Could be: You're asking the right question. I'm assuming that what I'm about to recommend hasn't been done. If you are doubtful that the classic profile of anorexia nervosa fits you, then organic causes of your problem need to be ruled out. E.g. achalasia and celiac disease among others. Consider finding an astute gastroenterologist who will start by taking a really good history. That's key.
