Re: Re: Omerga 3 vitamin and Tourette's

[Guest guest]

Rose,

No it was not the Dr's decision to start on Omega

3. Through research and talking to people here, I

thought I would give it a try. With his OCD,

Tourette's, and being bullied at school for being

different, he is very depressed. I have an appt next

week with the Doc and plan to talk to him about it.

From my research, I have found of no harmful side

effects. I just wanted to check with everyone here.

His ticks were acting up before I started to give him

Omega 3 and his ticks have gone down about 40% since

the increase in Tenex. I doubt if there is a

correlation but I wanted to double check to see if

anyone had any S/E's. He's been on Omega 3( which is

a fish oil) for three weeks now.

I have a feeling the Doc will add something like

Resirdal to the mix. I can't get rid of his Tenex b/c

that helps with his impulsivity.
