Avatar n tn Either she does not eat well or there is increased metabolism as in hyperthyroid states, HIV, cancer etc. Poor absorption as in irritable bowel syndromes and malabsorption syndromes too is possible. Malabsorption syndromes are seen in intestinal tuberculosis, HIV, tropical sprue, parasites in stool and Whipple’s Disease. Do discuss this with your step-daughter's doctor and get her examined. Take care!

Avatar n tn It can be due to the food, the time or any other condition. Eating large meals at night time can make you nauseous in the morning. Fatty, fried foods can make one nauseous. You may opt for light, wholesome foods for breakfast. This can help you reduce nausea and get proper nutrition to prepare you for the day. You may take whole-grain cereals, light yogurt; fresh fruit. Try taking hard boiled eggs instead of fried scrambled eggs.

5274485 tn?1385860167 Some states take developmental disorders in BOTH girls and boys very seriously. I am thankful to live in one of those states. Despite this I do have to say that my daughter is the only girl her age at the clinic where she receives therapy and the only one in her autism class at school in Kindergarten. There is absolutely something to be said about girls needing more dxs.

Avatar m tn Are they referring to people with active eating disorders who are in a compromised medical state and more prone to seizing, or will anyone who has ever had an eating disorder be denied this med? I am not asking for Wellbutrin because of the weight loss side effects- 100% honest!!- but instead for its apparent success rate. Finally, do I simply ask my doctor to prescribe it for me? Or would they have to recommend it?

Avatar f tn Hi, I know it's hard to be exposed to judgmental environment. I also know how emotional distress, hurts and wounds can get you to dark places... I suffered from anorexia and then bulimia in past and I know that once you start it's very hard to stop. I don't want to preach but if I were you, I would talk to an adult you are close to....maybe your mom? aunt? cousin? - and I would agree to talk to a therapist who specializes in eating disorders.

1110718 tn?1258435594 I have no actual proof, only what I consider amazing results after we stopped eating it in our house. Allergies to peanuts do not have to be lethal. They can be mild and any physical side effects can go unnoticed, but who knows what turmoil it is wreaking within the body. One indication of an allergic reaction is called the "allergic shiner". They are light to heavy dark rings around the eyes.
1202981 tn?1265620378 No you don't...trust me. You don't want to do it. You will find yourself right back here asking how to stop.

Avatar f tn The facility also specialized in treating eating disorders. My rehab roomate struggled with anorexia and bulimia. I sure learned alot about eating disorders in that time. I'm so glad you are posting about this. It sounds like you are being swept up in a cross addiction. This is a serious addiction that does kill many young women and men. A few of the girls I met had heart attacks and now live with pacemakers.
Avatar n tn i have not heard of any thing this med does (besides breasts in boys) that is negative my son has grown up on it. He did not get the breasts by the way. good luck. I hear this med is used for anger disorders too .
Avatar f tn Some options are to talk to your family doctor, seek a therapist (one experienced in eating disorders) and/or attend meetings of Overeater's Anonymous (OA). Don't let the name scare you away; it is for people with various types of eating disorders. Good luck to you. Just to let you know it's possible, I have been in recovery from my eating disorder for 15 years.
