I had bulimia in the past, for 4 years from 17 years old to 21. I stopped on my own with my boyfriend’s help and have been bulimia-free for 3 years. I was just wondering, what are the possible consequences of having it for a while o I can make sure I’m all right?
Hi. The medical consequences of your years of bulimia is something that needs to be discussed with your primary physician. It’s really important that you bring it up during your next physical, and if you haven’t had a physical in years – it’s probably a good idea for you to go for one. There can be some physical consequences, but not ones that outweigh the fact that you beat it at such a young age. Congratulations, by the way. There are people that battle the disorder much longer and sometimes never stop.
