356080 tn?1227034315 Whatever he is eating it is keeping him in the Growth Chart. Children that age do not usually have anorexia. Have you tried is to engage him in the kitchen more because they usually love to be a part of making food. Have him help you with preparation of food and setting the table. Hopefully this will increase his interest in other types of food. Important part is to relax and do not make a big deal about what he eats or does not eat at meals.
Avatar f tn I really need help. Been severely depressed for many years, about a year ago i started abusing opiates. To get off of them I started using suboxon. That was so hard to get off of I used tramadol (notice a pattern here?). I am down to one 50mg tram a day. I am anorexic. Not recovering, just anorexic.

Avatar f tn When I was young I had anorexia and lost my periods completely, along with any sexual desires. When I finally came to my senses and told myself to have faith in my body to find a good weight and eat when hungry I slowly came back to a life. I then got married and had children and only then discovered how lucky I was as many anorexics can no longer have children. You may need to go and talk to a psychologist who will help you deal with the reason for your anorexia.
Avatar n tn Also ive recently had bloods done but my LFT (liver function test) has come back abnormal its been that way for 4 mounths now. Oh and i also suffer from anorexia but am having help for it and am trying to recover.
918035 tn?1274644533 You have many symptoms of anorexia. Anorexia is not about the food, it's about underlying issues that causes a person to go away from food. I will advise you to speak to an adult. Hopefully, you could talk to your mom or dad. You need to get some professional help and support. You need to see a medical doctor just to check on your overall medical condition and growth.
Avatar m tn I just honestly have no true desire for sexual activity. Could this be a form of sexual anorexia? What should I do to help my relationship? Am I too young for sexual Health meds?
Avatar f tn But I really admire young mums! It also means by the time they have all grown up you will still be young!

Avatar n tn re crossing into the area of Anorexia. I have heard about the trend with young people, especially girls, thinking that Anorexia is a "cool" or "in" thing. Well, it isn't. People die from this mental illness. Please, concentrate on being fit and healthy. When you exercise, do not do it in excess, but do not be a couch potato either. Go with moderation and go with an activity you actually enjoy. Do not become Obsessive/Compulsive about exercise or weight loss.
Avatar f tn I am here to help. And it's never too late for you. I've had bulimia, I've had anorexia, and I've had both at the same time. I don't have anorexia or bulimia anymore. I've seen more therapists than I can count. I've been sent, against my will, to lots of inpatient programs for months at a time. I had almost no contact with my family during my stays. I am 5 ft 7 in. and weigh 120. I have not thrown-up at all in 2009. I exercise daily.
Avatar m tn While I was battling anorexia nervosa, before I became pregnant, I had trouble with thinning hair. maybe you're having a dietary problem??

Avatar f tn Hello, I recently discovered friable, breaking asbestos pipe insulation in my basement. We are going to have air quality testing done, and have considered dust wipe testing as well. I am extremely concerned for my family's health, including very young children, and would really appreciate any help you could provide! We stored the a/c units in the basement uncovered for at least one year, and covered for 2 additional years, using them in the summertime.
Avatar n tn I know children are curious but is this normal for children at his age to talk about this? We only have 2 bdrms so that is why they share a room. We are both in shock and don't know what to do or how to handle it. Any advice would be great!
Avatar m tn Yes, she's too young -- these meds aren't approved for people that young, though doctors can prescribe them. Her brain is still developing. These drugs aren't even recommended long-term for adults, so imagine if this becomes, as mentioned above, the med merry go round. I'd stick with therapy and realize that all 13 year olds are nuts in some way that sometimes lasts but usually doesn't.
Avatar m tn Ketotic hypoglycemia more commonly refers to a common but mysterious "disease" of recurrent hypoglycemic symptoms with ketosis in young children. The cause and the homogeneity of the condition remain uncertain,[1] but a characteristic presentation, precipitating factors, diagnostic test results, treatment, and natural history can be described. It remains one of the more common causes of hypoglycemia in the age range.
