Dear Chrisee,
From what you are saying, it sounds like the years of bulimia have taken a toll on your body. Cardiac problems are common among bulimics. I would advise you to seek medical attention preferably from a medical doctor who specializes in treating bulimics. You always want to rule out medical conditions, prior to psychological concerns. There could be heart issues and/or anxiety concerns.
If you would like further information on bulimia, visit the bella vita website.
