Hopefully, help.: Here's a link that may inform you a bit - http://eatingdisorder.Org/eating-disorder-information/online-self-assessment/. Your doctor will probably ask this type of questions and might do lab tests. If you are in immediate danger, you might be advised to go to a hospital. If not, you might get referrals to a therapist who is a specialist in eating disorders. Good luck with getting better - you can!
