Linda,
Thank you so much for the information. I have looked into NAET, never heard of BioSET, but I definitely will. I understand all too well the mental and emotional feelings, you had. I've had them too. I've been too busy just trying to 1) not use steriods, and 2) not check out during the past 14 months that I haven't had much left in the way of energy and resources to really delve into root causes that much. I have been using EFT to clear out some old stuff that is stressful. And I think that EFT can be used to deal with allergies also, but I haven't gotten that far yet. It has been a very, very long 14 months. And it hit me like a ton of bricks to have such an overwhelming and long-lasting skin reaction after 19 years of thinking that everything was pretty much under control except for the odd hive here and there. I just simply was not in any way prepared. Having become a CS maker and user, and also becoming a student of homeopathy, and going back to my beginnings re nutrition and herbs, I was determined NOT to go the steroid route. I have had to resort to antihistamines, though. I had already been using CS to try to eliminate intestinal candida, and had also become a devotee of DMSO and MSM. Since the rash finally decreased in area and severity, I have been able to start using a combination of CS and DMSO on it. Garnet, I believe, is who told me about using aloe vera juice/gel to "pretreat" the skin where the CS/DMSO will be applied to reduce the burning and stinging of the DMSO. That has allowed me to use it. I'm very sensitive to DMSO, it burns me like crazy for a long time after application. However, by reducing the concentration to about 25% or less of DMSO, and using the aloe first, I have been able to tolerate it with only discomfort. Two things about using CS/DSMO for eczema----I read that eczema sufferers are often "colonized" with staphlococcus, so the CS should help that, and the second is that Garnet posted that the burning from DMSO is histamine release. Using the CS/DMSO seems to have resulted in a remission at last (just in the last 2-3 weeks). Gotta say though that it was already at a much lower level----at the worst, there is no way at all, even with all the aloe in the world, that application of even 1% of DMSO would have been possible, I tried once or twice, and thought I was going to die of the pain. I should also say that in recent weeks I have about tripled my daily intake of oral CS, so probably that is helping also. If anyone wonders why it took me so long, I've only recently discovered the possible staph connection and found new info on iodine containing foods that preivously I didn't know were high iodine, such as turkey and asparagus.

Paula,

Have you considered doing some sort of biomeridian type treatment like NAET
or BioSET for your iodine allergy? I've had a number of allergies eliminated
with BioSET treatments.
