Thyroid disease or eating disorder - how can I tell if I should be worried for a friend? |
After a night of drinking (college student) one of my friends passed out cold in a store while standing beside me. She is a model and is beautiful, but she is also extremely skinny as many models are. She does has thyroid problems and had missed about 3 days of her prescription before the party. She says this is why she passed out, she says it has never happened before, and she says there is nothing to worry about. Just my thoughts but for her to say its because she hadnt taken her thyroid medication for 3 days before the party and that it had never happened before but it was nothing to worry about kind of sends mixed messages -- u cant tell could have been the drinking/fatigue as well if she semms to keep on getting skinnier and more frailish bonieshy then have a talk with her and tell her you are worried about her and she is skinny enough!! I wouldn't worry about it. If she says it was because she missed her prescription, you should believe her. Also, people do sometimes pass out after drinking too much, particularly if they're skinny, because their bodies can't hold alcohol as well. an over active thyroid causes you to eat more and sleep more |
