He said it is not a side effect of my medication or my eating disorder and to see my gp. He checked my legs for swelling, which can be a symptom of my ed, and they are not swollen.

MY DOCTOR told me it is unrelated. If it was something to do with my eating disorder, he would know. He's treated 100s of people with bulimia.

dollparts85 -> RE: Legs sensitive to the touch? (3/6/2008 2:19:00 PM)
My gp is not qualified to treat bulimia therefore he would not tell me to go see her if it was related to it. Hell, I went to her for acid reflux and indigestion from puking everything I ate for months and she tells me to lose weight. I go in for severe cramping in my legs and feet and she tells me it is from being over weight without even doing any blood work. LOL she's an idiot.

quote: ORIGINAL: dollparts85 Other people ask medical questions here and you aren't a bunch of assholes to them. You try to help them. How am I any different? Just b/c I have an eating disorder? This is completely unrelated to that. It is not that you are different or special. It is that no matter what people say to you, it doesn't apply. Solution X won't work, solution Y won't work and neither will solution Z. You come across as totally unwilling to do your own work or to take control of your own life. Instead you come here and ask questions which really is fine. The not so fine part is the way you shoot down every suggestion or offer of help. If you don't like your doctor................................. then change doctors!If you don't know how to Google or look something up then go to a search engine and type in 'leg pain'. You can try 'skin sensitivity', 'leg cramps' 'leg discomfort' 'does leg pain have anything to do with eating disorders' and so on. You say you don't like your doctor or the answers she gives you, you also don't like the answers given to you here. Please look and see what the common denominator of all the above is.That common denominator is you. I don't want so sound harsh but you seem to respond to nothing else.

Personally, I see the whole thing as more mental than anything else. To get attention, good or bad, still attention.

dollparts85 -> RE: Legs sensitive to the touch? (3/6/2008 2:59:01 PM)
There aren't very many doctors medicaid will pay for so I have to see who they put me with.

Talk to someone with a medical degree... or not, could always wallow in misery and attention whoring.

It is your right put your personal shit out here for the world to see. It is our right to deduce whatever we wish from it. You don't like what we comment on, keep your personal shit personal. Simple really.

blackwinterbyrd -> RE: Legs sensitive to the touch? (3/6/2008 3:10:55 PM)
neuropathy. I know nothing about you. I gather that you are fat. neruropathy and diabetes. Go to the doc. Go to as many docs as you have to in order to be taken seriously.

dollparts85 -> RE: Legs sensitive to the touch? (3/6/2008 3:18:16 PM)
I don't have diabetes...I've been tested several times recently...as recently as Nov...my blood sugar was 91, which I was told is normal.

Asking all these questions and putting your health and personal details out there,plus the Bulimia, It all seems like a cry for attention. Who's attention were you lacking growing up?

lusciouslips19 -> RE: Legs sensitive to the touch? (3/6/2008 3:25:45 PM)
Hopefully the eating disorder and abuses to your body have not caused neuropathy. Possible explanation for pins and needles or sensitivities to touch is something to do with your nerve pathways. Or maybe just restless leg syndrome. I am not a doctor though,so getting my advice as a massage therapist is informed but not a diagnosis.

Dangit Black! [sm=boxer.gif] I edited that word out of my post so she wouldn't educate herself online and become an expert on that condition and decide she doesn't need to see her doctor for it. Cali

camille65 -> RE: Legs sensitive to the touch? (3/6/2008 3:28:52 PM)
(I left it out as well)I've RLS and neuropathy, sometimes OP it takes more than one doctor and more than one visit to diagnose a problem. Serious medical problems are unlikely to be solved on a message board.

dollparts85 -> RE: Legs sensitive to the touch? (3/6/2008 3:29:30 PM)
I never said I don't need to see a doctor. I SAID I WAS GOING TO SEE MY DOCTOR SOON. I would just like to hear from other people as to what it could be. My dad is busy and stuff and it's hard to get a time that he is free to take me to my appointments. I have a lot of appointments already.

dollparts85 -> RE: Legs sensitive to the touch? (3/6/2008 3:30:57 PM)
I don't think this is serious? Is it? I figured it was just poor circulation...I've always had bad circulation...like my finger nails are always blue and stuff...
