Anorexia

My granddaughter has recently been diagnosed with Anorexia which has had a devastating effect on all the family Should I increase Pred? I feel my GCA is rumbling away a bit with earache, clicking jaw but it’s the generalised pain and headache which is so difficult to cope with.

Hello I have just been diagnosed with anorexia but I have had it 5 years but have been in denial and hidden it from everyone I want to get better Any tips ?

I have had this problem for 10+ years and my body will not go back to normal despite no longer being sick with anorexia. I'm just not sure what to do?? I am always uncomfortably "full" and bloated.
