fatigue, asthma, skin conditions and joint pain

  I need help figuring out where to start. I have a few different symptoms and I don't know if they are realated nor do I know what type of Dr. it would be best for me to see. I have always had stomach trouble. I am trying to eat better, (very picky) but "good for me food" it goes right through me. My mom and brother have the simular problem. I get bronchitis at least 2 times a year, but it is different latley. I feel like the bottom half of lungs are not expanding. Hostpital breathing treatments help, but only a little. Last time it took 5 treatments, three differnt times, plus 3 to 4 treatments a day at home. Over the last eight months, new symptoms have been added to make me think that I may be diabetic.? I am tierd all of the time. I urinate every hour or so. I can't get enough to drink. I have been fealing very faint. I am having alot more trouble with my weight than normal. I get chills with sweats, but I usually don't have a feaver. (several times a day) My cough is so bad that I have been asked several times if I have TB. It has that high pitch ring at the end. My joints hurt if I sit for more than 20 minutes, and ache through out the day regardless. I have red spots on my upper body. They started, about 7 years ago, on my neck and have spread to my chest, arms and face. They look like busted capullaries. ? Also, I get little holes in the skin on my feet and toes.
