Avatar f tn Yes you can have stomach pain along with many other symptoms. Anorexia and Anorexia Nervosa are actually two different things.. Anorexia is simply not eating, it doesn't necessarily mean you don't WANT to eat, just a lack of eating for whatever reason. Anorexia Nervosa (what people are usually talking about when they use the term Anorexia) is when you don't eat because you think you are fat, or you have a strong fear of gaining weight.
Avatar f tn My mom is 69 and has been a heavy drinker all of her adult life. She has now begun to forget things and lose things frequently. My father is worried that it may be alzheimers because this happens in the daytime when she hasn't had a drink yet. Alcoholism runs in her family. How can we determine if she's suffering from prolonged alcohol use or if she has alzheimers?
502805 tn?1210274320 It is due to 19 years of alcoholism. Vodka. My anorexia also contributed to it. I have not gone thru the tests as far as how bad it is. My guess is it's dangling by a thread. If I don't stop drinking I will be dead in less than 6 months. It's very serious!

Avatar f tn why do girls with anorexia stop getting their periods ? what is the link to Kyphosis to anorexia ?
Avatar f tn t happen over night and doing it right will keep it off longer... With anorexia the second you start to eat your body holds in everything including the fat because it knows you will starve it again. Also when you stop eating your body will start to eat itself (including your muscles). You can do this hun... keep it up and persevere.
179856 tn?1333547362 t know anything about Portia. I had no idea she suffered from anorexia nervosa. I assumed she had anorexia - eating disorder from any cause - and that is why I assumed the anorexia resulted from her cirrhosis. Now, that I have read the gossip/Oprah stuff I lean more towards Willy's opinion.
