At the risk of sounding ignorant, is SSKI - potassium iodide?

He actually stated that it could make thyroid problems worse. He says SSKI is the one to use. dee On 2 Nov 2009, at 15:07, Lisa wrote: Hi All, I just received word from my endocrinologist this morning that I have antibodies in my blood that's attacking my thyroid. He stated: autoimmune thyroid disease. At this point in time we're not sure whether I have Graves disease or Hashimoto's because my numbers (T3, T4 etc.) have been up and down within the last several months (and several blood tests). We're waiting for 6-7 weeks to go by to test again with my not taking any supplements (including Lugol's and kelp which he believes may be the culprit as far as going back and forth).
