Yes, I agree that it would be a good idea to take a break from the fish oil. Since I only take a relatively small dose of it, I don't have any problems with it, but I do wonder if its like other oil-based vitamins, A & E, for example that can build up in your system. Could be. Keep us posted.
THANKS FOR THE INPUT i AM GOING TO STAY OFF FISH OIL (BOUGHT ON SALE AT WALLY WORLD) FOR A WEEK OR SO AND SEE IF IT HELPS MY DR. SAID YESTERDAY SOME PEOPLE HAVE THESE REACTIONS AFTER PROLONGED USE AND TAKING IT ON AN EMPTY STOMACH. SO GOING TO SEE WHAT HAPPENS.
Linda, you may get two notes from me. Don't have the hang of this site yet. Let me know if you receive this. Hope all is well with you and hope you are doing great....Coffeen
Yes, fish oil can cause that! How much are you taking? I take 1, only 1 a day, or else I can get those symptoms. My dr suggested 3 a day. No way! I take the GNC brand omega 3 only (EPA180mg -DHA120mg) 300mg total. It has helped me tremendously with my pvc's, pac's, and possibly a-fib as well. Just try cutting down on your dose.
You might want to arrange for a HIDA scan of your gallbladder.
No, fish oil will not cause this.
I had a colonoscopy and he checked for severasl diseases (crohns etc) no sign of any thing like that. I had a scan of stomach and nothing showed up there . Dr. is now running a blood panel to see if there are any abnormalities. But after reading about the fish oil and having all the symptoms I am inclined to believe that may be my problem. we will see.
thanks for you input will keep that in mind and ask my dr.
have a great day.
Have you been checked for issues concerning our pancreas or for celiac disease?
