Godsend
For more than 10 years I suffered from Neuropathy and weakness in my arms, headaches, and TMJ. All of this started after I withdrew from SSRI Luvox on which I was for about 4 years. Doctors did not believe that it could be a result of SSRI withdrawal despite reports from numerous people facing similar problems as a result of the prolonged withdrawal lasting for years. I am a self-experimenter, and prior to starting iodine I experimented with several supplements, visits to functional medicine doctors, and also MDs. While I have benefited from them, nothing came close to this product which has truly been a game-changer. I had given up all hope and had accepted that this Neuropathy in my arms was going to stay with me for life. One of the orthopedic doctors was extremely passionate about just casually operating on BOTH my elbows in order to transpose my ulnar nerve, after labeling it as cubital tunnel syndrome. But I knew that surgery was not the solution. For headaches and TMJ I had tried several different things that modern medical science had to offer, for example, nightguard and CPAP machine. I still use CPAP machine. Fortunately, in my endless quest to search for solutions, I had come across Dr. Brownstein's videos on YouTube on how he fixed many of his patients' neurological problems. I started with iodoral 1 tablet of 12.5 mg and felt somewhat better. But it wasn't until I started taking Lugol's 2% that majority of Neuropathy in my arms went away. Otherwise, previously, it was not easy for me to bend my elbow for long, for example, while holding a phone in my hand while talking to someone. I had also started to experience Raynaud's like symptoms in fingertips. After taking this product even those have reduced considerably. My TMJ has completely gone!!! For 10 years I had been waking up with facial pain and jaw pain. I have had root canals because of the damage caused by TMJ. But it all went away overnight after my first day of taking this. It's unbelievable. I started with 2 drops and went up to 12 drops (= 30mg). This is a very high dose, and it is too early for me to say how I am going to react to the continued use of this product. I am going to titrate it down because I know this is way above the recommended daily dosage, and I have also noticed some insomnia with such a high dose. It has still just been less than a month and I will update on how I continue to feel taking this supplement
