What type of doctors should I be seeing?

[supermomma531]

Hi there. I have been diagnosed with fibromyalgia, arthritis, degenerative disc disease, scoliosis, bronchial-asthma, and am still getting tested for several other issues. My question is this:  Which type of doctors should I be seeing and how often? At this point and time for myself, I am only seeing my family doctor and a respiratory specialist. My family doctor only has me taking robaxacet for the pain and I am on salbutmol and advair for my breathing issues, as well as a multi-vitamin which I cannot take everyday due to the fact that it makes me feel nauseated. I am also on lozec for acid reflux. I sometimes take Tylenol for the arthritis. Should I be seeing a neurologist? I have no clue. I tend to get a lot of headaches/migraines. I have to see a doctor for my shoulder because I have a torn rotator cuff. That may need surgery but I don't know yet. I need answers so that I can get my own health on track. It is very hard to do so when no one seems to want to help. I hope that someone can give some advice. Thank you.

I  would recommend the following:
a. Orthopedic physician for the arthritis, degenerative disc disease and the torn rotator cuff
b. Neurologist for the fibromyalgia
c. Respiratory specialist for the asthma
d. Family physician for referrals to specialists and situations that don't require a specialist.  He/she should be able to manage your acid reflux issue.  

How often to see each one depends on what problems you are having and the recommendations of the physicians.  

Hope you don't take the multivitamin on an empty stomach; plenty of water and with food.
