I have been taking the following lately and noticed a few days ago my jaw muscles got very tight, then arm muscles, then hand muscles, etc.

Dr. Amy Yasko's step one supplements (except B Complex & VitaOrgan which were out of stock at the time)
lithium orotate
mastic gum (for the h.pylori)
tissue salts (bioplasma 12 salts combined and kalium phosphoricum 6X)

Any ideas what it could be? Not enough B complex? Too much lithium? Low magnesium? I will be taking an epson salt bath with ginger powder tonight, maybe it will help.

I have lowered the dosages and have stopped lithium and tissue salts. But not sure I really want to stop the mastic gum because I am only 7 days into it and really want to get rid of the h.pylori.

I know I was low on lithium but I am ok with anxiety symptoms now. Don't have money to pay for tests at the moment (maybe later down the road).

I don't think the mastic gum is causing this... More likely an imbalance of minerals...maybe too much lithium, not sure...

Need to find a B complex or multivitamin if not getting any B vitamins elsewhere...

Thorne Research makes an excellent multivitamin for those with methylation issues...uses active forms of folate, B12, B6 & I think B2... Basic Nutrients 2/Day - www.thorne.com/Products/Multiples/All_Multis/prd~VM2.jsp

May also need to add mercury binders... kick-starting methylation can cause metals dumping, and without binders to get rid of them, they'll just get redistributed elsewhere...
