It's interesting to note that people who are allergic to Shellfish are usually allergic to iodine as well. Perhaps it's not the iodine you're allergic to but a component of the iodine? Just a thought. Doris

In my old age, I have learned to "just say no" to tests I believe are too risky for me. In general I have found many medical personnel to be contemptuous of patient concerns re allergies, and some have even said to me they don't believe in iodine allergy, and I fear those types would use iodine in/on me while saying they won't. sol zeb caffe wrote: > sol, have you ever had a test with contrast dyes?

I choose not to have the test. -- The Silver List is a moderated forum for discussing Colloidal Silver.
