97.1 lbs. BMI: 16.8. Percentile for my age and height: 3rd.

Went to my GP today... after getting my prescription for my reflux med, we talked for a good while about my ED, after I said to her that I thought I might be anemic or something. But she said the symptoms I’m having could also be caused by dehydration and/or slight hypoglycemia from the restricting. Nonetheless, she set up some stuff to get done for bloodwork.

And then... I decided to let her refer me back to the IOP program in my province. I’ve been there twice already and it didn’t stick, but neither of us could think of anything else to do, and hopefully, if they can’t help me, they can at least assist me in the process of getting what I need somewhere else. So tomorrow I go for the bloodwork and also an EKG, and next Thursday I have a double-booked appointment so she can fill out yet another intake sheet, which will include taking my weight and doing my vitals lying and standing. Fuuuuun times. :/

I would love to get out of this ED trap... I really would. But the treatment actually has to be decent. I’m not going to stand for any more of this half-assed treatment I’ve been thrown before, like a beggar being thrown some pennies. If it’s not going to work, I’m not going to fucking do it. Period. But I will give this a chance and see where it leads me, because, again, they might be able to figure out a program that can REALLY help me if they can’t, and help me get the proper letters and things written so the province actually funds it, etc etc.
