Body Pain

I've had abdominal pain for over six months now and have had numerous tests that include; colonscope, endescope, CT scan, Hydascan, Blood Tests, Brain Scan, etc...  With no results.  In addition, to the abdominal pain I have sharp pains in my knees, ankles, elbows, feet, head and at the numerous nodules on my body.  I've been to an Internist, Gastrologist, Surgeon and Chiropractor with no results.  Also, my rib cage in the front and back often is very sore and tender to the touch along with my sternum.  My questions are what type of doctor would you suggest I visit next and do you have any idea what type(s) of problem I've been experiencing.  

Thank you for your assistance.

Thanks for your comment.  I'm hoping to schedule an appointment with a Rheumatologist but will consider a Neurologist as well.

Hi,

I would suggest a Neurologist for evaluation of Fibromyalgia.  Nerve pain can run thru your entire body.  My Aunt has it and has terrible abdominal pain.  She works with a pain management doc.
