Bulimia or so they call it. I have had issues with eating and throwing up my food after each meal. In my earlier I expressed pain on my left abdominl side, along with spotting, and then spotting after my period. I went to the doctor and he wasn't useful at all- he just googled my pain...anyway I throw up after every single think I eat for the most part. I know going to the doctor their just going to say, don't do that, it's bad for you. My question is would seeing my doctor on Thursday (with a normal doctor my pcp )

Are you inducing vomiting? Are you overeating prior to vomiting?
I think you need a new doctor! Smile

I am bulemic (or a compulsive overeater) technically - I don't induce vomitting but I starve myself for periods of time and then binge for other periods of time and that is also one of the definitions of bulemia.
I am 15 months in recovery, which I achieved through a treatment centre for 5 weeks and 14 months of 3 overeaters annomyous meetings a week. It's a lot of work but it's worth it, I actually have more time to live my life now because my eating was stealing way more than 6 hours a week from me.
