Nero is just what it says. Many problems faced by endocrinology are very close to nero. My exper. has been more with cardiovascular endocrinology, but it is just a off shoot of the subspecialty endo.
Some people do a fellowship in cardio or a fellowship in endo. For example I also have a PhD that is cardiovascular, Nero and diabetes focused. I will do a fellowship in Endo, and will continue to focus on diabetes and cardio. Some people just have their "thing" with IM.
I like cardio and endo, but would not want to do a pure fellowship in cardio because I want to have a family life.
Feel free to let me know if you have any other ?.
