[QUOTE="Marcie Mac, post: 383247, member: 47"] I have been following your story Jen - I have no experience with eating disorders only a true swallowing disorder (not a phobia) with SO. But I know how hard it is to trust in what doctors do that seem to go against the grain in what you feel in your heart. Having said that, I would so strongly suggest that you get some medication for yourself to ease your own anxiety about this whole process so you can calmly think things thru and put your concerns down in writing and discuss them calmly with the doctors. I know you feel you can "do this on your own" - been there done that and hated to have to medicate myself in the past to deal with various issues - I am a strong person and felt I didn't need those medications. In hindsight I was wong for that belief. I can't say whether the doctors approach is right or wrong, whats good for one difficult child isn't good for another so am not going to do the armchair quarterback. I can "see" that you are totally frantic over this - I would be myself - especially if there is no success, the mention of "feeding tubes" would put me totally around the bend. But you seriously have to get some control over you cause this zinging up there and back, not sleeping, crying, going over this over and over and over in your mind and now dealing with an X isn't good for you my dear.
