Iodine solution?!?! Making me vomit!!
I've been given iodine to take for 7 days prior to surgery, surgery is Monday so I've had 2 doses so far today! It's awful! Brown, nasty tasting stuff that leaves my mouth and throat burning! I was actually sick after the last dose! Does it have to be taken in liquid form?? Can I mix it with anything

Life or death... Or IVIG.
Thanks to you lovely people and great support group advice, I have my first IVIG INFUSION in two days in Portland, Oregon. I had FCR six years ago.... Cll/SLL Stage 4, Rai II. My FCR was stopped by the 5th month because I was so very toxic. Very aggressive FCR and I just never recovered. Always had

Confused re consultation with endo.

Is there link between long-term consumption of the oral contraception pill triggering grave disease?
Over 4 years a ago I was diagnosed with graves disease, it all started a couple of months after I went of the contraceptive pill for the first time in a decade. When I was diagnosed I went back on the Pill and have been on it ever since. In the subsequent 2 years I was on 2 types of anti thyroid medication

Iodine
I've come across conflicting info about iodine. Is it best not to supplement if you have hashimotos?

Help ... have felt so unwell since RAI treatment for Graves.
I previously felt very well although I had very high levels of T3 when I was first diagnosed but the block and replacement therapy for 8 years then the RAI have knocked the stuffing out of me. I have never been offered T3 but always felt something was missing. I ache all over, am depressed (diagnosed

Mineral mix
I find that each time I take my mineral mix ( Dr M ) I get a flare of painful neck and breasts, a dry throat, breathless feeling pain in muscles and not feeling right at all. I,m wondering if I have thyroiditis and if the iodine content in the mix is causing this.......anyone had similar?

Does RAI worsen T4 to T3 conversion?
I had Graves, then RAI in 1990, then hypo and on Levo, mostly 175mcg. Something changed in 2014, and I became very very ill. T4 at top of range, T3 at the bottom. I started T3 in 2016, and wow my life came back. Does anyone know how much RAI affects T4 to T3 conversion? The Endo told me at the time of

Homeopathic treatment
I have been prescribed a homeopathic treatment by my GP called arsenicum album after going to see him about the pain I have in my arms and legs, which I think is due to me being under replaced with thyroxin following RAI. I had no idea what this treatment was so decided to look it up. It says it's for
