Allison is attending a college away from home. She returned home a few days ago for a semester break, and her parents were alarmed to see her significant weight loss. The mother states that Allison has weighed “around 130 pounds” for the past few years but “looked a little thinner” two months ago, the last time she was home. The mother further states that Allison seemed “not herself” then, but Allison would only say that she had a challenging class “stressing her out.” The mother describes Allison as a “perfectionist,” “shy,” and a “worrier.” Allison denies sexual abuse or substance use. Amenorrhoeic and pregnancy test is negative. She has some edema of the ankles. The client was admitted for evaluation, physical stabilization, and potential refeeding. The client says she drinks a lot of water, so she’s not often hungry. Identify if each finding is concerning or not. Select one answer in each row.
