Diagnosed With Lupus. Earlier Taken T3 For Thyroid Issues. Have Hair Loss, Joint Pain, Vision Issues, Brain Fog, Fatigue, Weight Gain

I need to find a doctor for myself. I was DX with Lupus nearly 20 years ago and then again when I went to seek answers 5 years ago, the doctor asked me if anyone had ever mentioned I had Lupus. I'm not full-on with symptoms again, but not sure who I should see. I used to take T3 for a thyroid issue, too. I just don't want to be bounced from person to person. I have hair loss, skin / joint/ muscle pain, skin raised redness/rashes, more frequent migraines (yes, DX as true migraines), vision issues, brain fog, fatigue that seems to be ruling my life. I just have to drop and sleep, yet never sleep more than 4 hours at a time in the night. I am gaining weight even though I eat very healthy. I was DX in August via a colonoscopy of diverticulitis (still having issues with blood in my stools). Oh, I am 44.
