HI Everyone,

I started to take some fish oil capsules everyday at work in the morning, every Monday to Friday. I normally take 3 around 10 am. it has been about 2 months now. They were just sitting in my desk so i decided to take it, no specifically to see any benefit on my Beckers disease.

For my surprise, I notice a lot benefit from them. I could go up the stairs much more easily, live my life better. So i thought it couldn't be the fish oil capsules and i was just having a good month. I stopped the capsules. I got worse straight away.

I thought I share it with you all, hopefully it improves somebody else.

3 capsules in the morning is doing me great.

Good luck everyone! :)

Giselle,

Thanks for sharing your experience. I don't tolerate fish or fish oil because of another disorder (can't break down long chain fatty acids) so it actually makes my muscle worse. But for most people it should help reduce inflammation.

If you have trouble with fish burps, you can store the capsules in the freezer. It won't change the effectiveness of the capsules, but it will keep you from getting as much indigestion.
