Edema Problems.. Need Help

I Have Been Recovering From
kaileyb – 05/22/2010 – 16:20

I have been recovering from anorexia however in the past three months I have fallen off track. Now I am experiencing edema in my legs, ankles, knees, stomach, face, and possibly other joints such as my tailbone but I don’t know if I’m just imagining those. I am wondering what I should do besides seeking medical help (I have an appointment in 2 weeks but that is the soonest I can be seen). I have gained about 5 pounds in two days and it is a bit overwhleming, and I would like to get rid of the edema as soon as possible and begin my recovery again because this is very uncomfortable and is a well needed wake up call.

Thanks for any help!
