Dalton, I take 6000 units/day and haven't had any experience like what you're describing. Has your doctor confirmed this as a side effect of Omega 3?
Sorry about your pain..........hope you get some relief soon. I suppose I mean acute pain, as pain is part of this game...........since the numbness went away, pain is with me every day. Keep on fighting........ janh Stillwater OK ________________________________ From: Dalton Garis <malugss...@gmail.com> To: "Towery, Ruben Dale" <rdtow...@southernco.com>; "tmic-list@eskimo.com" <tmic-list@eskimo.com> Sent: Fri, June 4, 2010 9:03:11 AM Subject: Re: [TMIC] Omega 3 and muscle convulsions My brother just informed me that there is a link between fish oil and nerve inflammations. I have a bad back even before TM mow it is a neon sign inviting any biologically active agent inside. I was without the fish oil for about 5 days because I had run out. No spells for 8 days. I got back on the omega 3—which I take for depression—and within a couple of days I got a convulsive spell lasting for 6 hours, the worst one yet. Then I awoke this morning and spent another two hours being alternatively as stiff as an oak plank to collapsing in a chair. Has anyone else heard of their being some kind of link between using high dosed of fish oil and exacerbating inflamations? Dalton Garis Abu Dhabi/New York > >
