Anorexia

My Anorexia isn't the best right now. I hate the way I look. My thighs are big, my stomach is bloated. I hate it. Haven't ate in a few weeks, and I'm starving. I can't eat though. I need help with my ED

Telling People Re Anorexia History

Hi Everyone, So, I don't know why but my history with AN has been playing on my mind a lot recently and it is really getting to me. It has taken up so much of my life and while I am in a much better place with it than during my 20s, some of the thoughts are still there and I get flashbacks a lot. I

Olanzapine for Anorexia Voices

My 17 year old daughter is suffering with anorexia. She is just starting the recovery process with the support of CAMS. Her mood is very low and she is often teary. She has started experiencing voices and Olanzapine 2.5g has been recommended along with Sertraline. Is this the normal treatment.

Menopur treatment after secondary amenorrhea

I had secondary amenorrhea for almost 3 years due to anorexia and over exercising. Now i'm at an healthy weight and my body fat % is finally getting to 19. My follicols really don't want to grow over 10-11mm and my hormones are still basically absent.

New here- Living in a larger body with anorexia and chronic illness

I use it as a neutral descriptor) and have struggled with anorexia for the past 20 years. I was prescribed dieting starting at the age of 10 (although my food was already being restricted by age 7 by my family). I started my recovery about 5 years ago.

Pain

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.

Help in the New Year?

Now I'm feeling like I'm still not doing well because anorexia is always hard to fight, I still find myself restricting but I'm also trying to focus on things I'm loving. I picked up embroidery after months, I find it very relaxing and helpful.

IBS C Treatment?

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.

Any idea why some people never have "bad" lab results?

I also suffered from anxiety, anorexia, depression, weight loss, and hair loss.

Prednisolone and weight loss/difficult time eating

I do have digestive issues (gastroparesis) and anorexia nervosa but I always struggle so much more with eating on prednisolone and was wondering if there was a reason why? Or is it just my brain being weird alongside my body? I also struggle a lot more with low blood sugars on pred. too.

Can't find any help.

I've been going to the doctors, but the issue is that I have a diagnosis of anorexia (for the past eight years), so I'm not taken too seriously. now I'm rapidly losing weight & I really want to stop that from happening, but I'm struggling to cope being in pain constantly & I'm just at my wits end.

Shortness of breath and pounding heart?

I am 21 and lead a relatively health lifestyle, but I am also in recovery of anorexia nervosa. I am really really concerned there is something wrong with my heart, like heart failure or mitral valve prolapse or something like that.

Anyone else have allergies along with Endo?

Battling anorexia, insomnia and psychosis.... So anyway, for about 7 years I’ve been ‘allergic’ to the sun! It has always been particularly bothersome! But now though, it’s got massively worse!
