[QUOTE="cookman, post: 194375, member: 41863"] Thanks for the insight, No iodine, only thing I can think of is iodine fortified salt? I read that's a thing, not sure if my salt has that or it even does anything. I too idodine supplements a few times but I'd say less than 8 capsules. Never took the whole bottle given to me by a physician a few years back. I believe I had the comprehensive exam done as I told Defy that I'd like to rule out hashimotos. Looking at the labs I see : Thyroid Peroxidase TPO Ab: 9 Iu/ML Reference 0-34 Thyroglobulin Antibody: <1.00 IU/ml Reference 0 - .09 Free T3 : 4.1 pg / ML Reference 2.0 - 4.4 Reverse T3: 17.2 ng / dL Reference 9.2-24.1 Free T4 : 1.1 ng / dL Reference .82 - 1.77 TSH 7.05 uIU/mL Reference .450 - 4.5 I read on two pub med studies that ferretin were high in covid patients but I believe it's only during infection [URL='https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7306200/']as one article mentions[/URL]. I don't have hyperferratinimenia but I had a rough time with covid about two months back, oxygen was low at 85-90 causing me to wake up gasping for air, lasted two weeks of intense fluxations. Lost 20 lbs, and currently I have eczema (never had it) on my face, along with more body pains. I always had digestion issues and we've been looking to rule out any auto immune issues but no tests done yet. The virus jacked me up, even now it feels my breathing capacity isn't the same. [/QUOTE]
