Which doctor to consult for high D-Dimer, unexplained bruising, and autoimmune tests?

I have a neurological history as well as history involving unexplained muscular pain issues. I had unexplained bruising as well as stomach pain and swelling that led me to the emergency room where my D-Dimer level was high. Now that I am generally stabilized, which doctor would I go to to run possible labs on any autoimmune diseases I have that may cause it (suggestion of the hospital). Would I have to go to a specialist to get my blood tested?

  • It’s important to have a spécialistes point of view. You can see the Rhumatologist and the internal médecine who are specialist in inflammatory diseases.
