My name is Shelly and I'm from Melbourne Australia. I am 38 years old. I am married with 3 children. I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia when I was 20 but have shown signs of it since I was around 7-8 years old. When I was 8 years old I was diagnosed with Tourette's Syndrome. Thank goodness I have 99.9% grown out of it. I recently went to a specialist here in Melbourne for my FM and walked away very dissapointed. In all these years I am yet to find a doctor to help me. I live on over the counter pain meds most of my life. I have come onto this forum to see if I can find a good doctor here in Melbourne that would be able to help me. I am getting very tired. It's not easy having FM. I am lucky to have wonderful understanding parents that listen to me on my bad days, but I'm also happy that there are forums like this to chat with others who are going through what I am feeling each and every day.
