Costco or Walmart fish oil is as good as any, IMHO.

Absolutely correct. If you use medication that affects insulin responsiveness, you may find fish oil destabilized things at first.
In any case, it would be prudent to start at a lower dose, and work up. Some people need to build tolerance. Your body has to adapt to the supply, so it can manufacture uptake proteins.
I'd start at 2 grams per day, with your biggest meal (or the fattiest). Increase by 1 gram each week. The upper limit is a personal choice.
