I've been bulimic for about a year and a half, and anorexic for about 6 months before that. For about the past 6 months i've had various pains etc but they've all managed to go away. Recently though i've been getting pains between my sholder blades, and this morning pains in my right sholder blade, under my right arm and under my right breast. I was wondering if anyone has experienced something similar or knows what this is as i'm reluctant to see a doctor enless i really need to.

see a chinese medicine practicioner

sounds like it could be something to do with your organs, spleen/ stomach or liver. I suggest you go and see a practicioner of chinese medicine as they are able to diagnose symptoms of imbalances that western doctors have no idea about. I have had pains like you have described and they were related to liver imbalances and spleen problems, anorexia and bulimia are both very damaging to the spleen especially but also to sotmach and liver... well basically eventually anorexia/ bulimia is damaging to the entire body system and long term eating disorders will cause permanent damage and imbalances, so I suggest you seek help from an informed practicioner now.
