Best Answer

Eating Disorders Not Otherwise Specified / EDNOSis a general classification for a person who does not fit specifically into one of the medical diagnostic categories. One common element to all eating disorders including EDNOS is low self-esteem.Those with EDNOS characteristics may constantly shift between different eating disorders. This shifting or switching can complicate providing a specific professional medical diagnosis for the patient.
