A few questions and doubts.
Hi, I have been noticing a few things that I didn’t give it to much thought till a few days ago. In general I AM FEELING SOOOO MUCH BETTER. But I went to the dentist because of a sensitivity I was having, and She said I had some type of virus because of low immune system, which that is what I am still working on. It has gotten better yet its still very low. And the other thing I have noticed is my hands are constantly yellow. I am not eating thins that would cause that. And reading (google-I KNOW-not I shouldn’t google, thats why I am writing here), it says anorexia could be a cause, the reason why I am asking, I KNOW i am NOT anotexia, I eat a lot, but it seams like a lot of my symptoms like my very low strogen etc has a anorexia touch to it, so even though I am eating a lot, still can’t loose my extra weight, is any of this connected? Something I should be looking at? Thank You!!!! I don’t even know if this makes sence but thank you!!! -

Forgot to add that the reason I mention anorexia, is because my dentist also mentioned it to me. So I feel like I am hearing or reading it around my symptoms. But I am NOT anorexic, so what else could it be?
-
I’m not sure I’m understanding you correctly – you’re concerned about yellow hands and you have teeth sensitivity which your dentist is staying it’s due to a viral load? And they’re also saying it’s a sign of anorexia? Is that right?
-
Yes, my teeth sensitivity is because of some soars, but also she asked me if I was anorexic because of the loss of something in my teeth…. The soars are viral.
And I am putting all the pieces together from different resulta that have made me doubt so here I am

Sorry… the thing is she has been my dentist for a while and this is the first time ive been asked
-
what kind of toothpaste do you use? Does it contain SLS? Also, did she say you’ve lost enamel? This is common with bullemia because of the acidic purging. Do you think this is what your dentist was implying? Do they know your history?
By the way, this month we have both Dr David and Dr Agnes Roze; 2 amazing biological dentists. If you have any questions for them, please post it beneath their post in the event space and I’ll pass it on to them.

yes that was the implication, the thing that got me is she has been my dentist, so what changed… i told her my past history, but I am not understanding what changed. In 90% I use a non chemical natural toothpast.
And I thought my yellow hands could mean something
-
And I guess my question for Dr David and Dr Anges Roze would be, when I was a teenager (now I am 40, and haven’t had an eating disorder for 20 years), is there anything I can do to not have the consequences from past disorders? Like the loss of enamel? Thank you.

so yellow hands could have a few meanings but let’s start with diet first. Have you been eating a large amount of carotene rich foods by any chance? https://www.racgp.org.au/afp/2017/october/a-young-woman-with-yellow-hands-and-secondary-amen

can I ask you to please post it in their event post space (in Events) so it doesn’t get lost and I don’t forget!
-
YES , and to answer the other question I haven’t been eating Carotene-rich foods, and if I have its been minimal
-
So I read very carefully what carotene foods were and I was supprised thay there were way more than I realized. So it’s probably the reason.
Thank you all for letting this be a safe place to ask and discover with no judgment.
I think I came out very frustrated from my dentist appointment and everything got mixed in that conversation. When you have gone through a severe eating disorder (in my case when I was very young) and you get healed. It takes a LONG TIME for those around you to stop considering you as an eating disorder. So when my dentist asks me straight out if I have an eating disorder, it felt like J had to prove my self all over again…. Which I don’t. So I think my experience with ALL drs including dentist is “will someone believe me”. And I am grateful that there are spaces like this, that I can say YES THERE ARE! Thanks again for answering and helping me through my frustration. And I also apologize because I mixed all the information and wasn’t clear.Lots of love for you b and the team and this community
