Re: For those who had Eating Disorders       04/18/05 07:25 AM Edit Reply Quote BarbaraS Reged: 02/12/03 Posts: 1939 Loc: Wisconsin I recovered from my ED 15 years ago and I never want to be anorexic again. I don't agree with your doctor about not having permanent problems from years of being anorexic. I work at a hosptial and a few months ago we had a 32 year old woman on my floor who weighed 63 lbs. She has multiply health issues from purging and not eating. The social worker on my floor found a facility that would accept her and we were encouraged to tell her she has one more chance to get better or she will die. I realize that sounds harsh, but sometimes that is what ED people need to hear. When you abuse your body for years you mess with your metabolism, become defecient in minerals and vitaments that are essential for your body to function and your body draws energy from carbohydrates (fats), but when there is no fat your body takes it from your bones. My suggestion is get another endoscopy to make sure there is no damge in your esophagus, because untreated erosion can lead to Barrett's Esophagus, which is precancer. If you haven't already your doctor should check to see if there has been any bone loss. Remeber too you don't have to show any damage in your colon to be dx with IBS. You abused your body for years and it may take longer than the rest of us to have normalcy. Stick with Heather's diet and don't deny yourself food when your stomach hurts. I feel worse when I don't eat and sourdough bread is awesome on my bad stomach days. Hang in there Beth!!! Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
