Joint pains ,body aches , fatigue with elevation of inflammatory markers suggest likely autoimmune mediated disorder like rheumatoid arthritis or lupus etc so yes Rheumatologist will do it's evaluation with tests especially RA factor , Anti CCP antibodies ,ANA test and further autoimmune testing then treatment accordingly.
Meanwhile you can request your PCP to check your calcium and vitamin D3 levels as their deficiencies can also cause similar manifestations.
Physiotherapy of muscles would also be helpful
