I have taken a combination of fish oil and lecithin capsules, in equal parts, for about 35 years, to manage fibromyalgia (which started in my very tough and athletic body when I was 13). In that time I have had to increase the dose, and the level of relief has reduced, but essentially it still works. I get stiff, I take the pills, I wait 15 minutes, I can now move normally. Reliably, for 35+ years. Over that time, I have played around with ratios of fish oil to lecithin, and with different high omega 3 oils, and different sources of lecithin, as I do not like taking the same supplements for a long time. But simply, the variations never work as well as the original. And they work better if I take them with a glass of milk, full fat cows milk. If I stop drinking cows milk they stop working altogether so saturated fat is also necessary or some other magic ingredient in cows milk. Over that time I have also tried every form of detox and every form of quack medicine invented by the human mind, and none has improved my symptoms - except this fish oil, lecithin and milk combo.

So no lectures on how bad this all is. We do what we have to do to survive. I am still functional at 72 where prescription medicines would have killed me within a few years. Despite being seriously messed now with the rollout of 5G around me, I have been doing something right.

Individualized care plan is what you found. Something about your needs and tgat combination works 💪 which is fantastic for you to have figured out.

For me fibromyalgia pain is linked to excess carotenoids or vitamin A. Milk would be providing you some vitamin A. And temporarily relief, but, the next day may leave you more inflamed. Since this has been a lifelong practically problem I would such just giving an elimination of vitamin A and carotenoids a try for a few weeks and see if thst makes a more lasting difference - and continue the lecithin and omega 3, but the milk would need to stop for the test period. // not a lecture, my feedback, after learning more about fibromyalgia pain in myself.

Interesting. It is still being pushed for detoxing the spike protein, but if the spike protein is not our problem and EMFs are (my theory on everything health related), can it do anything to protect from harmful radiation frequencies? We have to be treating the right disease.

I think it is a combination and we need to deal with EMF and other issues. Some sort of chimeric spike exists that is causing very strange and new symptoms. I don't think it is just 5G alone.

I started with a half a patch a day - 10 mg for the whole day. Then I transitioned to tiny nibbles off a 4 mg lozenge as the patch caused skin irritation. 4 mg would be like power smoking 4 cigarettes at once. Tiny nibbles effect my hut less then if I take a larger piece or get on a roll and am taking too many little pieces in a row. Tend to do that later at night when I really should have just gone to bed.
