Guest guest Posted July 9, 2000 Report Share Posted July 9, 2000 Hi. I'm making an appointment to see my GP to get tested for for various disorders I was never tested for. Can anyone help me with two questions I have: 1) Am I missing anything from the list below? I have already seen an endocrinologist who took care of the hormone aspect. 2) Should I go to my GP and have him do these tests, or should I go to a specialist for all or some of the tests, and if so, which? Thanks everyone.
