i have been diagnosed with an under active thyroid as a consequence of radiation therapy. This means I am lacking in iodine as far as I can make out. I have been prescribed the tablets, but my problem (or I see it as a possible problem) is the diet I need to keep my glucose levels down versus the diet to keep a good daily dosage of iodine. They appear to oppose each other eg, potatoes - carbs, not good for diabetes but good for intake of iodine. Does anyone have experience of this and am I just being paranoid at this early stage?
