Hi and thanks for the query,
I do think it might be necessary to get a comprehensive care, and the opinion of an internist for follow up and your primary care physician could be helpful. A complete clinical and biological review to determine the actual causes of the symptoms, rhuematological review and the opinion of a psychologist/psychiatrist could be useful in drawing up the initial management plan. I think what is important is not the drugs only, but the feedback and being constantly in touch with your doctor. thanks and hope this helps.
