Bulimia nervosa.


For what type of poisons is vomiting dangerous and why?

It is dangerous to induce vomiting after the consumption of chemical cleaners or any poisons with a highly acidic or alkaline content because they will burn your esophagus as you vomit.

How can you hide your vomiting from your boyfriend?

Why are you vomiting in the first place? If you are ill, it's best to just tell him about it, because he'll find out anyway. If you are vomiting to control your weight or eating habits, I have just one thing to say: STOP NOW! I'm an ER nurse, and I've seen first-hand the irreversible damage people do to themselves by vomiting for the sake of staying thin. Trust me, it's not worth it. Better to be a little heavy than be dead. STOP VOMITING ASAP IF YOUR FORCING YOURSELF TO DO IT. IT SOUNDS LIKE BULEMIA WHICH IS A VERY DANGEROUS EATING DISORDER. YOU DAMAGE YOUR THROAT, STOMACH AND WORSE YET YOUR HEART. GO SPEAK TO A HEALTH PROFESSIONAL ABOUT THIS BEFORE ITS TOO LATE...

If you are diagnosed with schizo-effective disorder can your future children inherit the disorder?

The allele for schizo-effective disorder is recessive, meaning that a person must inherit two genes (one from mom, one from dad), to actually have the disorder.It also means that if you or your partner has the disorder,If one of your families has no history of the disorder, chances are good thatLet's say schizo-effective disorder is represented with S or s.(lowercase symbolizes recessive, and capital is dominant)If you are diagnosed with Schizo-effective disorder, your genotype is ss.This is also called homozygous recessive.Let's say your spouse has no family history for at least 4 or 5 generations of this disorder. It is safe to assume, then, that he/she is homozygous dominant, or SS.The only allele you can pass on to your children is the recessive allele, since you have no dominant variation, and you must pass on one allele per gene to your children. This means that no matter what, your children carry the gene for schizo-effective disorder.The only allele your partner/spouse can pass on is the dominant allele, since we have made the assumption that both of her/his inherited alleles are 'normal' (negative for schizo-effective disorder).The dominant allele cancels out the effects of the recessive allele, so none of your children can actually have the disorder, but your grandchildren might, unless your children find another homozygous dominant partner.Note: Simply because a person does not have schizo-effective disorder does not mean that they are homozygous dominant. They may also be heterozygous, (Ss) like your children. this gives a 1/4 chance that your grandchildren will have the disorder. (this is also known as a monohybrid cross).

It is also the self-induced vomiting, purging, or fasting.Anorexia is: eating less foods, lack/loss of appetite or of eatingA lack or loss of appetite for food which could be caused by a medical conditionAn emotional disorder caused by a desire to not eat in order to lose weight.Bulimia is forcing yourself to eat to throw up, forcing yourself to lose/gain weight, but this could be because of an medical condition, emotional disorder, and even because of depression.As for anorexia, anorexia is when you stop eating as much food as you used to, or you eat less food, and this can also be caused by an emotional disorder. and you can die.and i hope this answers your question and if i doesn't, well, at least i tried and responded to your question.-Kimberly


Does vomiting get rid of all caloric intake?

No. Also, vomiting to reduce caloric intake is a symptom of a disorder called bulimia, and if you have been vomiting to do this then you should seek out help from a doctor or counselor immediately. Bulimia can be very dangerous, and repeated vomiting can also damage the esophagus causing a condition called Barrett's Esophagus (among other problems). Get help immediately--you'll be glad you did. Answer To this day I have a damaged valve in my esophagus, the one that is supposed to keep your food in your stomach, from forcing myself to vomit. Now I have to take medicine every day or I can't keep the acid in my stomach from backing up into my esophagus. Vomiting on purpose can also damage your teeth, causing tooth decay. It can also damage your heart, and your skin will begin to lose its elasticity because it has no fat under it. You can end up dead or very sick. Please get help today. See the Related Links.
