Well hello everyone, I am back from Pensacola beach.
When I suggested the Omega 3 experiment I knew that it would'nt be scientific.
But, I figured that most of us are past the placebo effect in terms of taking "snake oil" and feeling better. What I mean is, if something works we know it works. I for example have been suffering from this disease enough to know if I feel better or not.
In terms of brands, I have been buying Omegabrite but it gets too expensive. According to Dr. Stols studies, the ration of epa vs dha should be at least 2 to 1 respectively. Omegabrite which is what he used in the research has a 7 to 1 ratio.
He suggests other brands in his book but I don't have it with me at the moment. But I will find out.
Anyway, this could be counted as group therapy or something like that;)))If I don't get back with you is because I am going to Miami now for another mini vacation. Don't be jealous, I am not even enjoying it. It is just it has been paid for and my kids and husband get to enjoy for me. In fact, it just reminds me of how bad I feel when I don't get to enjoy even the ocean.
P.S. I deeply apologize if I offended anyone by using the word retarded in describing doctors in general. I know there are many wonderful doctors out there who deeply care for their patients. It just gets too frustrating when you want to feel better and you can't.
