Lasted two days, then he started pulling stickers off things again.

So he still needs a little, just not as much as I was giving.

I would give him fish oil, and he would be " off " for several hours,

then GREAT for a few days, then " off " again. I will try mixing the

lower dose of fish oil with flax oil [this worked before] and see if

that helps. If not, a friend of mine recommended I try krill oil.

Cod liver oil

>> and Dana what made you decide to drop the fish oil?

My son would regress for several hours after I gave it. However, it

does appear that he still needs it, so I will be experimenting a

little [see previous message].

As a general rule, figuring out WHY my son did not tolerate something

has been VERY beneficial. Sometimes the WHY is because he no longer

needs it, sometimes it is because something ELSE needs addressing.

Well, he definitely did NOT need the flax! OMG! I had forgotten how

nasty he was when he no longer needed flax!

Anyway, so that did not work. I went to my local Henry's Marketplace,

where " everybody knows my name " LOL, to decide if I wanted to buy the

krill oil. But instead, I decided I wanted to figure out WHY the fish

oil was causing this issue.

I sat down on the floor in front of the EFA section, which they have

conveniently [NOT] divided into a section and an endcap about three

aisles over from the section, and pulled out the fish oil I had been

using. Stared at the label for a while. Pulled out other brands, and

stared at those labels.

The other fish oils contained vitamin E, which my son is fully loaded

and does not tolerate more. The one I had purchased, did not list

vitamin E on the label.

But!

It did list d-alpha tocopherol in the ingredient list! So, it has

vitamin E, even tho not in the nutritional facts section of the label.

This is hopefully his problem with being " off " for a few hours after

giving the fish oil.

I found ONE brand, conveniently [NOT] located at the bottom of the

endcap display, that had no added d-alpha tocopherol, which I

purchased. I should know if it works in a day or so.
