Bulimia & chest pains

Sarah0209 — Wed, 30 Jun 2021 10:21:17 GMT

Hi there,

ive never been diagnosed with Bulimia but I’m pretty aware that I have it. Ive been having symptoms for quite a few years now and we’ll aware that I have a problem. My dr is aware that I have issues with my body issues but I have never brought up all my symptoms.
Yesterday however, I have noticed that I have been getting sharp pains on the right side of my chest during an episode and this has continued to happen today. Obviously being the opposite side of where my heart is, does anyone know what this could be?

thanks everyone..
