What Causes Depression While Suffering From Fibromyalgia?

What type of doctor should I see to determine is my depression and other emotional issues are from the effects of at least 6 concussions in my life or if they are psychiatric? I have fibromyalgia and extreme degenerative spine issues. I have been taking Cymbalta 60 mg for at least 10 years.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

You should consult a neurologist. If no organic cause is found then psychiatric referral can be done.

Wishing you the best of health!
