Re: KateL       04/19/05 04:53 PM Edit Reply Quote kateL Reged: 12/14/04 Posts: 35 Loc: Camano Island, WA Beth, I understand about the meds for delayed gastric emptying and I agree about some of the side effects. I had one of them that also acts as an anti-nausea med for something unrelated and was unable to tolerate the side effects. I know stress definitely exacerbates my symptoms. Yoga has helped tremendously with that. I did have some problems related to my ED such as my teeth and a loose cardiac spincter(the flap from your esophagus to stomach). I used to have really bad heartburn. I believe the body is designed to heal itself in a very remarkable way. I haven't had heartburn for ages and thanks to a good dentist all the damage is repaired. My symptoms prior to the ED were basically gas and just not having a BM. I know when I was stressed even back then I would get that butterfly feeling in my stomach which is the same feeling I get today when stressed and makes me have D. Having an eating disorder is like living in a prison. I felt like I could never enjoy life while wrapped up in the ED. Being free from that is the greatest thing in the world. I don't worry about my weight or what I eat(other than things related to IBS)and food is not something used like a chemical anymore. I guess I don't feel bad anymore that I had an ED. I am greatful that I have recovered. It also helps with everyone being honest and open. You should be proud that you have overcome that part of your life. I have to say also that I used to feel deprived about not eating all those things you mentioned but I recently watched a movie that changed my mind about certain foods. The movie is a documentary called 'supersize me' about a guy that eats McDonalds for a month straight. He is followed by a nutritionist and MD during the month and it is shown the results of some of these foods. It is kind of done in a humorous way so it was very enjoyable to watch. I hope this helps. Take care Kate Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
