I have been having heart trouble increasing this part week. I am anorexic but I was diaonosed by my counselor so my regular doctor doesn't know. But I dropped 20 pounds in a month I was 9 stone 8 and now I am a little under 8 stone. I am 5'8. But earlier this week I was really close to going to the emergency room for heart attack. My heart beats usually less than a best per second went skyrocketing and I was so dizzy I could barely see and I fel sick my brother and father were arguing and I had nothing to do with it but it made me really nervous. Then yesterday and today when I breathe it hurts my in my back like a sharp pain. But my question is should I got to my GP or should I wait to see my counselor Wednesday and he is going to weigh me and see if I need to go to a eating disorder treatment center. What should I do?By the way I am 15

ReplyDeleteclapper - The heart will always get first call on your bodies nutrition supply so don't worry about it. The heart has only one job and that is to pump blood (oxygen0 to your body. If it is doing its jo you have nothing to worry about. Fast beating or slow beating it makes no difference, the important question to answer is are you showing the signs and symptoms of poor oxygenation. Learn them and look for them in your self and your family. The big problem for small people is there hearts do not put on the physical size to help them through hard times which limits life length. No one can make you grow a heart big enough to see you through life's problems. Look up the signs and symptoms of poor oxygenation on the net.
ReplyDeleteLilysa - It's best for you to see a doctor. Among the complication of anorexia is bradycardia - the slowness of the heartbeat.
ReplyDeleteYour body need those vitamin and electrolyte from foods to function. I hope you will get well soon. :)
