Your GP is probably going to say what my GP said......unless you are physically underweight & you need medical attention.....they leave the psychological part & any medicine (my pdoc wanted to prescribe a psych med that caused weight gain). My GP only took over the care when I needed to be in the medical hospital.....he monitored my weight for awhile when it was going down so drastically. I had been in the hospital a few months earlier with asthma/bronchitis because of the smoke from a forest fire & the anorexia basically started at that point in time then the stress from my mother going down hill with her cancer, then the trauma from the home care person......so I was a huge mess from everything psychological & physical hit all at the same time. My GP initially put me in the hospital to do tests to see if there was something physically wrong that was causing the weight loss while at the same time, he knew that I had dealt with anorexia about 10 years prior......while in the hospital, I still wasn't eating & aniema hit & then IV nutrition through a central line was necessary which hit at the same time as my mother's funeral so I left the hospital long enough for that then came back for the IV nutrition....the hospital's pdoc (not my own) said that I would NOT survive if I left the hospital....my GP looked the other way & allowed me to go AMA as the pdoc wanted to put me on a hold because he thought it was a danger to allow me to leave....interesting conflict that caused........

Anyway, as soon as I was medically stable even though my weight was still too low, my GP only continued to monitor my weight & do blood tests on & off to make sure I didn't need the medical care of the hospital......but as far as the treatment for the anorexia/ED......that's up to the pdoc & T's work with us.
