Would a physical exam show i have had bulimia?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Physical bulimia: many cases of bulimia go unrecognized. However, signs that may be evident are callouses on the fingers, erosion of dental enamel, burst blood vessels in the eye - routine blood tests may also show abnormalities secondary to vomiting (potassium levels)
