- you might want to try an enzyme for yourself - nattokinase (I think

that's how you spell it). It is great for breaking down clots in your blood.

disease called antiphosolipid antibody syndrome. It can cause blood clots among

other things. I read that you shouldn't take this fish oil if you are on an

anticoagulant. Does that mean that the fish oil might thin the blood? I would

think in my case that would be a good thing. Do you know where I could get any

info on that?

I am just still hoping this fish oil might help. I sure don't think it will

hurt. Is there any reason for him not to take it before his surgery where he is

getting tubes in his ears or before his allergy test is done? Thanks!

Some doctors recommend stopping the oils before surgery and other doctors don't.

(they can't seem to agree!)  I would however, check with your doctor to see

whether

you should take them or not. Fish oils are a great supplement for most and what

your body doesn't need, it expels.

Most doctors don't really get how much they help kids with apraxia, but most

seem

to give you the old line of " well, they can't hurt " !

I would check with your doctor just to make sure because of the syndrome you

have.

I hope you get a positive answer.

you are right about the fish oil and thinning the blood. My son had a

upper and lower GI and we had to be off all fish oils for a couple weeks before

hand for that reason
