SENSITIVE AND TIGHTNESS. Sensitive to touch or contact. Slight touch of collar, neckband, or clothes around neck and waist is unbearable. This sensitiveness is due to soreness and tenderness. But tightly bandage no pain. So slight touch is very painful but hard pressure agreeable. Intolerance of tight bands around neck or waist must loosen collar.

MERC. INSTABILITY.
DEFENCE Healthy organism has defence mechanism and reactivity. Merc is anarchist and revolutionary this base of his positive. Merc. has lack of reactive power coupled with an instability or inefficiency of the function. Which enables it to create a stable, efficient equilibrium upon exposure to the many physical and emotional stimuli in the environment. Wavering in its functions. The patient without adequate defence, resulting in a pathological condition, absorbs virtually all stimuli. The lack of defensive power results in sensitive to everything. There fore Merc gets agg. By heat, cold, wet weather, change of weather, warmth of bed, perspiration, exertion, various food. In Repertory italics and bold as agg. And ameliorated only 7 amel. ( out of which 5 with lying down) And 55 rubrics in favour of agg. Merc has very NARROW RANGE OF TOLERANCE to everything. There is weakness and instability in emotional expression, weeping alternate with laughing. Here symptoms are not manifested with hysteria (ign.) but it is because of mechanical instability.
RESTLESS. As we know Merc is not solid and a liquid, little touch it starts shaking, unstable, little movements it is shaking though liquid and heavy than other piqued it is unstable. (Stan. Helonias, Baptisia with weakness of reactive power, but not with the instability and inefficiency.)
