Chest pain

Hi,

I binge and purge a couple of times a week. I know I need to stop this and am working on it. I purged Tuesday and Wednesday this week, since then I have been having horrible chest pains. Started in my left side and has now got to my right but mostly on my left. Feels very tight and is very uncomfortable. Is this a common side affect from purging? I'm really worried. Tia

If you are worried, please call 111 who can advise you (they may want you to get checked out)
Hope all goes OK though. I've had very restrictive eating for much of my life, so I can sympathise with you. But it's better to be on the safe side so I would call them x

Thank you for replying. I will go to the walk in tomorrow if it hasn't eased. Thank you.

Please seek medical advice now. You need to rule out it being something serious.

Purpledaisies is right OP. Just give them a call now and they will advise. Much safer that way
