Unable To Eat. Losing Weight. Vomiting While Eating. Cause?
I'm having a very hard time eating. In the last month I have gone from 250lbs to 222.4lbs. I can't eat, when I do get "hungry" I dont get an upset stomach, my stomach feels like its eating itself. When I try to eat when this feeling comes I gag or vomit. I gag at the thought of eating, it feels like my throat is closing itself off so no food could even enter if I tried eating. Otherwise, when I can push food down I can only eat a few bites before I feel uncomfortably full. Im getting really scared that something serious is wrong... These symptoms have been going on for the last 4 months or so.
