Hi Jack--
I'm so glad to hear your encouraging testimonial about fish oil. Glad something natural has worked for you. I'm about to request a trial of it with my doc. If he doesn't approve, then I'm doing it anyway. I'm having a really bad problem with acne right now due to what I think is a reaction to my med. I'm taking Lamictal as an AD and "mood stabilizer" for mostly depressive bipolar disorder (BP type II). Even though Lamictal is working, its effect doesn't "stick". Sometimes I have breakthrough anxiety and depression.
Do you think that the store brands of fish oil are ok? I've heard about these other fancy brands and different types. I wonder if that's even relevant? Have you tried these other more expensive models?
Also--I've heard that it takes awhile for improvement on fish oil if there is any. How long did it take for you to feel the results?
Thanks,
katy
