I cannot fathom why fish oil would irritate your bladder. Very strange. Was it a quality brand? I take Carlson's Liquid and highly recommend it as an affordable and very high quality source of O-3 fats.
Here is a couple studies on SJW's anti-inflammatory activities. There are quite a few on PubMed.
"The effect of Hyp was thus evaluated on an animal model of experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE), a classic, Th1-mediated autoimmune disease of the CNS, and we observed that Hyp attenuates the severity of the disease symptoms significantly. "
"Interestingly, cytokine-induced activations of the signal-transducer-and-activator-of-transcription-1 (STAT-1) and the nuclear-factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) were both down-regulated by SJW extract"
There is no problem combining any of the substances I listed in my earlier post. As always, start with a low dose and cautiously work your way up.
