I am considering going to a local genetic specialist to seek diagnosis. I’ve only asked my rheumatologist about it and he said I could get genetic counseling if I want but he seemed kind of flippant about it. I think I fit a decent amount of the 2017 diagnostic criteria but am unsure about some of them in Part A. While no one in my family is diagnosed, we all have the same symptoms. And I have all of Part C. Do I need to have this filled out by a doctor before I go? Can I just make an appointment with the geneticist? What do I take with me?
