Hiya <IMG alt="image" alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/tongue.gif"&gt;
This problem is not about me...for once! Right before i met my boyfriend he said he was sick all the time, said it was food poisening! But thats was over 2yrs ago! But im really worried he has just told me recently that after mainly every meal hes sick! Then he said it runs in the family his gran,mum,brother all had this! He then reckoned it might be some sort of stomach cancer, or absess! Hes not seen a doctor yet but is soon! Is this dangerous? Cause i dont want to lose him caouse of this???
Love Miss_Kxxxxx

    ive never heard anything like that before but i guess it could be possible. is there any chance he is lieing to you and is bulimic?? have u noticed any weight loss or anything like that??? either way make sure he goes to see a doc so ur mind can be put at rest and so he can get some help!!!

    Remember that bulimics often don't show any weight loss because they gorge and then puke, to put it bluntly <IMG alt="image" alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/tongue.gif"&gt;

    I would definitely be suspicious and get him to go to a doctor, especially as he seems to keep changing his excuses. But don't get worried at the moment, just be there for him and encourage him to talk about any problems he may have.

    If it is bulimia that's a psychological illness and if he has you as a stable base it will help him a lot. And if it is an allergy or something more serious the doctors will be able to sort it out or give you guys more information than we can here.

    Good luck whatever happens <IMG alt="image" alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/smile.gif"&gt;
