Would an iodine supplement help?
I still don't feel well (very tired and the most dreadful brain fog which has stopped me driving) and wondered how I would know if an iodine supplement might help? Any thoughts would be most appreciated. Latest Medichecks results - stopped taking b12 liquid 2 weeks before test. Taking Spatone, VitaminD

I coughed up a little blood last august and thinking that I could possibly have an eneurism, I was sent to A&E. An x-ray showed a shadow in the lower left lobe of the lung. Because I was fit and healthy in all other respects I was treated for pneumonia and discharged with antibiotics but with a follow-up

Hello I have recently visited a natural health practitioner specialising in kinesiology. Reputation locally appears strong. In addition to hypothyroidism I have real issues with haemorrhoids & I was hoping that this route could help with any underlying gut issues that may be contributing to this problem

High TSH (which keeps rising over the years) and consistently high T4 for 7 years with no major symptoms.
Hi, Over the last 7 years, my TSH has kept rising from around 5.88 and now it is at 11.9. My T4 has stayed consistently high at between 19 and 20 throughout this time. My antibodies test are normal with nearly non-existent antibodies and my T3 was normal in the middle of the range. All my other blood

NAC and Thyroid Antibodies
Currently hypothyroid, high TgAB, TPO and TSI normal. Am on 600mcg of levothyroxine across the week. Has anyone had success in reducing thyroid antibodies by taking NAC? What other supplements do you take to support thyroid health besides vit D, iron, B12, Folate? These are already under control

What to eat?
Before I was diagnosed with thyroiditis and hyper phase I would eat fish three times a week. I've stopped as cos is very high in iodine.....was I right to do so as I didn't get any advice from GP about diet.

types of salts and iodine
Edit: thank for all the responses. It looks like when the salt is iodised, it would be stated on the packaging. Himalayan, Celtic and sea salt contain iodine naturally whereas rock salt doesn’t. I use Bart’s rock salt and they confirmed it’s non iodised. hi, I Have Graves so should avoid iodine. Does

Question for thyroidectomized patients: iodine processing issues?`
Hi, it seems to me that if I eat a bit too much seafood, I see some adverse issues. I do not have a thyroid, and wonder - since the thyroid is by far the organ with the highest need for iodine... how does iodine get processed in the body of someone who does not have a thyroid? If you also lack a thyroid
