I had been taking fish oil for several months and a few weeks ago started taking a good brand of krill oil. Now this may just be a coincidence, but i have been attempting to taper from 6.5 pred to 6 for about 8 weeks and always felt achy so would just stay on the 6.5. Its been a month since I started the krill oil and Im back to tapering and feeling quite comfortable. Could this be helping? Im on week 3 of DSNS taper.

Maybe or it could be coincidence - it does tend to work eventually when you have tried the new dose enough times!!!
There was a question about krill oil ages ago, someone's daughter had insisted it was SOOOOOO much better than ordinary oil. I think the conclusion at the time was the main difference was in the price! But if it works for you and it isn't breaking the bank - go for it.
I had just been reading about the anti inflammatory effects of Krill oil and may well get some soon, thank you for the reminder. Omega 3 can’t do any harm. It’s difficult as there’s so many supplements to try. At the moment I’m on some Montmorency cherry capsules that were on special offer, I tried similar a few years back and it seemed to help then. The trouble is my PMR seems to fluctuate in severity no matter what I do, but I’m always keen to do something to get a bit of control. All good wishes x
PS seem to know more about the relative values of Omega 3 in horse diets-flaxseed/linseed advised there. The pony has a better/more expensive diet than myself-every vitamin/mineral is exactly balanced
