If your Pdoc feel that this is a somatic rather than a psychiatri illness, than he or she should write a letter or call the gp office on record to request that you be checked for a physical malady. They might well take the other physician more seriously than they will take you, and having a real doc's voice on the other end of the phone will have more punch than having you just saying, "my pdoc said for me to tell you..." because a psych patient generally isn't taken very serously. This is just the voice of experience speaking. HUGGGGSSS S and good luck. Also, Depression can predispose you for a lot of the chronic fatigue and pain type problems, so please don't let them put you off.
