Hi Katson, I have heard of mercury lodging in the jawbone etc, and I don't see why it wouldn't affect the joints and get in there, since it travels everywhere! I'd say YES! I have had experiences of severe lower back pain and sore joints and finding it hard also to straight them, once I've been sitting down or something. I was almost screaming agony to do the same as you're doing (straight myself). So this rings bells with me.

I assume it was mercury, since over time this resolved and things were loosened up nicely again with NO pain after detox! So it's possible, but in my unprofessional unqualified status, I would not like to say for certain, since this is your your health and in case there is some other issue going on.....

I can only take unqualified guesses. Things can hurt as mercury is chelated/mobilised/moved and pulled out and around. Wherever that mercury is residing? You can get increased symptoms in those very areas. E.g. some have had burning pain and pulling sensations in the brain area or in bones too and muscles etc. At times it can feel like sheer agony. I had to stop chelation sometimes in the middle of a round because I could not always continue due to aching and exhaustion. Thankfully, due to it being Cutler's protocol, I did not get quite the insane psycho symptoms I had with other methods which seemed only to move mercury around wildly.
