A DANCER and entertainer who battled eating disorders and addiction was repeatedly turned down for specialist help as she was considered 'too complex, an inquest has heard.
Charlene Roberts, from Middleton, had been diagnosed with bulimia and later anorexia.
Rochdale Coroners Court heard this week how she developed a 'very rare addiction' to a type of over-the-counter antihistamine, which the M.E.N. is not naming. She was refused 18 different placements by specialist eating disorder clinics because of her drug abuse, the inquest heard.
Ms Roberts died aged 35 on January 12, at Fairfield General Hospital, in Bury. The inquest, which could run for two weeks, is yet to hear details about how she died.
