Have Fibromyalgia, CHF. Test Result Shows Reactive Mono, EBV, Measles. Symptoms Of Fibro Or Hypothyroidism?

I had a partial thyroidectomy in 2008. I am on a compound RX of reverse T 3. My thyroid test results was 2.8. One doctor says that is low and RX needs increased. Another doctor said that is fine as long as I am not having any symptoms. My hair is thinning, I am exhausted all the time. My weight is gradually increasing. But I have Fibromyalgia and CHF. Tests results showed I had reactivated mono, EBV, parvo and three day measles. My question is how do I know if my symptoms are from the fibro or hypothyroidism?
