Hi Loops,
Wow, that sure is success! Would you mind saying what your full fatty acid intake is? I know you mentioned in your post above that you take about 3 grams of fish oil, and 1-2 caps of lecithin. How much lecithin is in the caps you take? I guess the epo you mention is Evening Primrose Oil? Is that your GLA? Or are you taking something else for GLA? I was so inspired by your post that I went out today to try to find some lecithin, but the local health food store was out of it. But as soon as they get a new shipment, I will start taking it with fish oil.

Right now I'm pretty happy with the wheatgerm oil, and I've managed to find a level of GLA that doesn't pull my mood down, but does completely anhialate (sp?) residual anxiety that the fish oil does not completely take care of. Must be my hormones - because this month I had no PMT and I had just added back in 3 caps of 500mg epo a day. I still rave about lecithin in combo with fish oil. I even seem to be able to tolerate a few caps of flax seed oil without it sending me into mixed-emotion-land - as long as I take the GLA.
