Hello,
I'm fairly new to this site but oh so glad I found you .... I have been struggling on and off with Bulemia since high school. Lately I've been experiencing a lot of scary symptoms and undergoing tests and I'm scared to death of finding out the results. Not that they will find anything too serious, but that they will find that I did this all to myself! I am scheduled for a colonoscopy because of chronic constipation possibly from laxative abuse. New symptoms may also lead to an endoscopy. After eating, food feels like it's "stuck" halfway and ironically the only relief I get is to purge. And even the consistency of that is scary .... UGH. It's just a vicious cycle! I am only 40 years old and of reasonable intelligence .... enough to know that this is so stupid and I have to stop!!
Anyway, thanks for letting me share. It is nice to know I'm not alone in this fight.
