while I'm doing the exercise, but when I stop, I feel very sick. The sickness can...
Curcumin is supposed to kill the infection too, but I was able to tolerate it enough to try it more than a few weeks. I've heard of Samento, but I'm not sure how effective it is. My reactions are...
Ha! Ha! Yeah, some sort of warning would have been nice! Even with the prescription medications I've taken, I've had side effects that aren't listed in the warnings that the pharmacy provides. I've...
My doctor is aware of what I'm taking because he's the one who prescribed the herbal medications to me. I looked up any possible side effects of the herbals before I took them, but every document I...
I just found out that one of my other herbal supplements that I'm still on may also be causing problems with my blood sugar. I mention this so that other people are aware that this can be a problem....
I have some of those gel packs for running. I'm going to keep them handy when I start exercising again. I was curious about OJ because people mention it specifically instead of just saying to drink...
