Wow girl, that's not so good.(duh) I wish I could help you somehow. Maybe this?

When my ex was unable to eat(I don't know your situation really) we went through 8 or 9 gastroenterologists etc and they found NOTHING.(well, they said colitis, chrones, IBS, etc ad nauseum) He lost 40lbs during his last sick month. Thankfully, right then we found a holistic MD. Still an MD, but holistic, that doctor had my ex eating and digesting in a week. Perhaps a holistic MD could help you.

Sweet. I love stories like that - they always give me hope.

Unfortunately I just had to stop with a holistic MD I was working with because she was batshit crazy . . . but I've just switched to another holistic type [non-MD, though] and things might just be turning around. Can't really say just yet though.

But thank you so much for saying that!!! It's always good to hear there IS a way out.

I hope you find the right person. Ask around to anyone that looks remotely crunchy. Find someone people trust.

Or hell, come to Austin and see mine. He does do phone appts...I'm not sure if he would for a 1st time person, but shit man, it might be worth trying. He's very compassionate and dedicated.

It was a matter of the cell walls in his intestines being too permeable or something which was disallowing absorbtion of nutrients. After he saw Dr Zbylot he took a handful of supplemts every day. I really thought he was going to die.
Then he started keeping food down. Miraculous and awesome it was.

Ah, sorry. I hate to remind you of wanting to be super tiny . . . it's just crazy because I did NOT plan this at all and can't put on weight no matter how hard I try.

that's not good, been there. 76 was my smallest, I didn't know I'd dropped under 90 until it was too late and I was so sick and I'm also a lot shorter than you so I can't imagine how ill you must be right now. it wasn't eating disordered related at that point though. stress can do that to you and add stress to medical problems? :/ have you seen a doctor yet?

Shit! 76? That's insane.

Well stress definitely makes my Crohn's disease worse, which is probably exactly what's going on.

I'm working with a few doctors, but things are all confusing and ridiculous.
