Kim,
Thank you for all the links. I only did the iodine test the one time and I promise, I am not going to do it again or use it to increase my iodine. I just wanted some more proof for the doctor to at least listen to me.

This week, not only did I find out that my son Joe's thyroid has shut down, I also found out that my dad in on thyroid meds too. Starting to sound like a family thing, huh?

We urge all doctors to take time to listen to your patients.. don't "isolate" symptoms but look at the whole spectrum. If a patient tells you s/he feels as if s/he's falling apart and "nothing seems to be working properly", chances are s/he's right!
