What Kind of Dr. Should I See For This? Posted: 11-25-07 17:42pm


Hi. I have many symptoms that seem unconnected but I think they might be. I'm not asking what I have, but wondering if someone knows what kind of doctor would be the most qualified to make a diagnosis. I am keen on seeing someone soon, since my gyno is recommending surgery for one of the symptoms and before surgery I want to see if I have some kind of autoimmune disorder. I don't know why -but I feel like maybe the symptoms are connected. What kind of Dr. would be able to take a complete view of the following symptoms: --severe pelvic pain --jaw pain / tmj (diagnosed by dentist using x-ray and exam) --get infections easily (two tooth abscess on one side of jaw, etc.) --frequent colds & flu --cysts on various parts of body (some surgically removed) --sore/swollen joints in hands --headaches / earaches --already diagnosed with wacky and rare skin allergy where my body produces hystimine --gyno strongly suspects adenomyosis and is recommending hysterectomy Thanks

I would have to say one who specializes in Immue disorders. An Infectious Deasese physician. I have one for my MRSA. And I catch everything under the sun. You may have so many that could cause you to see more the one specialist.
