I am sorry to hear i would have to reread the thread again ....bad memmory... you say you are on a diet what kind? , on a diet when sick is pretty bad
-------------------
Edit
i actually advice to take Iodine in the thread do not do that i have no idea what is going on . One theory you take Iodine to much, your body responds to that with taking more Iodine your thyroid takes more iodine and slowly needs more iodine then you shut the whole system down by not taking iodine anymore ?
