Hi,
I'm seeking some advice because I'm finally feeling the years I spent binge eating and indulging in sugar. Since like a month or maybe a bit less whenever I had a binge day where I would eat crisps and stuff like snickers/ chocolate I would start feeling a sort of pressure in my head/ brain. However, the last time I had one of those binge day, about a week ago the pressure didn't leave and I'm kind of really afraid that I'm going to have aneurym or something like that. It's like the sugar went straight tp my brain. I was wondering if someone had ever experienced something similar. I know I brought it all on myself.
The way I've been eating, especially these last two years was horrible. The only thing is that I'm skinny and people often assume that I'm healthy. If only they knew... I feel like a fraud. Even my family doesn't realize how badly I ate or that I'd been seriously struggling with binge eating. Asides, from the head/brain thing, I suspect that I have gallstones and something with my kidney, because I've feeling very mild pain (liver/gallbladder) and pressure (kidney). Both of my knees must also be inflamed because I feel mild pain in both every now and then, especially the left one. Ever now and then, I also fell stingy sensation in my thighs. By the way, I've never felt full blown pain anywhere where it was impossible for me to stand up or go about my day or where I had to be rushed to hospital. And the pain I feel is not ongoing.
These past days I ate better. After all I felt my was in danger. The pain/ sensation were still there but not while I ate. I've started read some of the books recommended reading for health and diet, so I realize how terrible what I've been doing was. And I'm also really scared that whatever I did is irreversible. I'm also scared because I'm only 22 and if my health is deteriorating now while I'm still young, I'm wondering how it's going to be in a decade. By the way, two years ago I had a tingling sensation in my fingers and feet and it turned out I had a deficit in calcium and vitamin D. I was given some supplement and the tingling went away. Once I wasn't suffering from anything I took the supplement on and off but I hadn't taken it in like more than a year. So, besides my extremely poor diet, I wonder if this isn't affecting me as well. Also, recently since I read the benefit of magnesium, I bought magnesium. I started taking them last Saturday. I also started taking vitamin D supplement at the same time. A day after or so after, I started feeling some pain in my hips and stopped taking both. I was wondering if this had happened to anyone else too.
I'm seeing the GP next week, but any advice would be really helpful would be really appreciated because I'm like really, really scared and disappointed in myself right now. Thank you.
