Not all is lost Demografx. And maybe we'll have help from Dr Waldinger. Not necessarily in the forum but in a further paper. If he decide to post here he'll be very welcome. It's a long way to go!
i thought Dr Schweitzer passed all to Dr Waldinger and didn't want to participate here... I'm going to sleep !
Has anyone noticed any seasonality to their symptoms? ...I had some symptom-free NEs this summer which I attributed to my addition of raw garlic to my diet....I had some minor symptoms recently after orgasm.
Has anyone noticed any seasonality to their symptoms? I had not previously made any association with POIS and time of the year, but I am just curious about it now.
Girlwind i wanted to do this test after your initial post. It will be interesting to do it again after you take the supplement. (I can't find where it's written 16mcg of iodine.) I'm not sure if you've done an other test for the thyroid, it should be showing something if the tincture test is meaningful.
Demografx, yes it could indeed be the garlic that produced the results, but I am just speculating on another possibility.

After watching the video of Dr Holick I am wondering if there could be a link. http://www.uvadvantage.org/Home/AudioVideo/tabid/69/Default.aspxI had some symptom-free NEs this summer which I attributed to my addition of raw garlic to my diet. Garlic may indeed have been what helped me, but I am realizing that that was the time of the year of maximum vitamin D production by the skin. Reading back in the forum I claimed my success on July 26th, and July was a really nice month where I live, lots of nice weather for me to get out in the sun. August and September have been mostly wet and dark, and therefore less time was spent outdoors. And as I mentioned, I had some minor symptoms recently after orgasm. I am therefore wondering if lower serum vitamin D levels might be a cause. Although I have never associated POIS with seasonality, I have indeed noticed that my double vision problems always arose in the springtime, a time of the year when the body has been apparently running off the vitamin D “storage tank” all winter.
