I'm not that bad off and my pdoc would put me back on if it got that bad. He's awesome about taking action....Ive taken fish oil in the past. Should have crossed my mind to go get some.

Right now I just feel really raw and emotional and prone to small bouts of depression. Fish oil would probably do the trick before jumping on another med or something like that.
