High strength Omega 3 fish oil capsules - side effects anyone?

I started taking Bettervit Omega 3 capsules 3 days ago. Each day I'm feeling slightly nauseous, indigestion and bit of an upset tummy.

Anyone else? I don't know whether to keep taking them although they weren't cheap and I chose them because they have enough of the good stuff to make a difference - so they were more expensive.

Would appreciate others' experiences and some reassurance (hopefully) that the 'side effects' will pass.
TY

Are you used to eating a lot of oily fish? It’s no different to eating a mackerel or a kipper. If you aren’t used to eating oily fish then maybe it will take a while to get used to it - do you take them with food?

I eat tinned mackerel and fresh salmon but in moderation so, each roughly once a week or so; I'm not sure if that counts as alot though. Yes, I have capsules with breakfast. Maybe if I don't take any tomorrow I will see if there's a difference.
