Is Breathing Problem And Anorexia Related?

Hello dear Dr. This is a 27 y/o girl writing to you. I have been struggling with anorexia and bulimia since 10 years ago. I think that i have bad smell on my breath specially in anorexic phase. Is that related to my illness? How can I get rid of these problems? I have seen so many Dr.s and Psychologists and I m also on medication with Flouxetin (40 mg per day) but not get better at all... ! Thanks for your kind attention yours sincerely

No bed breath is not related to your illness. Bad smell will not harm you. You just accept it. You can keep mouth freshener with you so you don't feel embarrassed.
