Bulimia Nervosa - Prognosis
Bulimia may become chronic. That is, it can turn into an ongoing problem that lasts for many years. In such cases, it can cause a number of health problems, including seizures, irregular heartbeat, and thin bones. On rare occasions, bulimia can be fatal. Early treatment is the key to a promising prognosis. People who learn to deal with their problems of self-image can often be cured of the condition and can go on to lead normal, productive lives.
