A member asked:
My heart is beating fast because of my diet, do i have an eating disorder or can i treat it on my own?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
You can't treat: Rapid heartbeat or an eating disorder on your own. Both of those are dangerous situations. Please start by seeing your doc. He/she can assess your heartbeat and refer to a cardiologist if needed. Eating disorders can lead to cardiac problems. (singer karen carpenter died from these circumstances.) please get help from the doc or an eating disorder specialist so you can be happy and healthy.
