Update: I've spoken to my Dr, despite my concerns he is reluctant to refer me to a specialist. However, he is sending me for further blood tests. Are these likely to reveal anything or is it a waste of time? If so I'll just bite the bullet and go private.

@change25 Did your doctor say what the additional blood tests would be looking for? Just wondering if he was blowing off your concerns or really trying to help determine what is causing your symptoms. I imagine a blood test can find a lot of potential causes if they are testing for those specific conditions in the blood.

thing is, why not refer you to a specialist and let the specialist decide ? they prioritize and you may have to wait a while but will put your mind at ease and may have seen many cases such as yours over the years....although maybe wait til next results of blood test? J.
