I just googled 'itchy skin' to see what came up. There are SSOOO many people with skin problems and I keep finding pockets of them that have Morgellon symptoms. Trouble is I register and drop the
bshell and then cant remember my log in details.
Anywho - here's a pocket that I've just signed up to, where this person is talking about the good effects of taking iodine internally to stop the itching and to help thyroid and hormone health:
"ON ADVICE FROM A BIOCHEMIST AT A PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOUNDING LAB I STARTED TAKING 4 DROPS DAILY OF LUGOLS IODINE (TOTALLING 1MG DAILY OF IODINE)-GUESS WHAT? THE ITCH HAS DRAMATICALLY SUBSIDED AND IS ABOUT 90% BETTER-NOW ONLY A VERY QUICK,TINY ITCH AFTER THE MORNING SHOWER AND A LITTLE ON MY ARMS FOR ABOUT 10MINS IN THE EVENING.I THINK THAT ONCE MY THYROID HAS SOAKED UP THE IODINE A BIT LONGER THIS PROBLEM WILL DISAPEAR FOR GOOD.MY ADVICE IS TO GIVE IT A TRY AS THYROID PROBLEMS ARE VERY MUCH MISDIAGNOSED AND THE BLOOD TESTS ARE NOT RELIABLE.I HAVE ALSO STARTED TAKING VIRGIN COCONUT OIL IN MY DIET AND PUTTING IT ON MY SKIN AS IT IS VERY GOOD FOR THE THYROID AND HELPS TO ESTABLISH PROPER T3/T4 HORMONE FUNCTION-START WITH 1 TABLESPOON DAILY AND BUILD UP TO 3.IT IS SO GOOD FOR YOU IN MANY OTHER WAYS TOO-LOOK ON THE WEB FOR MORE INFO.
HOPE THIS HELPS-GOOD LUCK TO ALL YOU ITCHY FOLK OUT THERE!" DIPEx Community - I'm itching too!
