Summary
DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) was taken on its own, separately from combined fish oil, with no stated dose or duration. No detail is given on how long they had been ill or how severe their ME/CFS was. Unlike standard fish oil, which the poster said completely wipes me out, DHA alone was tolerated without incident and appeared to clear some of their encephalitic-type symptoms. No follow-up on whether the benefit continued long-term is given.
