Hi there.
First of all i think if you are getting swelling around your joints you need to get an Arthritis Panel done as you might be suffering from arthritis too.
Fibromyalgia mostly involves the muscles of the back and not the joints.
Then show the reports to a local immunologist for proper medication.
