Did I take too much or is this detox?

So I started taking Iodine the other day, and since I bought the wrong kind at first (it only has 150 mcg combined in 3 drops) I am trying to use more of that while I'm waiting for some Lugol's I ordered. I'd say I'm taking about 5 mg a day by using lots of drops.

For the first few days I felt pretty good actually, more calm and like I could kind of think again, and also did not have cold hands for the first time in a while.

Now after about a week of taking it, within the next twenty minutes of taking it and lasting a few hours, I feel really hot, uncomfortably hot. Is this some kind of detox symptom? Or am I getting too much Iodine to my thyroid and making it go hyper?

I take selenium 200 mcg and a b vitamin complex too for companion nutrients. Tweet
