> Ever since I started this I have felt awful. Throat fullness/tightness, headache, fatigue dizziness & nausea. Anyone else have this problem?
Iodine alone without cofactors can make for an unpleasant experience, what you're experiencing isn't unusual.
I have a few suggestions, but I do not know what is in your chaste berry supplement and multivitamin so be sure to check them for selenium/selenomethionine so you don't take too much.
300-600mg magnesium (malate and taurate are good ones)
100mg B2 riboflavin twice a day (the yellow component of a b-complex)
500mg niacin twice a day (use inositol hexanicotinate, usually called "no flush" niacin, 500mg of true B3/niacinamide/nicotinic acid will ruin your day)
200mcg selenomethionine (be sure to check the multivitamin and other supplement for this, you don't want more than 400mcg in a day)
1,000mg Vitamin C (3 times a day)
1/2 tsp Celtic sea salt (Redmond Real salt works too)
I believe these will help you see a welcome improvement, this is a great baseline to start out with.
More info available in [Iodine by David Brownstein M.D.] and [The Iodine Crisis by Lynne Farrow]
Quick links:
[Magnesium malate]
[B2/B3 cofactors]
[Selenomethionine]
[Vitamin C]
[Celtic sea salt]
[12.5mg iodine](what you're taking now is probably great, though the books recommend 50mg)

•Izabella Wentz, she's extremely helpful to anyone looking to reverse Hashimoto's. I highly recommend her first book. The second I haven't read yet but I've heard good things about.
•Speaking of which, she has a good article about iodine. I know it works for some people, but it does not work for everyone, sometimes making things worse. People should be really careful about supplementing it.
•The problem with gluten. 1, [2] (https://chriskresser.com/the-gluten-thyroid-connection/). There's whole books about diet and Hashimoto's, but if you had no idea gluten is very bad for your thyroid, this is a place to start.
•I know some people here are vegetarians, and if it's working for you then great, but please be careful about it and monitor your vitamin and mineral levels. Hashi patients are very prone to deficiencies, and excluding animal products from your diet could make it worse.1, 2, 3
Ever since my hashi got bad caffeine causes me to get super sick but I LOVE coffee. The only thing I’ve found close is Cafix. It’s pretty amazingly close.
They sell it at my local Whole Foods but the label’s red.

Mio is that liquid you squeeze into water to flavor it. The mixture tastes like salt water (because it's salt water) and it's hard to get down, so the mio makes it taste more like gatorade. They make sugar free gatorade but it's way less expensive to make your own.
The lite salt has potassium. The mixture I use for ketoade is based on how much potassium and sodium I need while on keto combined with what my normal diet gives me, so you can always do your own calculations and do less lite salt or salt if you make your own. I just find that ketoade is the best tasting way to get enough of those electrolytes in a day. Drinking broth makes me gag.
Another situation people with Hashis deal with is inflammation. The link is unclear but many people find foods like gluten can cause inflammation in the body. If your gut has inflammation it can push upward on your lungs.
It's mentioned in this book:
Living Well with Hypothyroidism: What Your Doctor Doesn't Tell You... That You Need to Know: What Your Doctor Doesn't Tell You...that (Living Well (Collins)) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000FCJZ36/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_rqc4Cb0CTQGSW
I've been reading this book, Your Healthy Pregnancy with Thyroid Disease and although it does mention the link, it also outlines strategies to reduce risk. As I understand it, the more 'in remission' (lowered antibodies to acceptable range) one's Hashimoto's is, the better.
I think it's all going to be super individual. Maybe grab sample (travel sizes) to test first if you can. I started using Shae moisture stuff with castor oil in it. It seems to keep my scalp way way more moisturized than what I used to get with other products. My hair seems to grow faster too.. supposedly because of the castor oil. I have no idea if that's true or not, its only what I've been told. It could just be less breakage from dryness.

I was going to suggest the silicone strips. They are reusable and amazing. I got mine on amazon. I got mine for a major breast reduction but you can get the sheets and cut them to size.

The protein in gluten and soy and oats and corn are all very similar and have been shown to contribute to brain function. There's a book that discusses this.

Get your hands on this book even if you are not trying to get pregnant! I learned so much about my body reading this. It is normal to have a lot of slippery mucus around ovulation. I did a quick Google and blood can also appear after ovulation.
