Believe me, I'm very familiar with cyproheptidine.
The problem is, anorexia is not about lack of appetite -- I know I'm hungry all the time, and obsessed with food. Right now, I'm increasing my intake, which is very frightening, and it's difficult because I get overstuffed and nauseous when I eat more than two or three ounces of food. The dietitian is working with me on this, and on increasing my intake sensibly.
The psychological side is the problem, despite the food being the most obvious sign of it. Thank you for the suggestion, which is a good one for non-psychological lack of appetite.
