Hi everybody!
As you probably already guessed, I am the anorexic teenage athlete. I am a 16 year old female, 5'7 and 115 pounds. Last summer, I began the recovery process after hitting rock bottom at 99 pounds. I passed my summer physical and the doctor didn't realize that I hadn't gotten my periods for 7 months, so I passed and was allowed to compete in athletics this year. After having my volleyball coaches ask me what was wrong, I realized I had an eating disorder and got help online without telling anyone. No one other than my school counselor and my best friend know what I went through. My life is kind of perfect in academics and athletics, which probably caused the eating disorder, but I don't really want to screw that up. I am now, in my opinion fully recovered.
The problem is, I don't know if I need to bring this up with my doctor. There were times at my worst where I wouldn't eat anything for three days and abuse laxatives. My periods have returned, but I don't know if there could be any more problems that were never addressed. Honestly, I feel perfectly fine now, just a bit weak due to the loss of muscle mass. What do you all think?
