Hello,
i suffer from bulimia for 2 years. The last year I have problems with water retention. Water is mostly in my legs, although when I wake up in the morning my legs are reletevly ok ( it shifts to my upper body). My legs are the worst when i've walked for some time. I've been hospitalised one time for huge amount of water in my body. I didn't urinate for 4 or 5 days and in the hospital they didn't find out why. In the next few days I didn't eat or drink anything and lost the water.
In the summer my condition worsens. I've read about consequencies caused by bulimia, and I know that people have problems with liver, heart and kidnyies. So I believe my problem with water retention is tied with problem with one or more organs.
I have every intention to see a doctor that specializes in this soon, but if there is someone with similar problem who has managed to keep it under control and better his condition while still suffering from bulimia I would be grateful for advice.
Sorry for the long post but I wanted to give you all the relevant information so if there is someone who has been through the similar experience please help.
Thank you,
angelina
