Has anyone else developed IBS because of their ED? I have BAD IBS-C and one of my doctors I see said it’s likely caused by bulimia and laxative abuse. Anyone else experience this?

      I personally had IBS before BED and Bulimia because I've had constipation problems since I was like 3, but I can say that the eating disorders made it way worse.

      Yes, after I quit purging I had really bad stomach problems that I still carry with today.

      Not IBS but I have terrible indegestion from years of purging, things that have helped has been slowing down while eating and safe consumption of liquid calories when my body can't handle any more food.
