You might want to ask for tests for Lyme Disease.  Yes, we do have it in California despite many doctors who think we don't.  

This document has a good symptom list that you can look at.  Lyme is a confusing and complicated disease that can be difficult to diagnose as it mimics so many other things.

I hope this helps.
