Full rheumatology: workup should including CBC, sed rate DS ANA, Rheumatoid factor, LE prep. serum completment, anti-thyroid antidoe and serum immunoglobins ( with hemoglobin electrophoresis) as a minimum. usually much more complex workups by specialists. Your symtoms certainly warrant further investigation.
