? Fibromyalgia: 29y female with chronic "undiagnosed joint pain & numbness" hopefully saw Rheumatologist to be evaluated for fibromyalgia. New onset headaches are compatible with Fibromyalgia, but they first need to be evaluated, by a Neurologist, to rule out other causes such as tumors, migraines, autoimmune problems, hypertension, etc.
