Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
For about a week now I ve been refusing to eat, and, if I do its very little, and, a couple of times I ve even thrown it up. For 4 or 5 days I ve had diarrhea and it s been about a week since I ve had a solid bowel movement. I suspect that I have anorexia/bulimia but am too scared to say anything to anyone. It s 9 at night right now and I guess I m just wondering if I should go to the er and tell someone
Vomiting and diarrhea can occur in gastrointestinal infection. I suggest you take some home cooked light food. Avoid fatty and fried foods. I suggest you consult your primary healthcare provider for prescription of antibiotics for the infection.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Shailja Puri, Pathologist and Microbiologist
