> Undereducated, worrying about their likely life threatening potential illness or injury. That's basically under duress

I was never communicated about gadolinium pollution. Not once.

And yes, on my recent MRI, I explicitly asked why there was metal particulate in my joint. "I dont know, sometimes it happens'... No you fucking tool of a doctor. Its gadolinium.

And I finally find out here.





Are you certain it is gadolinium? As I recall from a family member's health issues you can get particulates in joints from arthroscopic surgery or from the metal implants. Not saying that is what happened in your case, but I'm just curious because I remember reading about metal in joints as a potential side effect of the surgery.
