Admittance BMI

[MrsPoppy]

What is the BMI level at which they automatically send you into admission?

BMI shouldn't matter when being admitted to hospital, but sadly most of the time it does.
However I was admitted to hospital & I'm only just underweight & suffered from Severe Bulimia (since then I've been diagnosed with Severe Bulimia&Anorexia), Bascially you don't have to be Anorexic to be addmitted & you don't have to have a tiny BMI, however since you asked, I believe its when your in the emaciated category, but it also depends on a lot of other factors such as mindset, physical condition etc.

Thanks for the honest reply.

yup, i have to concur with eyeliner+cigs here.
not only your weight but your phys health will be taken into consideration. your sense of insight into your prob is important. there might be other behaviours exacerbating (oooh long word i cant spell!) your level of safety.
