Hi Adrienne,
My guess is that the dose was enough to loosen "stuff" and get "it" 
into circulation on its way to elimination from the body. But then, for 
some reason, not duly eliminated and thus circulating and maybe 
partially redepositing near your joints. If so then maybe adding a mild 
chelating agent such as cilantro would tip the process enough to get 
the stuff to move on out.  ???

Do you check for body pH? are you acid or alkaline?

Very interesting.
