I have suffered a long range of symptoms for over 2 years that can be explained by fibromyalgia or cfs. what type of doctor would one see to confirm?

Primary care doctor: See your regular doctor; many many symptoms are common to many diseases, and most pts w/ symptoms of fibromyalgia or chronic fatigue syndrome don't have any specific disease. There are, however, a few important things to be checked. Ecg (check heart rate, rhythm, ischemia), lab tests (electrolytes, thyroid, hydration) as well as history/physical exam. More possibilities: depression, nutrition, .

PCP and HOlLISTIC DR: You can go to your pco, ad or to a md practicing holistic medicine, check your hormones, dhea serotonin, adrenalin, prolactin, cortisol, adrenals, thyroid and antigens, .......

Rheumatologist, too.: Rheumatologists specialize in joint and autoimmune diseases. They can confirm what your symptoms seem to add up to be. However, a holistic/integrative/functional medicine physician can help you discover if food sensitivities, heavy metal toxicity, vitamin deficiencies, etc. Are giving you a clinical picture that is masquerading as cfs or fibromyalgia.
