Eating Disorder - slightly embarrasing, but.......

I am a cat · 23-06-2009, 10:29 PM

I was recently in hospital because I didnt eat for X amount of days, and obviously when you dont eat, nothing comes out the other end. But I have eaten in the hospital and altogther its been 10 days without having a number 2 now, and im not quite sure what to do. I tried lactulose and fybogel, im trying to stay away from laxatives because Ive only manged to get myself off them after abusing them.

Any ideas?

Cause Im scared its all gonna stuck inside me and build up and do something.

I get this all the time from my bowel problems. I'd see your doctor if I were you. Hope you feel better

Get medical advice from your treating professionals I'd suggest love, and the sooner the better so they can work out something appropriate they can do to help you.

As well as seeing hyour Dr make sure you're drinking enough. Try neat pure orange juice (with bits if you can) and eating plenty of fruit as well, these won't become laxatives just help what you've got built up.

you need to be eating a high fibr diet where possible, something like weetabix for breakfast to help get things moving. but it might be agood idea as its been so long for you to seek the help of a doctor and get their advice on this.

^ Just wanted to add, that doesn't always seem to help for everyone, because things with high fibre can bung me up sometimes - However, you know about First Aid more than I do, so I may be completely wrong and I may just be a freak..

Fruit is good, and califig can be useful - but just go careful. I think a trip to the Doctor would be good though, they'l have all of your notes and everything. xxxx
