Good Luck! I want to wish you all the best in your quest to beat anorexia. Its difficult to take the first step but you've already shown courage in writing to Alice, so I think you have what it takes. I think Alice's idea of preparing a list of symptoms can definitely help to ease the pain of discussing them with a doctor, and I would add that you could take the list with you, so if you are really stuck for words you can just hand them something in writing. Best wishes!
