I don't have any advice beyond what everyone else has already said... I just wanted to say that YES, I've gotten those accusations before too, and it really does bug me. Any time I go through my "bad spells", where I really, literally, can't eat ANYTHING, people around me start asking me if I'm anorexic. Mind you, I don't look anorexic. I'm a reasonable weight for my height. But sometimes people assume things... and while I'm perfectly comfortable talking about bowel function with my poor boyfriend, I'd rather not discuss it with parents or most friends, either. For them, I usually just say that I have stomach problems and leave it at that... hey, I've explained myself, they can assume whatever they like.
Slightly off topic, the best comment ever, though, was the incredibly sensitive (note the sarcasm) former coworker who asked me if I was "dying of something". Just like that! Gee, thanks!
