> Hey there. You say that you are really sensitive to meds. I was just wondering if you had tried any of the "alternatives" like fish oil etc. to help your cycling.

Yes, I'm been taking about 1G of EPA every day for quite awhile now. It seemed to be doing something positive for the first few weeks, but the last few weeks it doesn't seem to make any difference. I'm continuing to take it because it isn't that expensive and it's good for your blood vessels and triglycerides. I get a little more benefit from L-tyrosine-but even that seems to poop out with chronic dosing. It seems to work better to try only during low energy parts of my cycle and then stop it when I feel better. The biggest thing I can do to improve cycling and mixed symptoms is to *avoid* the "wrong" meds. Sometimes it isn't easy to figure out what those are. But, if you are on chronic meds you can wind up with something that is causing as much trouble as the other meds are helping and nor really know it. The best predictor for me is whether a med is sleep-disruptive or not.
