https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKaX0dQwEUgTafzCZ2yEjUQ- She has a Patreon for people to pay her to be "sick".
- She appears to have a few genuine illnesses, but overall contradicts herself 99% of the time.
- She has a button tube but shoves crap food into her pie hole most of the day. Claims she cannot tolerate her formula, and has to get a special type, but can eat fried crap.
- She has a service dog (Harlow) who does tasks that she is quite capable of doing (like grabbing a blanket across the room).
- Her service dog does not get worked the way a service dog should.
- She will not respond to messages online (except on her Patreon) because of "safety issues" (though we're pretty sure it's because she wants money to talk to her).
- She will not allow people to send her mail because she is too sick.
- Refers to herself as a "genetic anomaly".
- Claims to have EDS, POTS, narcolepsy, cataplexy, autism, unspecified immune problems, a mutated mitochondria, and too many other things. Surprisingly, Factitious Disorder is not on her list.
- She appears to be copying Mary Fray.
She enjoys deleting comments that call her out, and has an excuse or explanation for everything, something that is found psychologically in pathological liars.
Everyone is tired of her, even her family, and some people in the Munchie thread, so here's a place to talk about her to your heart's content

As someone on the spectrum, with POTS, I can definitely say without a doubt Jacquie doesn't have autism. I followed her videos for a few months, her posture, the way she talks, isn't typical of someone on the spectrum. Disney would be a truly autistic person's worst nightmare. People with autism tend to have 'special interests' usually if they were interested in medical things, they'd go and get a job in that field, rather than be focused on injecting themselves with drugs they don't need and buying things like wheelchairs, walkers, IV poles, pulse oximeters & stuff to feed that obsession.
Those on the spectrum usually have problems with self care, Jaquie pays way too much attention to how she looks, no one on the spectrum I've ever met has been that self absorbed, vain & manipulative. She appears to be rather sociopathic, with the way she treats Judd & other people around her. She's also doing completely the opposite of what someone who truly suffers POTS would do. If you had super severe POTS, most of your time would be spent laying down, without the energy to go to the supermarket, pick up a camera or clean the house, let alone go to Disney. Her super severe 130 beats a minute is not high at all, notice how she didn't point the camera toward herself when she was filming that heart rate? A person with severe POTS doesn't freak out unless their heart rate is like 170. She's the most munchie person I ever did see. Believe she has antisocial personality disorder.
Sage for Rage.
No. 422721
>>422542Autistic people aren't intentionally manipulative, they don't have the social grace or cognitive empathy to do so (at least discreetly or effectively). A lot of neurotypical people think autistic people are manipulative. In fact, NPD/socipathy frequently presents in the same way as autism, so the two often look the same from the outside, even though they are fundamentally different. An autistic person doesn't view "manipulation" the way a non-autistic would.
>>422711Disney is not necessarily a "truly autistic person's worst nightmare", since autism is a spectrum. Probably not the highest on the list for "Best place ever", unless it IS their special interest. But plenty of autistic people can enjoy Disneyland/world within limits.
However, from the little I've seen of her in videos, it does seem like she has pretty good executive functioning, which is not very autistic. Also anon, you didn't sage.
No. 422776
>>422721She has excellent executive functioning skills. Her ability to manage a YT site, Patreon page, all her medical appointments, home health needs, insurance, special diet for Harlow, the ability to organize her training from puppyhood forward, and so on, require a lot of attention and organization. Her medical binder is probably a work of art.
Patreon seems on a decreasing trend. It was at 218 in September, dropped below into the 190s at the start of Oct. (when people don't renew, I assume), crept up during the month, dropped again at the start of Nov. to 190s and now sits at 202. Janiece's is at 9.
What's up with the sudden obsessive interest in her blood sugar? Is this a continued Mary/desire for a Dexcom obsession?

As someone with autism (I also research autism and mental health as a postgrad), I think it is very hard to say if Jaquie has ASD.
She has odd movements (her hand gestures) but these only start in later videos.
She claims to have sensory issues but rarely wears her headphones and we see that she previously owned t-shirts she now says she can't manage. As an adult you simply don't buy clothes you don't like whether you're aware it is an 'autistic thing' or not.
She has good focus and executive functioning however we see her struggle when the situation isn't in her control. She uses her symptoms to excuse herself or bring the situation back in to her control. Whilst people with autism aren't manipulative in the typical sense when you're in a situation you can't cope with you might do extreme things to get out of that situation.
Her 'special topic' or obsession could easily be chronic illness and social media.
Women on the spectrum are generally more able to 'camoflage' or 'mask' their symptoms and tend to copy other girls at school in an attempt to cope. This may explain Jaquie's obsessive copying of Mary Frey.
HOWEVER people with autism tend to follow rules to the letter, for instance medical advice. Jaquie repeatedly doesn't follow medical advice/ doctor shops. She also shows a very good ability to get what she wants from doctors, seemingly without slipping up and presumably whilst being verbal in all these appointments etc.
I'm very high functioning, I have degrees, I do research, however my executive functioning is less than Jaquie's and I require special support for medical appointments/ emergency visits and some minor adaptations at work.
Overall I don't think Jaquie does have autism, though she may be mis-diagnosed. If she went through diagnostics for an autism spectrum disorder they would have also screened for depression, OCD, anxiety and other common comorbidities/ differentials. So the fact she doesn't have/ doesn't share any mention of depression and anxiety (or the more fashionable OCD) is highly questionable.

>>422836Has she ever said what kind of angioedema she has. I mean I pressume not drug induced but other than that it is caused by the most common food allergies (nuts, shellfish, milk, eggs), insect bites and stings and latex.
There is a genetic type "The fault affects the gene responsible for the production of a substance called C1 esterase inhibitor. If you don't have enough of this, the immune system can occasionally "misfire" and cause angioedema."
Other than that it is largely stress, be that mental stress or stress on the body due to infection/injury.
The way she describes it it is like MCAS and angioedema are the same thing but they really really aren't. Angioedema is literally the medical word for hives!

>>422970Anyone else would have told Jaquie to put the camera away and enjoy the family time but instead Judd did some of the videoing! She was like a bratty child when she put her head down to nap at the table and he didn't say a word!
Last week was a pretty good shopping week for Jaquie–the mattress/bed, computer, sheets, hangers, squatty potty, tubie laundry bag, Vera Bradley wallet, etc. so this week will start with the new wheelchair dog leash, probably the redecorating of their bedroom (drapes, wall decor, new bedding), the hip and knee braces, etc. Unlimited funds apparently!
This week she will be most likely be back to the pain complaints to qualify for the Ketamine/Toradol injections ($500 minimum for the Ketamine alone), getting the Smart Drive wheelchair part, planning the surgery for the 2nd feeding tube, and trying to work in symptoms from her other chronic illnesses. Guessing there weill be lots of trips upstairs to drive the new bed up and down with the blah face because she is exhausted and in excrucicating pain (no pain sitting on the floor booting the new computer, tho). With Mary Frey in the hospital, she has to rev up her symptoms to overdramatize her own FD woes.
Angioedema attack but no visible symptoms? No hives, redness, swelling, throat issues—how bogus! My take on that is that she hadn't used that chronic illness in awhile and it finally moved to the top of her video checklist.
No. 423315
>>422965I have hEDS and POTS (from Jaquie's plethora of claimed illnesses) and can attest that the fatigue that comes with them can be debilitating.
Her lack of energy, however, probably comes from her purposely running low feeds and having a really boring life. When you have nothing to do in your life except focus on how sick you are (and how to monetise it) I can imagine the boredom would be tiring.
No. 423343
>>423339It is. Ironically, i spend a lot of time advocating for better access to appropriate mobility aids. With my own wheelchair, I can leave the house most days. Without it I could only manage it maybe once or twice a week and I was far more tired, depressed from being stuck inside all day. The thing is, Jaquie's wheelchair doesn't actually change anything for her. She's still not going to be going out on her own, or reasserting her independence. It'll only be used when Judd is there to film her using it. Now she's decided she can't drive, she's pretty much confined herself to the house in the daytimes.
Was she not looking into doing a communications class? I can't remember if this was an online course or in an actual college. I have no doubt that if she does start it, she'll have to drop out because she's "too sick" (she'll lose interest basically).

I don't really consider myself a psych fag, but I have had an interest in human behaviour and body language for many years now. Lately I've been specifically paying attention to Jaquie's body language when she's expressing legitimate frustration and/or anxiety, and when she's playing up her symptoms, specifically her pain and fatigue.
I've got a couple of screen caps to go along with this, but I'll start off with an example of what appears to be, in my opinion, a consistent gesture of real frustration and anxiety. In this clip she's actually talking about how she's nervous, in regards to her worsening allergies.
She will place her hand over her forehead, and often also run her hand through her hair.

(cont.) This is an example of what she often does when she's playing up her symptoms. She'll touch her fingers to the inside of the bridge of her nose, usually with one hand but sometimes both hands.
Interestingly, I've noticed she actually does this a lot when she's in one of her "sick face" episodes, when she's talking about how sick she is, and she gets distracted and excited about something else (like talking about new medical equipment or making a RLLY FUNNY joke) but then she remembers she's supposed to be "sick" and she'll do this gesture, maybe a pained sigh (like getting excited was painful) and she'll immediately revert to her droopy eyed, monotone sick face.
Sometimes she'll continue this gesture into her forehead holding and/or hair stroking gesture. But I've noticed that the touching of her fingers to the inside of the bridge of her nose only really happens when she's being dramatic and playing up symptoms.
This particular gesture is something that's pretty commonly considered a "tell" that someone's lying. I know someone who did this a lot when she was giving a statement to the police, and her laywer actually dropped her as a client because it was so obvious to everyone that she was lying (she was). Ever since then I've been paying attention to when people do this, and I've actually found it to be a pretty reliable tell. Jaq does do this a lot, and along with changes in her voice, her other mannerisms etc, we all know she's a terrible liar.

>>423209We're talking normal doors, right? Not heavy ones? At least I was.. The heavy doors I cannot open by myself anyway. I'm in a chair too, and I really don't see the problem. I have often trouble reaching the doorknob as I cannot lift my arms that far, but if/once I reach it, there's really nothing to it.
Closing the doors, now there's something that can really be tricky. But even those I can do from my manual chair - and remember, I cannot reach. So Jaq shouldn't have any problems. And if IS a problem: why
not stand up and open/close the door that way? That's exactly what I do when I use my powerchair (I can still walk two or three steps). Why wouldn't that make sense? I'd say it makes a hell of a lot more sense than using a public restroom with the door wide open..
>>423412This is interesting. There was a part in the video about the allergic reaction where I thought 'wow, she
actually seems genuinely worried here. I'm not sure which part that was, but still. I agree that's it's odd how she seems to snap back into certain behaviors/demeanor sometimes, as if she catches herself showing things she doesn't want to.
There has also been some mention lately of how big of a difference there is in her demeanor in old versus more recent videos. I think her gesturing is especially odd when her vlog is more rehearsed, e.g. when she is explaining something about one of her many conditions. I also think it was interesting to see her on that episode of 'the doctors' and during that panel discussion, where she was a little nervous and her gesturing is much more like you'd expect from someone who 'talks with their hands'. Overall she looks more normal when she is less rehearsed.

>>423476I thought that was very odd too, but when I read your comment I looked it up and I saw it said "logbook" and a timestamp. So I think her BG meter has a memory function so you can look up what it measured at a certain time.
>>422965I think she blames mainly her narcolepsy for that. Although that doesn't add up, because she said herself her narcolepsy has been very well controled for a few years now and she already had narcolepsy when she was training Harlow and other dogs at Disney up to three days a week. So it's probably her POTS, too. And of course, EDS, mitochondrial disease, and who knows what else.

>>423545Judd was just too happy from his visit with his family so Jaquie had to bring his attention back to her. The camera being magically present, focused and right on Jaquie for her BIG angioedema attack was suspicious–did she set up the camera first, Have it trained on her, then have the attack? How could Judd have set it up and focused the camera on her if he was driving? If her reaction was that bad that he had to pull over, would a priority be to get the camera set up? Her wrist didn't even look red. Or did she just shift into Sad Jaq mode with the sad face, squinted eyes, monotone voice, barely moving her lips and fake an attack? Who else would give a crap to look at the camera if there was a possibility of your throat constricting and not being able to breathe?
I swear she has a written checklist of her maladies that she looks at daily to see which one she is up on the rotation to vlog.

Jaquie was talking about everything that's going wrong (her mrsa, allergies, two toobz) with the camera neatly set up in front of her (on a tripod?) And she was being very rehearsed. Talking herself into a panic over it and getting upset, only it was totally, obviously staged.
She said something about how she's getting very overwhelmed. Then guess what? A fucking JUMP CUT to Harlow jumping up on the couch and sitting on her. She's all "what's this?" laughs "you're not supposed to jump up here?" looks at the camera "are you here to cheer me up?" The whole thing was so fucking fake.
Then it cuts to her making dinner, talking about how she got upset, but she watched a Disney movie, played with Harlow, talked to some friends, her mom came over for a bit… And then she proceeds to cook pasta with chicken, a shit load of heavy cream, like a cup of parmesan and half a bag of shredded mozzarella.

I don't know if Jaquie has ever mentioned this happening to Harlow, but I could just have missed where Harlow was cleared. Also I could be wrong but Harlow appears to be a bit bow-legged in the back, but I'm not an expert so sage.
Also I'll have to get some screenshots but the harness/vest that she uses to balance is not even meant to be used for heavy mobility work.

>>424725I'm pretty sure she has no anxiety, knows it's the emotion she should be feeling so she tries to act it, using stereotypical body language - but she shows so many signs of lying, it's beyond funny. How does she expect anyone to believe her?
- my theory is that she doesn't feel anxiety because she's in full control of her situation- she knows exactly what's going on, whiten, why it came to be, and what she wants to get out of it/ how long she has to keep it up and how severe she has to make it to get her next 'present' or toy from a doctor.
On the other hand, she probably does have mental illness/es that she's keeping secret, which probably do come with anxiety. But does she feel anxious about her health? Probably not- so she has to act it
No. 424826
It's pretty obvious that she is calculating on how to get a hospital admission out of all this, setting the scenario with all of her disorders flaring–allergic reactions, can't eat (did she forget about the cheesy chicken slop?), joint pain (unscrewing the cap of her erythromycin bottle),etc. She is so desperate for a "Team" with all of her "we think", "we are trying" talk–like she has a team coordinating all of her supposed illnesses. CF patients like Mary Frey have a coordinated team including specialty doctors, respiratory therapists, social workers, dieticians, etc. and Jaquie would just LOVE to have her own team. All she has is the docs who she has shopped around for that will give her anything she asks for just for her good insurance reimbursement–no primary physician coordinating her care.
She is most likely a colonized MRSA carrier–someone who has asymptomatic symptoms but can activate the MRSA with invasive procedures (like the coveted 2nd tube that is on her Wish List or the special-Jaquie-high-risk-toenail surgery) or from already having invasive lines and tubes (port, GJ tube). She should be wearing gloves with ANY contact with those lines or with body fluids. She never wears gloves, not even handling the raw meat for the dog.
Again, she made sure the camera was on her during her allergic reaction, because that is the priority when your throat is closing. Holding out the camera on the selfie stick to film it. Pure shittery!

I suppose some doctors hand out email addresses to select patients, but I think about 99% of them will not give out phone numbers or email addresses.
Fair enough that someone like Mary can call or email her doctors and health providers, because she has CF and can't wait around in clinics to see a doctor.
Jaquie has said she emails her "pots doctor" and tells him absolutely everything that's going on with her- and she does the same in appointments because she "wants him to know EVERYTHING that goes on with me." So I wouldn't be surprised if she's emailing him 5 page essays of what's going on with her.

>>424938>>424937I posted the question about asking questions.
We have our doctor's email address and his cell phone number. My husband uses email from time to time. [The doc and my husband are the same age, weekend warriors, and they bond over their pains from old and new injuries. Neither is growing old gracefully, lol.]
I just remembered this….I'm sure Mary Frey has a legitimate team because that's the way Boston Children's Hospital works. Mary is seen there monthly. We travel very far for my kid to be seen there once a year. A team of 4-5 specialists crowd into the room, each doc asks their own questions, they go huddle in the hallway, and then the main doc and case manager return with the plan. I do not get to ask any of the other docs any follow-up questions. It's all very diagnostic and sucky. My point of contact is the case manager, NOT the team, ever, so that's who Mary is probably emailing as well, I would think, but calls it her "team."
But this is how I picture most practices working, unlike the family practice. So maybe Jaquie has found a lot of one-doc offices that practice cowboy medicine?
Sage for going on and on.

>>424938This is how I use our doctor's office. To me this is normal. Jaquie seems to call for e.v.e.r.y.t.h.i.n.g.
The hurricane calls were the ones that got to me, though. Her GI's office is out of power and she calls and calls and calls until finally the on-call line is up and running. She reports pain near her feeding tube site.
OF COURSE the doc tells her to go to the ER because he's sorry he put the damn tube in because (obviously, now we know he didn't even really know where it should have been placed) and because he definitely doesn't know anything about buh-un tubes because his entire hospital didn't have any and all the nurses were oohing over it, plus he nor the nurses knew to check the level of water in it (despite the instructions in the patient booklet and websites everywhere). He wants to say he deeply regrets putting in the tube at all and wishes he had listened to the colleague that begged him to send her to a different GI, after he told the whole story to his colleague and friend between holes 9 and 14 because it took that long.
But now, terrified of committing malpractice, he tells her to go to the ER because their office has no power and if he tells her to suck it up and go to bed and she legitimately has a tube poking a major organ because of her unique anatomy, he then could get sued for malpractice.
Perhaps, to him, this is a nightmare.

begging for a double high enema.
I really don't understand why she's making such a big deal of this test. "No one has ever done it"?? I'm sorry? It's done
literally every day in hospitals all over the world, you nitwit. Plus, that test is not even the least bit painful, it's hardly even uncomfortable. Literally the
only reason someone would possibly be apprehensive about it, is that it has to do with your anus. So naturally, she shares it on YT.
Yeah, BIG suprise, if you have obstipation tests have to do with your bowels and your anus. What did she think, they would find out how her rectum works by having her dance the mamba in a Spanish air force uniform?
And you know.. I don't even think that these kind of things should
never be discussed online. I've seen videos of people with ostomies showing how they change their wafer and bag, instructional videos of people who irrigate their colon or vlogs of people with SCI who use microlax daily as part of their bowel management, all done in a tasteful and normal way. Some light joking about it is also fine by me. Nothing wrong with that. But Janiece and Paul: this is just NOT the way you do it. Just, no. NO. It's just not.

>>425457Reminds me of this girl who was kind of new in our group of friends. She was recently in hospital, having tests for severe obstipation. Was scheduled for a colonic marker study and a camera pill and even was briefly admitted when she couldn't go to the bathroom for too long (don't remember how long - doesn't matter). Anyway, she was just out of the hospital and one of the other girls was to be celebrating her birthday. The new girl called her to ask what she would serve for dinner, because she didn't like almost any kind of vegetable, fruits, nuts, legumes, if there was rice it had to be white, pasta couldn't be whole grain, basically no whole grain options of any food available, even bread could only be plain and white, and the list went on.
When my friend told me about that, we looked at each other and wondered
why she would be scheduled for expensive tests?
With Janiece, I don't know if she lies about what she eats. I wouldn't be suprised if the doctor didn't even ask her about it. Or Janiece somehow thinks she is eating "kind of healthy" and insists that her diet cannot be the cause of her problems. If you remember, she told us in one video that Paul
could not eat any vegetables because of his Crohns. Assuming they mostly eat together, that would mean she doesn't eat veggies, either. I'm not sure what she
does eat, but what she is showing us aren't exactly um.. the most wholesome kinds of food. But if even Jaquie wasn't sent to a dietitian before they poked a hole in her belly, why should Janiece see one? Clearly her obstipation is not so severe that she is having difficulty eating. She says she hasn't gone to the bathroom in so long that it's getting uncomfortable, but has no trouble eating ice cream to calm her nerves. I don't know, but most people find it quite difficult to eat
at all when they get to the point where they are literally so full of shit that it's starting to hurt. Not Janiece though.

You usually don't get called back you would only phone to ask for an appointment/ to rearrange an appointment. You usually just get posted a new appointment. Appointments are just when the doctor can see you they don't take into account work/ childcare etc.

>>425540A psychiatrist came by during I think one of her hospital stays for anaphylaxis. Jaquie just said that they concluded that she was anxious during the reactions because she couldn't breathe, but "of course that is normal" so that was the end of it. She doesn't seem to understand that even if it is understandable to have anxiety or depression or whatever due to your medical illness, that doesn't mean that it doesn't influence your quality of life and also doesn't mean you couldn't benefit from treatment. It's like her over-use of "but that is OK" whenever she is frustrated or afraid or whatever. She needs to tell us that it is OK, because she doesn't want people thinking that her emotional state could have anything to do with her physical symptoms.
I have to say that I am not sure what to think of her allergic reactions. I still think they could be real, or some of them could have been real in the past. I find it hard to believe that she would have been able to fool a whole floor or nurses and doctors on three seperate hospital admissions to think she had anaphylaxis if she didn't have swelling and didn't have her throat closing. And somehow I doubt that she would go as far as self-inducing an allergic reaction that could kill her. I can believe that she massively exagerates it, but I still think it is a possibility that at least some if it is real. That might explain why she is so freaked out about it and why she treats every minor itch immediately with IV benadryl.

And to be honest, I kind of doubt the merits of pointing out every day that what she ate wasn't the best choice for GP. It's kind of old news.
I do however find her obsession with food and with cooking interesting. It is often seen in ED patients who don't eat themselves, but who love to cook for the whole family. I mean, she says she loves to cook, but she's definitely not very creative with it. So I see her love of cooking kind of in that context.

No doubt that Jaq will be spending Thanksgiving in the hospital, though, because she's famous for her allergy performances and Red Man wouldn't be dramatic enough so undoubtedly she will have her version of anaphlaxis from the 2 antibiotics.

So, thoughts on today's vlog.
1) The poor CNA has to film medical tests now. I'd love a medfags opinion on how this test went (if possible from visual observation only)
2) Suddenly, she's apparently been having fevers from her toe infection (note that she hasn't complained about a recurrent 101-102 fever which is odd, not until after the CNA tells her that MRSA can cause them!). This fits her usual pattern of developing symptoms after* being told she either has or may have a condition.
Any other thoughts?
No. 426626
Jaquie is setting the scene of her dramatic health crisis that will require a hospitalization. Tired, aches & pains, new numbness and tingling, and now a fever. Symptoms mysteriously appeared AFTER the toe culture resulted. Meanwhile, Mary is in the hospital, and having side effects (not anaphlaxis) from her Vancomycin and other antibiotic but she "feels safe". Predicting that Jaq will soon feel UNSAFE and have to be admitted. Buckle up for the ventriliquist talk (lips barely moving), the sad eyes, and the strained voice and gasping over her own antibiotic anaphylactic reaction (because Jaq never just has side effects). She probably already packed her hospital bag with her toddler outfits, and her "toolkit" crap. But don't worry, she will still be able to film all her bullshit drama.

I knew she was gonna have an allergic reaction to the "oral" antibiotic. after the reaction on the highway I had a feeling this was gonna come back. it's so obvious she just itches an area over and over, claiming it's itchy from an allergic reaction, but really she's just creating the red spots!!!! I can ALWAYS tell when she's using a fake voice to act like her throat is closing or itchy, it's the same fake voice she uses when she says she's exhausted or in tErRiBLe pAiN…
also I don't know if anyone else talked about this but I also mentioned how I believe she is purposefully not eating as much as she could, in order to lose all function of her stomach and become sicker. I'm fucking positive.
isn't it also amazing how she somehow got on day feeds so quickly, when not too long ago she could barely tolerate a 10mL/hour flow???? lmfao. and right after talking about getting 2 tubes, HER TUBE ROTATED ALMOST ALL THE WAY AROUND AT NIGHT KEK!!!! God she is so bad at this.
I totally agree that she's gonna end up in the hospital VERY shortly.
>>425540obviously Jaquie doesn't think she has mental health issues, for two main reasons. one being that she is actually extremely happy with her situation, loves the attention and care, loves all the cool "toys", the money she gets, the followers, I mean the list goes on. she fucking loves it. yeah she gets bored easily with her "diseases" but she just combats that by scheming up new toys to get or worsening/new symptoms. two is she doesn't want anyone uncovering her narcissistic sociopathic personality and factious disorder. plus if she had any long period of time with a mental health professional they would notice she's not autistic, at all.

>>426811O, wow, now I get her reaction. When she got the stuff out of the bag and was suprised and she said "o… they come like this" and she held on a syringe I was thinking 'yeah.. what's special about that? You get your saline flushes, your heparine etc. in a pre-filled syringe, why would you be suprised these would be the same??'
But yeah.. OK, I get it now.
And I agree with other anons that you could see the allergic reaction to her oral antibiotics coming from far away. That was SO friggin' obvious. I have to say I still don't get what it going on. She has a very localized infection; is it normal to get IV antibiotics for that? Of course she got oral abx first, but aren't there other abx that could be taken orally, and wouldn't they be a more logical choice?
>>426828Good catch, didn't even think of that. But I never understood how she can be tossing and turning
violently with her supposed EDS. If you dislocate or even just hurt your joints in your sleep, your body tends to learn not to turn as much. She even said when she had 'feeding tube pain' because she slept on it wrong that after a while she didn't sleep on it anymore, so that couldn't be the cause of her pain. So she can learn not to sleep in certain positions when it causes her pain, but not when it wakes her up?
O, and regarding the new bed: have all of you caught how she didn't have any reflux issues from her feeds now that she is putting the headrest up? So she is sleeping in a position that is NOT recommended for reflux because it can make it worse (there's pressure on the stomach when you are in that position, that's why they recommend you lie in a reverse trendelenberg, which means the bed is still flat but the head end is higher) and now she is not having a problem that she can't have(1) because the feeds go straight in her intestines. Sure Jaq, sure.
1) obviously she can still have reflux issues, but she says she gets them from her feeds and this is one of the reasons why she wants to do day-only feeds.
Of course, everyone is different and preferences can vary widely, but isn't it curious how only munchies prefer day-only feeds over night feeds?

I tried to find how many she got, but since she never said anything about ordering more or drinking them, I think it's safe to say she only got the ten when her tube wasn't working. That to me makes it very clear that she did indeed starve herself when her tube wasn't working. So much for her "I'll have to make every bite count now, so I'm only going to drink the shakes." I

Just watch it from about the 6.20 mark. She says: "it's not that I don't
want to eat, that's not it at all" - while looking away from the camera. Then "I am a human being I love the taste of food" - watching at the camera, then "I just physically, cannot" - looking away again. Then she goes on how her stomach is 'partially paralyzed' and tells about her symptoms, during which she mostly looks at the camera. I think it mostly shows how that part is rehearsed more.

So I googled 'red man syndrome'. See:
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC270616/Basically, the advice is to pre-dose with an antihistamine and to do the next infusion slower. Also, the risk is already reduced with a second or next dose. So it's a bit curious that her doctor would advice to stop treatment immediately. It could be they are just overly cautious because she is known for having more severe allergic reactions, but stil.. I did get the impression that it was mainly Jaq saying she was worried, as she said "it's a common reaction, but I just couldn't take it anymore".
But yeah, chances are she'll end up in hospital. Even though I believe this reaction to be real, the whole situation was just very predictable.

(medfag) RMS is a common side effect to Vancomycin and usually symptoms are greatest on the first dose. As I mentioned in an earlier comment, it is treated with Benadryl, given slower (up to 3-4 hours), and often give saline before and after to dilute the Vancomycin in the bloodstream. If the person is symptomatic (redness clears faster than the itching usually), it can still be "administered", just following the above guidelines. It is more of a side effect than an allergic reaction. In the hospital setting, we sometimes see the redness last for a day or two, so Jaq's cleared extremely fast with the standard treatment. She wasn't faking it this time, but Vanco is the recommended treatment for MRSA and is not as effective taken orally for ANYONE, not just "GP Warriors"! If she truly has mast cell activation, she probably shouldn't be taking it unsupervised because the symptoms really could escalate but she could certainly go to an infusion center rather than a hospital. Still predicting she will get her "team" to admit her, because Mary is outdoing her right now. She will probably amp up the anaphylaxis threat and have them do a in-patient Vanco challenge, just like Mary had, checking blood pressure, pulse, etc while getting increasing doses of Vanco. I'm betting she will be using the "feeling unsafe" at home line, because Mary mentioned feeling safe in the hospital. The whole deal is that she has consistently overdramatized so many symptoms or so many illnesses that her credibility factor is zip.
It's a sad day though when a nurse jumps on the Jaquie bus and films her–in a hospital or clinical setting, that would be a HIPPA violation (referring to the patient privacy—not to her dog) and is very unprofessional of her.

>>427408Well I'm no medfag but I picked up on that too, that's weird. You wouldn't normally say that I wouldn't think. It's an accurate description of bacteria growth in lungs because they're basically perfect bacteria growing caves in someone with CF.
Jaquie got some bacteria in her ingrown toenail. It's no bacteria farm, not anything like a CF patients lungs anyway.
You would say "the type of bacterial infection" not "the bacteria I am growing"

>>427408This seems so overblown. I've had infected ingrown toenails before and had them sorted by the podiatrist, they cleared the gunk out and sprayed it with iodine.
it's probably different because she's managed to get MRSA in her toe. Which TBH is her own fault for being in hospitals so much, it's very hard to pick it up anywhere else!

Once again Jaquie does the dog raw food prep without gloves (even Janiece wears gloves). For someone with a supposed compromised immune system, why would she expose herself to bacteria from raw meat?
In her glee over IV antibiotics, she certainly had enough energy to unload the big box of antibiotic supplies. The nurse had gloves on for the antibiotic administration, but of course Jaquie didn't wear gloves—yet she brags about she is "very meticulous about sterile protocol". Her Red Man Syndrome was not a severe reaction—many patients have mostly face, neck and trunk redness (not usually legs) that can linger and fades over a day or 2. Hers resolved quickly.
It was extremely odd that the on-call pharmacist for the infusion company would call another doctor and not the prescribing doctor to report Jaq's Vanco side effects. She had to have given the pharmacist the other doctor's number because the pharmacy would only have the prescribing physician's name on the prescription. That would be like your CVS or Walgreen's pharmacist calling your gynecologist for a question about a prescription written by your internist. Makes absolutely no sense at all. Suspicious and possible lie–I wonder if it the number she gave was the family doctor that she manipulates for many treatments and referrals.
Jaquie then says how RMS is a common reaction—like she is a licensed professional with tons of experience.
FYI–MRSA is a superbug that is a staph infection that is resistant to common antibiotic treatment. It is not uncommon for us all to have staph on our skin and in our noses and not be symptomatic. Any open lesion (in this case her toe) can be infected with staph just from wearing sandals in public places–not just in hospitals. If the staph is resistant, it can spread to the bone and damage them. Infected people need to be hypervigilant in hand washing, in washing washcloths and towels in bleach and hot water, not sharing towels, disinfecting tubs and showers daily, and disinfecting shoes, sandals and slippers daily. Finally, bacteria breeds in dark, moist places, so airing out feet and not letting them brew in a warm slipper or shoe is a good precaution measure.
Sorry for medfagging—

>>427759Janiece desperately needs to learn to edit. That vlog is way longer than it needs to be. She says she failed several parts of the test. She couldn't pass the balloon they put inside her. She genuinely seemed a bit upset at the end when she was recapping because she didn't expect to do so badly. She debates whether to tell her mom she went for the test at all because her mom says her stuff like she (Janiece) can't poop because she's lazy and if she put her mind to it she'd poop fine, she just needs 30 days to break the non-pooping habit. She also mentions she's had constipation issues since she was a kid and her mom never took it seriously then either.
idk Janiece is on her way to becoming as munchie as Jaquie but her mom sounds crazy on the other end of the spectrum. It's like she doesn't believe in doctors at all and thinks everything can be cured with prayer and positive thinking…
No. 427791
>>427770Well, if you ask me
something isn't right. I do agree with the other anon that her mom is kind of crazy (she mentioned before that when she grew up, being sick basically meant you didn't pray hard enough) and I think that might even be the cause of her munchie-ness. But she is SO incredible OTT with everything.
First of all: I had that test, and there's nothing to it. It's not painful, not even uncomfortable, it can however be a bit awkward because there's something up your butt. I'm not easily phased by anything medical, but I can imagine that someone would be. But calling it "the worst medical test of my life"?? Come on, I can think of ten tests that are much worse. And she is being creepy about it, I agree. I mean: yes, if you are constipated a lot then having an enema makes you feel better. But thinking it is 'nice' and even going on and on about that
on video?? No, that is too much even for me.
Second of all, she sees every health problem as a "chronic illness thing". She already said things like "that's chronic illness for you" when her stomach problems just started. I think it is odd when you call a problem you've only had for two weeks "chronic" before you know what's up. Even now, when the doctor told her this would be an easy fix and PT would cure her, she still says at the end of the vid "this is another chronic illness journey" (something like that). No. It's not. If she actually has rectal dysfunction, that is not an illness but a functional problem and it's not even a chronic problem. Also, she wants to await the results and then shove them into her moms face. Her mom basically says that it is her habit not to go to the bathroom every day, and she just needs to go and concentrate. With the testing, she could prove to her mom that it isn't her fault, it is that "my muscles just don't work". But.. that is not what rectal dysfunction is. It is not that the muscles don't work, but that you are not using them correctly. In a way, her mom is right when it comes to this particular problem: it is like a bad habit of the muscles. Not that it is her
fault or that she would be able to think herself better, but what the PT will do is help her to train her to use her muscles correctly and to learn new habits. Treatment is retraining of the pelvic floor and behavioral modifications, sometimes together with a mild laxative. But Janiece thinks the test will prove her mother wrong. She also said a few times that she thinks the tests will prove she has rectal dysfunction, and that 'maybe they will find another problem as well'. I find that odd. Add to that the fact that she is already talking about this problem as part of a "chronic illness" and we should wonder where she is going with all of this. Her attitude to it is not normal, if you ask me. It could be that her mother is partly to blame for that, and the fact that her best and - as far as we can see - only friend is also a huge munchie certainly doesn't help. But Janiece is a grown up, and she can't blame everything on others. She needs to grow up and go live her life.

Sorry I can't make screencaps right now, but was scrolling through the comment section on Jaq's latest vlog. People suggest she might just need the vanco on a slower rate as this mostly prevents RMS, but Jaq says "as of now I'm not gonna take it again" and elsewhere she says she would be
less nervous for surgery then for another abx, because she hates the reactions. Just.. what?? Does she
know what kind of meds you get during surgery? That's

Not to mention, maintaining hair that long is hard work for anyone, let alone someone with as many illnesses as she claims. It's a wonder she hasn't hired a personal hair-washer.

>>427981>>427987Since Mary posted some sort of collab picture (giving each other high-fives from afar) with Jaquie in it a few weeks ago it has probably led to more people noticing the odd similarities despite different diagnoses (although I am fairly certain that Jaquie's videos come up as recommended if you watch Mary's - because similarities). Anyone who is paying attention to both will see how Jaquie is so similar that everything Mary experiences Jacquie does a week later (I would love to see Jaquie try to get herself a vest).
I'm not sure if Mary is just too naive or caught up in her own world to see that Jaquie is pretty much directly copying what she does (while she has a definite life threatening diagnosis - she has her own set of issues and I think that the chronic illness vlogging "fame" has caused her to be even more OTT and not necessarily taking great care of herself). She probably considers themselves friends (when really Jaquie just wants to outsick Mary).

She has a used one she bought in Scotland when she realized she couldn't do all the hills that were there. She uses it occasionally, but it's not a big focus for her.
Also, I believe Mary tried KF formula at first, but it didn't work for her. She actually wanted to mash up food and put in her tube, but was upset that wouldn't work, so she tried KF, which didn't work with her enzymes, so now she uses whatever she got at the hospital.

>>428113Mary would have not any reason to talk to Jaquie.

She has an actual team of CF docs, Infectious Disease doc, Respiratory Therapists, Case Manager, Nurses, phlebotomist, etc. Her team evaluates her daily to see if he bloodwork and symptoms allow her to continue with her intravenous antibiotics. Even with her side effects, they decide if the benefit outweighs the risk.
The MRSA Jaquie has in her toe is skin staph and since she rarely walks her toe is not in big danger (doesn't interfere with any major bodily organ or function).

>>428374Mary Frey is truly ill with CF and its complications but she is by no means a 100% on the up and up in her vlogs. She definitely has an undisclosed/untreated ED and treats her husband quite poorly. (Another thing her and Jaquie share is a tendency to have a health crisis whenever their husbands' families come to visit to keep the attention on themselves.) She's not going to be calling out Jaquie for being a bad role model when some of that criticism could come back on her and expose her own issues.
I would imagine she's reaching out to Jaquie and other 'chronic illness warriors' because she's a savvy youtuber. Colabs and networking means more views and more merch sales for both of them. I don't think it's any deeper than that. She's just getting her hustle on.
No. 428428
>>428400Probably. And I agree Mary has some issues, but at the same time I don't think you can really compare her to Jaquie.
I find it funny that on the one hand we see munchies seeking out munchies (just look at who is following known munchies and you'll find more of them) yet at the same time a lot of munchies go out of their ways to point out "fakers", e.g. "fake service dogs" and vlogs/blogs about "illness fakers". We even see it here in the general munchies threads as well as this one.
No. 428439
>>428400i dont quite agree about the ED. CFers actually need more caloric intake and due to her coughing fits she is prone to throwing up. if you throw up so repeatedly makes the stomach valve weak and food getting pushed out of the stomach is even more probable.
anything else is OTT though. i like reading the gossip guru thread on her. she can do yoga and doesnt need oxygen but still lies around all day long like the lazy shit she is. others with CF that is more severe go to work. and also her relationship with peter is absurdly symbiotic
>we we we personally i think she doesnt really watch other chronically ill vlogs. i remember commenting once something on of her videos. her only response was: "Do you also have CF?". After I replied with 'no' there was no reaction. She likes to have contact with other chronically ill people. she also has conctact with aspen (diabetes type I) from the daly tribe, but doesnt watch their vlogs. or she like the OTT justification of munchies.

>>428543Yup, that's what I said a while ago. I can imagine that doing it for old vlogs is a lot of work, so if she would hire someone to do that - or better yet: ask her fans to help with it - I could understand that. But her vlog is only 10-15 minutes long, she uses a LOT of rehearsed stuff explanations she has used before, so if she did it herself it would be faster. It's not like she has a job or goes to school, right? Vlogging is basically her job, she just doesn't want to actually work at it. If she really wanted to invest in something, she could get herself a speach recognition software pack. That way, she only has to correct that mistakes of the software and can save herself some time. But no, she has to hire some expensive company. And like another anon said: she can buy all kinds of shit lately while before they had to 'work it into the budget' first. But she can't pay for the captions anymore? Yeah right. Well, good luck with your hospital bed and home improvements, Jaquie.

>>428753Yeh with her infusion, and feed (I don't know if she has a 500ml or a 1000ml bag) plus the weight of the backpack it is probably 2.5-3kg which is 5-6.6lbs.
In a backpack it isn't really a lot but equally it isn't nothing. It is recommended that children don't carry more than 10-20% of their body weight in a backpack. Whilst Jacqui isn't a child she is theoretically disabled therefore she is hitting somewhere between 10 and 20% when she has her feed and saline running.

Perhaps she doesn't really wear it that much and it's usually just on the couch by her? We know her YT biz takes a lot of time, but that would also seem to exacerbate her neck pain, too.

I'm the anon who (yesterday I think) brought up Jaq not using the pledges towards her CC like she said she would. I agree she's probably just talking about it because Mary and Peter are getting professional captions now. But also, they're paying out of pocket. Meanwhile Jaq isn't following through with what she promised. She probably feels out-done, and I imagine she wouldn't want to draw attention to it because she doesn't wanna get caught out. She's usually very censored. She never brings anything up that might show her in a negative light unless she feels people are catching on already. So who knows, maybe she did see my comment here.
But what really pisses me off is how J and J were SO mean to that woman who asked about the patreon pledges not going towards CC, Jaqs subscribers were being nasty too and Jaq wasn't stopping them. And she was just asking because she herself needs the CC. She's exactly the kind of person Jaquie "kindly" wants to help. Yet none of the videos have been properly captioned (I know this because I use CC most of the time myself) despite Jaq accepting pledges for it, and showing us every day something new she's bought. New laptop, new bed, new decor, new medical shit she doesn't even need. But you guys, there's NOT ENOUFH MONEY FOR CC. And when someone just simply asks why there's still no CC, she gets ripped apart. This is sooo fishy. If Jaquie really was as genuine as she tries to come off, she wouldn't have responded so passive aggressively, deffensively, or mean. She would've been apologetic becuase someone who actually needs CC wasn't getting something Jaquie had promised months ago.

And yeah, EcoFluffyMama (welcome here, another cloth user, I presume?) is 100% right. She said her main goal of her Patreon account was to get CC, yet she didn't. The only reason she adressed it was probably because Peter and Mary talked about it and EFM asked about it a couple of days ago. As someone else in the comments said: if she would rather use that money for her internet shopping she should do so, but she has to be
honest about it. If she simply would have opened a Patreon account just to supplement Judds income, people wouldn't comment on it. It would still be trashy, but at least she would be honest. If you say you are going to use it for CC, that has to be your first priority.

O, a quick question I had regarding her infusions. Someone mentioned the weight of it all (funny how she doesn't seem bothered by that, eh? She even wants to carry stuff around by day instead of just doing night feeds like everyone else) and that reminded me of something. When I first came across her vlogs I wondered why she didn't do her infusions at night, but then I thought that maybe that made sense as she would have to go to the bathroom more often so she would have to get up a lot. But when someone in the comments asked her if she had to pee a lot with her infusions running, she says no, because 'her body needs it'.
Now, I am not medically trained, but normally whatever goes in has to come out. If you're in hospital hooked up to fluids and you don't pee more as the drip increases, doctors start to worry for your kidneys. I don't know a thing about IV fluids for dysautonomia though and she claims her doctor says she is 'probably' hypovolemic because of her reaction to the infusions (never mind that the more invasive a treatment is, the bigger the placebo response and that your patient could have been dehydrating themselves, just stick in a port after two infusions if they say it works, right?)
Does anyone know if her claim makes any sense? Would she pee less if she actually was hypovolemic (wether she is or not - she could've looked it up and claim it for that reason, of course)? Or is this just another sign that she is dehydrating herself? I think this was before the feeding tube even, so she still claimed to be drinking 2,5 or 3L of water every day. It just was 'never enough for my body', dixit Jaquie.
No. 429175
>>429143Indeed I am a cloth user :)
That was my point that no one seemed to get. She started her Patreon for the sole purpose to caption. The idea I believe was leftover money would help supplement their income. But she makes money through merch and adsense. So there's no reason to use the Patreon money for anything else beside the captions. It drived me bananas she's deleted comments in agreement with me, which makes me look the only only with an issue.
Forgive me for a bit of personal blogging but it's relevant to her GP. She's had no treatment beside tubes. I've had to go through things like botox and I'm facing my stomach being removed due to my GP. I still have my NJ, I've been on a liquids only diet for 2 years but now can't tolerate that..so how, HOW is her GP serious?! This doesn't add up. Bit like her Patreon.

>>429153I know this is a controversial thing here but I would appreciate it if I don’t get attacked cause I’m just trying to answer questions. I’ve been getting IV fluids regularly for about a year now for dysautonomia (and no… it took 7 months before they even came close to considering a central line - a port after two infusions WTF???) and I do think Jaquie’s not peeing claim is weird.
I do know some POTS patients infuse at night but the majority say that increases swelling. I’ve never infused at night but I could see swelling being a bit of problem from your ANS maybe causing third spacing - especially with MCAS which also causes third spacing. I’ve always run fluids during the day because, quite frankly, they don’t last for long. One bag run slow (which benefits more than fast) gives me good symptom relief for about 12 hours then my Urine goes dark and I stop peeing and start fainting again.
That being said I was majorly dehydrated wen I started my infusions - e.g. vomiting everything I drank dehydrated. But even with no other source of hydration my infusions STILL make me pee. I do have days were I pee more than others, supposedly when I’m already more hydrated, but I’ve never had a day where the infusions don’t make me pee at all. I feel like that claim is highly suspicious because even with no oral intake she should be getting fairly sufficient hydration from her feeds and her fluids enough to have the urge to pee a lot during them.
Just cause you’re not pee doesn’t mean you “need them” more than someone who does pee. It kind of seems to me that by claiming she doesn’t pee is her very uneducated way of trying to make it seem like she’s so severe and needs them so badly, but TBH she’s be better off developing a kidney problem to explain her concerning lack of output.

>>429153It's BS again- her explanation doesn't add up plus there's no way of knowing if she's actually hypovolemic without a radioactive test which they don't do any more. She probably just pees an average amount since she doesn't drink enough water.
No. 429206
Just in case anyone wants more input from a (real) POTS patient…
I am very prone to low blood volume, low blood pressure, and other symptoms of hypovolemia. My doctor refuses to even discuss the idea of saline infusions, so I do the damn work and I commit to drinking water constantly throughout the day and upping salt/electrolytes. I pee every hour at least, sometimes more. If I slack just a little on hydration, that rate drops dramatically and I can easily go 5-6 hours without peeing.
Also, much like Jaquie my stomach has a hard time accepting medium-large volumes of water so I use my fucking brain and I take it slow. But it works. And my stomach can't handle half the shit she eats.
If jaquie isn't peeing often, she's not trying hard enough. Simple as that. If she really committed to it it'd be possible. If she can tolerate ice cream, chocolate milk, fried food, rich cream sauces, pasta, overcooked chicken etc… She can drink the fucking water. Her infusions are just another toy- oops, I mean "tool".(USER HAS BEEN PUT OUT TO PASTURE)

I gotta say Judd was a good sport about the whole thing even thought he clearly just wanted to stay home and play video games. Psst Jaquie, since you read here, if you really want to show Judd how much you appreciate him: spend some of your endless TV time watching the Star Wars movies and learn a thing or two about something your husband clearly loves.

I have health issues and I don't tell my friends/ family every time I go to hospital etc or every symptom.

Obviously she’s purging sometimes (moon face), but she doesn’t look like she’s actively throwing up. Also, if you’re someone with GP who does throw up often, you drain out the bile, and you certainly don’t eat the shit jaquie does. Once the bile’s gone, vomiting usually stops, unless you’re a total moron and eat. If your stomach is empty, you won’t have vomiting. Of course we all know that jaquie is full of shit, so that doesn’t even apply to her. She’ll say anything to get those asspats.

>>430251Depends on your position. I has been known to happen to EDSers.
But I don't believe for one minute that her hip subluxed. Or ever did. But it was odd that it was Judd who mentioned it in todays vlog. So maybe it is her version of "I've got a headache today, sorry babe". Because she basically says she has headaches (almost) every day, so she has to think of something more special if she isn't in the mood. Though somehow I wonder if she is ever in the mood. I don't know, for some reason I don't see her as someone who would really enjoy having sex. Sex is a not all about her, so that'd be a problem.

Obviously J has to have it too because that's just so cool!!
Funny thing, tho – Christina can't get Zofran anymore because "they only give that to cancer patients" (paraphrasing her there). Well, cancer patients and munchies, apparently. Also, even though Christina is practically bed-bound a lot of the time, she goes to physio several times per week and hangs out with friends and has hobbies (jewellery making, painting and crotchet). And she's never OTT – in fact, she only mentions her pain in passing, except when it's so bad she's nearly crying. And she
does advocate for getting better and has relevant informational videos that aren't just All About MY So-and-So. Also, she got her port after Jaquie got hers, because she had a PICC line for the longest time to try out the infusion therapy. Like you're supposed to. Ugh.

>>430181If Judd loves Star Wars and video games, why didn't she have him pick out new games and veg out at home? He works all day or all night, then buys the groceries, does the laundry, drives her ass everywhere and listens to her go on endlessly about her ailments. Instead, she has him cart her to the aquarium so she can show off her handicapped equipment at the aquarium. When Judd stopped to watch the giant octopus–his favorite display–he said, "yeah, Jaquie already rolled away". Then there was the public display of her port and feeding tube line hanging out of her dress at the restaurant, while she sat and watched him eat. At least he got to eat some beef and not her shitty chicken!
Of course she couldn't let it be a real day about and for Judd–she had to work in her "relentless vomiting from her horrible nausea", how she was "struggling", "testing her limits", maxing out on Zofran, and of course, mentioning her "texture issues", like she was some kind of hero for her sacrifies for Judd Day. Meanwhile cancer patients are puking and insurance won't cover Zofran, paraplegics or quadraplegics can't qualify for Smart Drive wheelchairs, but it is Jaquie who is the example and advocate for chronically ill. And her Patrons can't fawn over her or give her enough money to encourage this shit. Finally, a hip subluxation? Really? And you can lay in bed with the monotone, sad, poor me face—she would be howling at the moon in pain if it had really subluxed–the after pains are almost as bad as a subluxation. Judd believing her shit makes him one tick above a rock mentally.

It’s not good for pots patients, and jaquie’s also claiming nerve damage, so shouldn’t her toe be less sensitive? Plus, eds patients usually have high pain tolerances, while she’s treating a toenail like she’s broken her leg. And yes, lidocaine can be less effective in eds patients, but you just use a larger dose more frequently, which is much safer than being knocked out, even if it’s light anesthesia or sedation. But jaquie’s got to justify spending $15,000 on her wheelchair somehow!

>>430918>>Anon, who posted all those screen caps of her port bullshit do you see anything on her Instagram you can dox her on regarding this?You rang, m'lord?
She
has mentioned it before. Long ago, I'll have to look it up though to be sure. It was I think shortly after they moved to Tampa bay, so that's about a year ago? She said she was to see a neurologist (I think?) to look into "possible small fibre neuropathy" because of the leg pains she has had since she was a child. However, as far as I'm aware, she never mentioned if she was tested and what the outcome was. She pretty much dropped the leg pain as well. During the time she was still looking for a POTS diagnosis and angling for IV fluids she posted once about Judd having to drive her to the ER because her leg pain was so bad. She has barely mentioned it, since.
Her pain symptoms seem to have changed from "leg pains" to "hip pain and subluxations and other joint pain." Her (possible) nerve symptoms seem to have changed from "leg pain" to "pins and needles in both arms and legs". Which, for the record, is so common in HEDS that most patients are never tested for any nerve disorder/damage unless they develop severe weakness along with it.
And as another anon said, she also mentioned nerve studies. One of her very recent vlogs features a nerve conduction study and she talks about having it had before.
I don't know what to think of it, to be honest. I find it odd that a rheumatologist would refer her for nerve conduction studies - maybe it's different in the US, but in most countries such tests would almost exclusively be asked for by neurologists (maybe with some specific exceptions, like tests for CTS might also be done for hand surgeons and orthopedic surgeons). I wonder if a rheumatologist would be able to interpret the results correctly. It's a very sensitive tests and results can be off if the patient even has cold hands or feet or if they are sitting in the wrong position. Normally the technician who does the testing would know how to carry it out obviously. But since Jaquie always seems to find doctors and other professionals doing things they wouldn't normally do, I tend to take pretty every suggestion of her 'team' with a pretty large grain of salt.
Apparently, she also has some problems in her lower back now that are causing nerve problems in her legs. Yet I cannot remember her ever mentioning lower back pain. We'll see what the MRI shows, my guess would be not much. Or maybe some incidental finding that of course gets blown way out of proportion.

Most of my friends keep tea flavours they don't like themselves because someone they know likes it. Did she say they normally had it but were out, or just 'we don't drink it, so we don't have it'?
It is very telling though. Of course we know this because we watch her vlogs, but they
never have any friends over. I don't think Judd even has any guy friends, except Paul. Jaquie of course substitutes real friendship with online asspats from strangers who watch her vlogs and make her think she has friends, but what's Judd's excuse?

I can't believe she has created this unlikable image for herself and even if she wanted to crawl out of the hole she has dug herself into, I don't think she knows who to be. WHo is the Jaquie without the chronic illness warrior title? Just guessing she wasn't popular in school, didn't have many friends, etc. and has become a virtual shut-in and turned to anonymous media attention-seeking by claiming illnesses. Even Janiece didn't like her at first but has also fallen into her own illness rabbit hole, copying Jaquie. There are so many chronically ill claimers on YT and I think they compete for the largest number of subscribers, followers, patreons and the greatest number of supportive, sympathetic comments. She is so unlikable in this role, is so suspect for lying, and such an incredible bad influence on young girls who may be insecure in themselves and are copying her. One way to undo some of this damage might be–if indeed there is any truth to her diagnoses–to be the example or warrior that lives fully DESPITE any illnesses. Setting and reaching personal goals, overcoming symptoms, and/or putting the focus on helping others would absolve her somehwat from this nighmare she has created for herself. Or she could train service dogs for others. Or work for a hospital, because she certainly has a talent on ways to obtain insurance coverage.

She gets continual asspats from her fan base. She seems to hold some magic card when it comes to getting whatever medical treatment she wants regardless of how OTT or unnecessary.
Most other people with chronic illness on
the other hand, have to work, have to interact with the world, have insurance companies that battle and deny everything,
don't seek and receive attention from
internet strangers, have goals they have to give up or struggle very hard to meet, deal with frustration from family members and
friends in regards to their own struggles in
coping with a loved one with chronic illiness and being depressed is normal when you look around a compare yourself to someone
who is healthy.

does order her own. Sometimes to eat "more than she thought she could" because since her feeding tube she is mysteriously having a lot of "good days, GI-wise", but sometimes she just eats two bites and leaves it at that. Even if she gets a doggy bag and lets Judd eat leftovers the next day, it's still a waste of money to order food in a restaurant and not eat it. And I'm pretty sure that despite her insisting they never waste food, Judd doesn't always
want her leftovers.

I mean, I get that animal lovers want to do something nice for a pet sometimes. I once got a very cute home made cat toy from someone I knew strictly online because I was talking about a problem I had with my cat and she thought it might help. That was just nice. But having strangers sent you stuff every day? Making an Amazon wish list and putting expensive toys on it? It's weird and creepy. Not to mention greedy.

I think it's also possible that someone would be able to see that her drama is mostly short-lived, she gets always the high-end treatments and goes to a lot of doctors (and a different one if the first one didn't indulge her) without seeing the extent of her lies. It's possible. I just don't know.
No. 432267
>>432223Amen to your perfect response.
And now she is going to call about the Smart Drive so she can do even less–all she has to do is steer. Steer where? Up and down the hall? She can't drive, can't lift it in and out of the house, etc.
As for her eating others' food, she could get a kid's meal (and eat it in her kiddie booster seat)and let them enjoy their own instead of always making everything about her. No worries about it being a waste of money–apparently money is no object for ANYTHING she wants.

It is why I come to this forum, because sometimes I just need to go OKAY! Other people deal with this, too!) (that makes me sound like an arsehole, I know.)
No. 432535
>>431905Revisited this comment from her and I have to say I would doubt she even received any OT for her autism. Wasn't she diagnosed as an adult? I presume she would claim getting OT for her claimed sensory issues - it can be difficult getting insurance to cover OT for kids and OTs tend to be in shorter supply (the company I work for always has a waiting list for clients seeking OT). OTs that work with adults tend to have a different focus than the ones that work with kids so it would be even more work to find an OT that works with an adult on autism related issues. I am sure its possible especially with daddy's money but I doubt it. (Since any sensory related autism issues would be present as a child and not just magically appear in adulthood).
And she doesn't mention any speech tx, which would probably be easier to get and focus more on social issues that an adult with autism might encounter.
There really is no reason/benefit to an adult being diagnosed with autism except to help them understand why certain things may be difficult for them. Seeing as Jaquie does nothing all day and seems to interact with her small circle of helper humans just fine the diagnosis is just another fun thing for the list.
No. 432558
>>432541If she is autistic, it wouldn't surprise me if she was diagnosed so late. At least in the UK girls are way underdiagnosed compared to boys because the way autism presents is different between the genders and a lot of what parents and teachers - the people who will notice and suggest evaluation - think of as autistic traits are really male autistic traits.
The thing that makes me think she has it and has had OT for it is that grating "thanks babe" thing she does while being especially demanding. It's like someone told her the socially correct thing to do is to thank them when they do something for you… and she interpreted it as long as she insincerely says thanks, she's in the clear to do whatever she wants.

>>432535I don't think you can diagnose autism via a highly-produced YT video. But what I do know is that Little Girl Jaquie is slowly replacing Grown-Up Jaquie in her YT videos, and I can't tell if she is doing the thing that young 20-somethings sometimes do to garner attention from their boyfriends/husbands or if it's really about autism. If it is about autism, she has given herself permission to stop trying to grow up.
Contrast this video to any recent video. Little Girl Jaquie has taken over the vlog and has become a video star over the past 10 months. To make space for Little Girl Jaquie, Grown-Up Jaquie has had to give up driving (she drove the first time her first feeding tube clogged, so it hasn't been that long), dress Little Girl Jaquie only in v-neck t-shirts and leggings (someone here even calls them her toddler clothes), pout regularly around Judd and Janiece and provide obstinate faces when it suits her mood, request more often than normal that her parents play games [that they played when she was a child] in the car and at home, delight over a children's plate (and loudly explain that she won't eat foods that she likes if they are touching foods she doesn't like), order milk instead of tea or something age-appropriate at a restaurant, gush about the pinkness of her wheelchair that someone calls her Barbie cart, use headphones for noise when she remembers, eat foods that little kids eat (cookie cereal, chocolate milk, mac & cheese, white rice, mashed potatoes, and smoothies purchased at a smoothie place, not made in her kitchen) and pretend to love Disney.
Regarding Disney, neither Little Girl nor Grown-Up Jaquie appear to have no real interest in it. Her videos at Disney feature training Harlow, mobility challenges in her chair/with Harlow, and food, etc. It's never about Disney fun. Little Girl Jaquie will occasionally appear to discuss food, I mean churros and hating Dole whips.
Grown-up Jaquie is very task-oriented and gets things done. If she worked as your administrative assistant, the office would be spotless, your task list done, all of your appointments made, calendared, and confirmed. She runs a YT channel, several Instagram accounts, sells T-shirts, manages a Patreon page and the communication that it requires; she makes all of her own doctor's appointments, deals with insurance, works out things like their budget, financing for their bed, orders the groceries online; she manages her feeding tube and mega deliveries of medical supplies, accesses her own port (let's face it, she's articulate enough that her primary doctor follows her instructions); trains Harlow; learned how to post videos to sites like junkmedia.com that will sell licenses the videos so she can make additional money.
She is a savvy and shrewd business woman who takes care of a very real business agenda.
Eventually she will turn 27 and realize it's more fun to be a woman and then people will be confused when she starts getting angry because everyone treats her like a child.
No. 432633
>>432604I just have one question- we know she does all this. But how does she keep track of all this but claims she can't follow along with one of Judd's movies he has to watch alone?
I suppose it's quite normal and common to have a childish side- who likes to reminisce and still has guilty pleasures, like a man who likes to play lego or drive remote control cars with his kids, or a woman who endulges in Christmas decorations etc…?
Jaquie has two polar opposite sides though- she seems to have a never ending supply of mental energy, which is impossible for anyone with as many chronic illnesses as her, who claims to be so sick (all the time). She lives an extremely high maintenance existence and seems to have an alter ego as a chronically ill child? Sorry if my interpretation is off. But it really points towards an underlying personality disorder rather than autism, jmo.
No. 432661
>>432604Did you ever do any profiling work? (I think it's good!)
I have seen that video before, but not recently. Just look at the start of the video - only her introduction. Her demeanor is SO different if you compare it with her more recent 'sick-face' videos. It's almost a different person.
>>432633The personality disorder that is imo most likely to be misdiagnosed as autism is schizoid personality disorder. (OK, and avoidant, maybe?) And to be honest that's not an unlikely candidate in Jaquies case. The personality disorder that correlates most with factitious disorder is borderline of course, but that's not what Jaquie shows us. For one thing, she is way too happy with her life. Of course narcissistic PD has been mentioned and is a possibility, but based on what we have seen thus far, I would lean more towards schizoid with narcissistic tendencies than outright narcissistic PD.
I won't go into it too deep, but it is possible to see the way she uses her illnesses as part of the phantasy life that is often seen in SPD. Her relationships with health professionals may be a ‘safe’ substitute for real friendships and intimacy: it enables her to ineract with others in a way that never gets too personal and is more factual-based. Plus, it is all about her and she doesn't have to listen to their personal story or factor in their feelings.
SPD would also explain her flat affect. This is also the reason why I don't see her as a someone with true narcissitic PD: someone with SPD will rarely get angry, even when directly provoked. A narcissist has more inner turmoil and has strong emotions but won't always express them. They tend to be either very jaleous of others or think others are jaleous of them. Or both. People with SPD merely lack strong emotions. They are not sensitive to critism, as opposed to your typical narcissist who tends to be
very sensitive to it but just tries not to show it. People with SPD often do have narcissistic tendencies though: they typically are not interested in what someone else has to tell, but would like to skip forward to what
they want to talk about.
I’m not even saying I think she has SPD, I just think she could have. I also think it fits better than ASD, because it explains how she can have ‘autism-like’ symptoms and at the same time have high executive function that allows her to be this business-woman. People with SPD can be very good and effective in what they do, as long as they can work alone.
She would not be a typical case though. Her child-like behaviour is still a bit odd, although it might fit into the ‘phantasy life’ that SPD patients often have that in a sense replaces the real world and real relationships. Much like her medical obsession and the relationships with her caregivers.
I'm interested in what others think about it, though.

>>432633>>432604I have never paid attention to Judd's movie choices, but I'll go out on a limb and guess that some of these films lack plot lines that follow from beginning to end. In other words, if a person is not familiar with the entire franchise of whatever he's watching, figuring out the plot can be ridiculously difficult.
I don't know anything about personality disorder, so you'll have to say more, but I do know about 20-something year-old girls. I am definitely not one of them (old enough to have parented one at this point), but I work with this age group regularly and there's a cadre of them that like to play little girl and let their boyfriends take care of them.
In my experience, they usually grow out of it, and often, the boyfriend, who was more mature to begin with, is rightfully confused. All he was doing was what his mamma taught him to do–take care of/protect his girlfriend–and suddenly she's complaining that he's over-protective and smothering her.
But, two weeks ago, the girl wouldn't walk from class to the dorm alone and now she thinks it's controlling that he brings her Starbucks and waits for her class to dismiss.
So, that's my observation, but I'm not a psychologist.

>>432214That person is smart… veiling the comment with lots of words to get a good point across - Jaquie has enough money and doesn't have to work, so she is not depressed.
When someone is alone with no money and a chronic illness, they get severe situational depression as a result of the anxiety from the situation.
When someone has their whole world catering to their needs, they feel secure and therefore don't have to have anxiety, thus preventing the situational depression.
Clinical depression is a whole other thing.

Based on the amount of water she is supposed to use, it's the largest size tube for her brand.
So, is it possible that the tube is too large? If too large, the tube would spin even when the balloon is full, causing the anti-kink tech to kink.
And, Dr. Doesn't-Know already said the placement isn't good. Let's hope his colleague, Dr. Actually Knows will do the surgery this time.

Once again, Judd's visit with his family got cut short. Emergency xrays? On a Sunday? When she can eat cookies and drink chocolate milk? Now Judd might have to take her to a restaurant b/c she can magically eat off his plate but not order her own.
Double tubes finally moved to the top of her wish list!

>>433285Here’s the tube that’s for the separate g and j (and just g or just j). You just stick it in and inflate the balloon, no X-ray or scope needed since there’s nothing to get in the right and wrong place. So switching it is easier, but twice the maintenance and twice the holes you need in your abdomen, which is twice the risk of complications of infection and stoma problems. That’s why combo tubes are usually suggested for eds patients, unless there’s a really good reason why a GJ wouldn’t work.
No. 433312
>>433296With the amount she goes on about pain then potentially she'd get daily pain meds BUT a lot of her reported pain is around 'subluxations' and the recommended treatment is phsyio, generally where you actually SEE your physio and if it is avaliable then hydrotherapy is great.
Additionally, contrary to what cows will have you beleive subluxations and dislocations are far LESS painful for us because everything is loose. You're literally talking a few days of an OTC painkiller with an OTC anti inflamatory.
Obviously there are people who dislocate at every movement but that is a seperate issue.
Also most people with EDS avoid surgery. For instance if your MVP isn't actually causing problems they don't operate on it. Shoulder completely unstable? It is unlikely surgery will result in improvement and that healing will never properly occur. Depends on the orthopod obviously.
Jackie is just a load of bullshit.
This is just a loaf of crap, this is wh in the UK you only get a PICC (even as a child) if you are having a LOT of access.

>>433676Today, Jaquie is trying to make a decision about whether to get two tubes. Her GI says if she keeps her current GJ tube, it will kink again because her stoma had to be placed in a weird location because of her weird anatomy. GI doc says she needs to have two tubes. But, she doesn't know if she wants two tubes.
Huh?
Isn't the decision fairly clear-cut or am I a dolt? Would her doctor really put in another GJ tube if it's only going to kink again? Or, can the doc use this stoma to put in only a feeding tube (no venting) that would not kink?
She goes on and on about how this is a personal decision for her to make.
I thought feeding tubes were life-sustaining (unlike, say an eyebrow lift) so wouldn't the kind of tube(s) she receives be determined by the U.S. expectations for "standard of care," not standard of patient desires?
On an odd note, she's not even flipping out at all about malnutrition like she was last time. She's not doing all the things–preserving energy. Just said at the end she's fine and the tube will be replaced in a few days.
No. 433701
>>433644(medfag)The Ketamine she gets has been used more for children (perfect for this girl-child) for procedural sedation. With it the patient is awake but drowsy and the effect of the Ketamine is that it lightly sedates and lowers pain receptors during the procedure and there is no memory of it afterwards. The biggest side effects are hypersalivating (too much spit), mild hallucinations, nausea and mild agitation while it is quickly wearing off. That is why she also gets Versed which alleviates the agitation and gives a smooth ride during and after the procedure. It is monitored procedural sedation, not general anesthesia, in which she would need respiratory assistance. She just has a prolonged pain relief from the small dose of Ketamine, which is a very individual response. Ketamine and Versed are given in VERY small doses and are short-acting so they wear off quickly. A larger dose could affect the respiratory system and in rare cases can cause a seizure. Using light sedation for these minor procedures is more to lessen anxiety because a tube change is really a minor out-patient-office procedure. The main concern with a j-tube is imaging to make sure it is in the jejunum and not coiled in the stomach.
Ketamine has been used in vet surgeries and as an illegal street drug is known as Cat Valium or Special K–and can be fatal when mixed with barbituates or alcohol or alone in larger doses.

She just wants a j button low in the belly like Mary Frey's—hers is a very short tube straight into the jejunum and she can change it herself at home and because it is so short it doesn't kink. The G tube would probably stay where it is because she just uses it to drain her semi-digested 'I can't eat' food from her stomach.

very strange. In todays vlog she even said that "that (support) is what any

If I'm in a difficult situation, I like to get input from family members, friends, heck sometimes even people online (depending on the situation) as to what I should do about it. That's just common sense. I agree that with medical stuff the suggestions can become a bit wild (especially from people who are into alternative/holistic treatments who will basically tell you if you're not willing to eat horse manure, you don't
want to get better) but in that doesn't mean that sometimes people can't have good ideas. And when it comes to other situations, I sure as H want suggestions from others.
>>433846She says that this time her G-port is also not working right. Which a) I don't think makes sense with the explanation she gave for why the kinks happen and b) would mean that this kink would be an even bigger disaster than her last one, because back then she could eat more because because she could stil 'vent' (which according to her explanation, means she can eat more then before she had her tube).

>>434197According to Jaquie - so take it with a big grain of salt - her GI thought she might have GP. She went to mayo for tests, but the mayo dr said she didn't have GP and suggested something else since her problem seemed to be that she was vomiting right after eating. He gave her some exercises she could do at home to try to see if they would help her. (I don't think she ever mentioned actually trying the exercises.) However the mayo dr had mentioned in his notes at some point that GP was a possibility before he settled on it not being GP.
For whatever reason her GI disagreed with the mayo dr and stuck with the GP diagnosis, Jaquie obviously preferred the GP diagnosis so she went with that. She used the mayo dr's notes suggesting possible GP before he changed his mind as further proof that it was GP, the mayo dr was just 'not a good fit for her'.
As for how she got her feeding tube so fast? She was 'severely malnourished' before they put it in, aka refusing to eat. I think she used her cyclic vomiting situation to convince the dr not to try a tube down her throat she'd just barf up.

-After they moved, she went to a new GI for her CVS. That GI wanted to test her for GP as well, to 'cover all the bases". Jaquie thought she didn't have it, but that the test couldn't hurt.
-Test came back borderline slow, so local GI dx'd GP.
-She went to Mayo for testing and among others saw a GI. GI didn't agree with the GP dx because of her symptoms and thought she had decreased gastric accomodation. Jaq would go back to Mayo to see a physio to learn special breathing exercises.
-Local GI said she did have GP, although it was a mild case. Also said decreased accomodation could also be a factor.
-Jaq never went back to the Mayo GI (so she never got those exercises) and the local GI also never looked further into it.
-After a little under a year, Jaq went back saying her GP got worse and she could hardly eat anything. They were going to put in an NJ, but if we believe Jaq's account, another hospital GI told them that as she needed a more permanent solution, they'd better put in a permanent tube right away.

>>434242I thought it was decreased gastric emptying, meaning her stomach is not digesting the food at an appropriate rate. Is that right? I don't fully understand the insanity of all of J's medical conditions. kek
I do know that I have a coworker who has GP IRL and she never had a feeding tube of any kind. I felt so bad for her because her life was miserable for decades. She was very malnourished, had major problems with reflux, always was struggling with what she could eat and what would make her sick. It was just horrible. She just now got surgery in her late 40's to fix it. I am not 100% sure what the surgery type was, but I find it extremely interesting that she never had a feeding tube to treat her GP. Maybe some medfags can weigh in on why the feeding tube seems to be the go-to treatment for GP, but in this situation she never had one.

>>433810Wait, why wouldn’t she just take a PPI if stomach acid is a problem? It’s so fishy. If I remember correctly, GERD doesn’t cause but is cormorbid with GP? They exacerbate the symptoms of each other is what I mean to say. If her GES showed a barely-there 14% and she’s worried about stomach acid, you literally just take the Prevacid and go about your life with some dietary changes. If low doses don’t work, you bump it up until it does.
My apologies if she is on medication for it, it’s hard to keep up with her and all the other munchie’s medications.

None of this applies to J though because of the aforementioned 14% remaining after 4 hours.

>>434390Samefag and blogging, but I had debilitating vomiting for years. Like, on a single walk across campus I would have to stop three times to puke in three different buildings. It took one upper endoscopy, a completely typical GERD diagnosis, and 60 mg of Prevacid a day and I haven’t had a problem with it since. I did get the GES and I too had very mild GP, but it wasn’t really a factor. As long as their was acid in my stomach to destroy my esophagus, my body wanted it out by way of vomiting. No acid - no problem.
I know it’s probably getting a little too personal, but the fact that she claims the acid as the offending substance and cause of her nausea and vomiting, but hasn’t mentioned an acid reducer to my knowledge. The fact that we KNOW she only has very mild GP that wouldn’t account for her supposed vomiting (that isn’t just purging)… It’s just so similar to what I went through (sans the munchie bullshit) that I have to question it.

No. 434755
>>434700Anyone who cared about bringing awareness to an illness wouldn’t portray such a false depiction of the illnesses jaquie’s munching. If anyone looks at her as a model of someone with eds and pots and mcas and gp and epilepsy and narcolepsy and autism (and we all know there’s people that do), they get a really fucked up idea of what those illnesses are. Sure she shows some “symptoms “ that actually belong to those illnesses, but she does almost a parody of them, having all the worst possible forms of every symptom at all times. If people think she’s actually got eds, they’ll assume everyone with it can’t walk. That everyone with pots faints every five minutes. That GP always requires a feeding tube but you can still eat whatever food you want. That autism is a cute quirky thing and not something that many mature adults deal with and wish they didn’t because it causes misunderstandings and hampers relationships. The problem is that anyone with those illnesses or syndromes or traits who’s living a fairly normal life is discounted or accused of lying because they’re not having “anaphylaxis” in a restaurant or getting a port for iv hydration when they have pots, or having all-day vomiting. And that leads to people who are actually sick not getting treatment or the care they need or even being believed that they are sick, just because they refuse to exaggerate their problems or deck themselves out with every piece of medical equipment available. There are people with chronic illnesses that want them invisible even, but they still want their illnesses not to be ignored or brushed off. And munchies ruin all that.
Okay rant over, apologies kek
No. 434761
>>434755I think what astounds me is her fervent fans refuse to believe despite constant video evidence that she CAN walk unassisted, that she CAN eat basically what she wants etc. It's just she's telling them over and over that she can't despite the clear evidence to the contrary.
I can happily tell you that a lot of wheelchair users can actually walk some amount, and most patients with GP can eat carefully because prokinetic drugs exist. It's just that she's determined to be the sickest because the sickest = more donations.
No. 434770
>>434761Don’t forget the most asspats, too. Surprisingly to many people, lots of people with illnesses, invisible or not, don’t want sympathy or to be pitied or given handouts (not actual government or private assistance for real problems, just the cash that munchies rake in for their attention whoring; there’s a huge difference if you actually need the help and have a valid reason to). Some don’t want any attention on their illness outside their medical treatment. Munchies like jaquie don’t live like they have illnesses, they live like they are their illnesses, their lives don’t have room for anything else. It is totally possible to have chronic illness, one or multiple, and have it be just part of your life that takes up time and energy, but like other parts of your life do.

Obviously she is already bored of that toy
No. 435549
>>435124And she already knows the SmartDrive will be SO much better for her, but she hasn't even tried it out. Well, I have. That and four other power assist systems. And let me tell you, if her problems were real, I would never recommend this particular system.
(Warning: wheelchair-power-assist-rant)
1. Because it goes at a fixed speed and doesn't slow down if you let it just roll, you'll have to pull through that forward motion to steer or to make an emergency brake. If someone has instable wrists and/or shoulders, that's risky.
2. She wants to use it at Disney, which no doubt is often very crowded. A system with a cruise control function is dangerous there and will likely only annoy the user because of how often you have to brake and power the system up again.
3. When you don't use the cruise control function, the system does not make it lighter to self propel.
4. When the unit is attached to the chair, it is next to impossible for someone to push you.
5. The unit sits behind your chair and 'pushes' your chair in front of it. The part that touches the ground doesn't have suspension or even air tires, which means that when it goes over any uneven terrain or even just tile grouts it feels like constant lashing in your neck. Isn’t her neck one of her biggest problems, pain-wise?
6. It's kind of difficult to use, and she hardly controls her chair as it is.
Now IF she had tried it out and compared it to other power assist systems out there, it would be different. If she had decided that despite the disadvantages it still works better for her than other systems, I would be the first to shut up about any problems one would
expect based upon theory. Sometimes things that in theory wouldn't be ideal turn out to work better than one would expect. But she hasn't even tried it
once. And despite it not being a very good fit
on paper, she already knows that this system will be sooo much better for her and she'll be able to wheel herself with it at Disney.
It is not a very good system to use in crowded places. Also, because your chair is being pushed forward by a unit that touches the floor, an uneven surface can cause the unit to loose it's grip. That means that you are at risk of suddenly losing power. The sales person I tried it with told me that for this reason,
they recommend it only for people who have enough strength to be able to 'catch' themselves and their chair if they are going up a slope and the unit would suddenly lose power. Jaquie says that when she was pushing herself in her chair without power assist it felt like her shoulders would sublux (as if she knows what that feels like.. and even if she was telling the truth: that just means you have to do more physio, girl). So if that were true, SmartDrive would definitely NOT be recommended for her. Even worse, she is planning to use it at Disney. The way she is using her chair, that’s just dangerous. Using a wheelchair in a crowded place is difficult enough as it is, and if there’s children around you have to be
VERY alert and need a good control of your wheelchair to avoid accidents. She just IS going to roll into a child one day. It’s not a matter of
if, it’s a matter of
when that is going to happen.
SmartDrive is mainly a good system for
active wheelchair users (it is one of the very few, perhaps even the only
really wheelie-friendly power assist systems out there) who already have a good ‘feel’ for their chair. Who have good upper body strength and function, but who either lack stamina or who use it when they have to propel themselves for an extended period of time. Because it’s so light compared to other systems, it is ideal for users who go out a lot by themselves. This just isn’t a factor in Jaquies situation. She NEVER goes out alone. So for her, a system that still enables Judd or someone else to push her should be more important than wether or not she can lift it in the car by herself. But of course, common sense is not something she has heard of. For some reason she wants this system and not try out different systems or
even just look up information online to find out which system would be the best fit given her situation.
I wonder if she’ll discover that it doesn’t work at Disney and ask for yet another system, or if she will abandon it and let Judd push her more. Or maybe try to get a power chair if she finds out it still requires a lot of strength to steer or make an emergency brake? Or she’ll somehow try to convince us and her fans that for her, it
does work in crowded places. We’ll see.
(Sorry if that is too detailed for some of you. I'm just trying to explain how funny it is that she thinks this system will be so much better for her. I also can't stand that she just gets another five thousand dollar system without knowing if it'll work or not. It's like she doesn't even care. It doesn't matter to her if the toys she gets are even medically or practically the best choice, as long as she gets them. These are VERY expensive systems and some people have had to save for many years to finally be able to get one.)
No. 435553
>>435035I think it's more in comparison to Janiece. Which, let's be honest, is just a fact: Jaquie edits WAY better than her. But you are right: she is also very repetitive. And it's getting worse. Her earlier vlogs are much more watchable.
>>435125Yeah, that remark was suspect. I'm still not 100% convinced, but with her saying that it definitely makes it more likely that she is indeed lurking here. But it's also possible that someone else mentioned it to her. It IS pretty noticable after all that she can be very monotone and then suddenly perk up when she is talking about new toys ehm.. tools.
>>434887I know, wow. I don't know what they all cost, but come on. No one needs
that many subscriptions. But I'm glad that her narcolepsy still enables her to watch hours and hours of television every day.
>>435032What are we thinking here? Does anyone think that maybe she is 'hesitant' for the seperate tubes because she is hoping they will instead give her a standing order for TPN to 'keep her alive' if and when her tube kinks again and she is waiting to have it changed out? I get a feeling there's something behind her hesitation. I mean, she wasn't hesitant AT ALL when she was admitted to hospital for placement of an NJ tube and they suddenly decided to jump to a GJ instead? If that would’ve happended to me, I'm pretty sure I would've said no, asked them to put in the NJ and give me information on the GJ tube so I could think about it at home. I think her hesitation is either because the pain is or was genuinely worse than she expected it to be, she is only acting as if she doesn't want it, OR her hesitation is because she is hoping to get something else out of it. That could be things like the drama of the kinks, the fact that it gives her a reason not to run her nutrition for a few days, or something else, like her angling for TPN.

No. 435574
>>435549Sorry, samefagging.
I don't think she'll go for a powerchair. 1. It doesn't embody the image she's going for plus they don't tend to come in pink, and 2. there's no way she could fit one into their car unless she got something like an I-Go or FoldAWheel, and considering how much of a fuss she's made over her SPECIAL CUSTOM WHEELCHAIR, I don't think princess Jacquie would be happy with a one-size-fits-all model.

No. 435629
>>435549Excellent post regarding her power assist chair–thanks. I'm a medfag and also knew this was not the w/c for her, since it still requires a lot of shoulder, arm and hand manuevering. If she indeed has neck pain, this will certainly exacerabate it and yes, she is definitely a danger to pedestrians, especially at Disney, when children are likely to dart out in excitement. It is so odd that this type of chair system would be prescribed for her without a trial. Even if there is no legitimate neck issue, she's at risk of real injury due to her deconditioned state, from no PT program program to build muscle, strengthen her supposed EDS joints, stc.
As for dividing the tubes, I think we all assume she has made the decision for her "team" already. What any ethical doctor needs to emphasize is that since she had a recent local MRSA infection for which she never finished the best course of antibiotic treatment, she is now at risk of a flare b/c MRSA can lie dormant for years now that she's been exposed. Any invasive procedures put her at a higher risk for a more serious systemic infection and since she has already decided she can't/won't use Vancomycin, that could be a truly serious problem—meaning a hospitalization with controlled/slow/pre-medicated IV antibiotics. The weird anatomy issue is bogus–feeding tubes are placed in babies and children every day—it might just take a more qualified GI or IR doc—and she might not qualify with a more knowledgable/experienced doc who witnesses her MunchBrain history and demeanor. Bets are she will continue with her special hoodwinked docs who cater to her every whim.
And by the way, Judd most likely has/had a staph infection in his wrist. I also noticed the sore on his nose. Staph infections can easily go systemic, especially near mucous membranes (nasal membranes).

>>435549Funny. I thought my post would be too much information/blogposting (as in: speaking from experience) so I'm glad to see people found it useful.
Also funny: if I believed her problems were real, and if we ignore that a wheelchair is not recommended for especially POTS etc., I'm pretty sure which system
would be best for her. I'm not going to say it though, because for all we know, that'll be the next thing she has them order for her! Those systems are all about the same price, so if you're going to get one it's not about that. It'about getting the one that fits your specific problems and situation best.
>>435629>>it might just take a more qualified GI or IR docAnd that there is, imo, the problem. No ethical doctor would put a feeding tube in someone with her GES results. They would first have her try
every other alternative, sent them for a repeat GES and have them evaluated for other problems including psychiatric before putting a hole in their belly. And now her GI apparently screwed up the GJ placement. Instead of sending her to another GI who is more experienced, he just sents her to a surgeon to put in a second hole. It's just SO wrong. I know Jaquie is manipulative, but her doctors seem to be happy to let her push them around.
>>435632>>many legitimate wheelchair users do this, but arrange trials and test runs first to see if it's a viable optionThat was my point. I really don't understand why she didn't find a place to try it out first. You don't order a 5000-dollar toy without knowing if it works for the game you want to play.

>>435553Re : her hesitation over the two tubes, I think you have a very good point anon. She likely does have some angle we can't see yet. TPN is definitely a possibility, as is her liking the tube "kinks" because it gives her a few days to try and lose some of the weight she has gained. (I couldn't help but notice that prior to the "kink" she stated that she was able to eat 30% of her daily calories and stop night feeds, and now that the magic toob isn't working she just stares at Judd while he eats and mugs for the camera…)

No. 435671
>>No. 435637>>435629"No ethical doctor would put a feeding tube in someone with her GES results".
The GI doc has committed to the feeding tube, though, so now it hard to deny it. It was a placement FU from the get-go and now he is liable if he doesn't 'make it right'. If she is gunning for TPN based on her vast YT 'education' from other YT vloggers, and not from competent educated docs, she is in for trouble, because with her ED, venting and puking, she would need lab draws to monitor electrolytes. She's getting herself into a gray area of treatment with the docs she manupulates who clearly don't have her best interest in mind.
I fully understand the "frushtration" (her pronunciation) of people on this site and having been in the medical field myself for much longer than she's been alive, malpractice is screaming and yet, I can't help but see that she is on a medical downward spiral that could actually jeopardize her genuine medical condition. She is influencing young girls who think she is a rock star (one is a 'loved one' of mine, which is the only reason I follow her vlogs and I am mortified at how she has influenced her).
Appreciate your spin on her.

>>435673Being able to self-propel is one thing, but if you
always have someone with you, not being able to lift the chair just isn't an issue. Not being able to lift the chair in the car doesn't limit her at all.
Also, her chair together with the power assist is about 10.000 dollar, maybe even closer to 15.000. IF she really needed a chair, a normal manual chair that is fitted to her size (not custom, just well-fitted) would be somewhere between 500-1200 dollar depending on the type. She would be able to sit comfortably in it and would be able to self propel for a little bit: in stores with an even floor she'd have no trouble at all, and outside she would be able to wheel herself around enough for her needs. For longer distances and outings like Disney, someone could push her.
No. 435735
>>435702I use a wheelchair full time because I can’t walk more than a couple of steps without falling and hurting myself, but obviously that’s not the same situation as Jaquie. But it’s really kind of useless to have a chair you can’t push yourself even if you’re only using it part time, or that’s what I’d think? Cause I’d imagine you get a chair so you can do something you wouldn’t be able to do like go grocery shopping, but if you still need a person to come along then might as well just not do the thing in the first place.
I mean I had a transport chair tho for a few months before I got my custom chair and I only got my custom chair cause I was going to college independently and it was impossible to push that heavy ass chair all around campus on my own. So I don’t know - it seems legit that she might genuinely want a chair that actually increases her ability to do stuff on her own rather than make her more reliant on people? Assuming she was not a munchie of course who probably straight up doesn’t need the chair in first place.
I guess what I’m saying is that I don’t see the idea of having a custom easy to propel chair being totally bogus or impossible for those who only use chairs on outings. Jaque of course clearly didn’t do any research and doesn’t have a good chair for all her “needs” and so, logically, her chair is useless. But if done correctly, an ultralight chair, I think, could feasibly take someone that never goes out alone to being able to go out alone safely (which is the goal anyways, right?)

"…have you sat down with your "loved one" and explained why Jaquie is full of shit?"
No, I have never discussed Jaquie with my friend's dtr because she confides in me regularly by text mostly & actual phonecalls and I don't want to be confrontational or threatening in any way. I am not a basher for the iGen but I think to communicate with them, you have to do it on their level. With their sensory overload from media and electonics, a direct conversation can be almost painful for some. Have you been on an elevator recently and observed how many others are looking down at their iphones and uncomfortable with direct eye contact? I think that is part of Jaquie's YT game—she thinks her YT hobby is her job.
My 'loved one' has some documented credible medical issues (from very very reputible docs) but I am seeing the psychological effect some YT & IG chronic illness claimers/vloggers have on her (she is a huge fan of Jaquie and others). My 'person' does NOT have unscrupulous doctors and Jaquie's toys are somewhat tantalizing to her and she doesn't understand why SHE doesn't qualify. I am in the medical field and see so many that cannot qualify for equiment or treatments that would greatly enhance their lives and treatment. So for now, I listen and observe and support her, because whether my 'person's' symptoms are real, factitious or just magnified, I love her and want her to know she has an unconditional safe person to talk to. She is not as lost as Jaquie but I hold out hope for all of these troubled girls. Some of them are sure to be more confidant and wiser as they continue growing up.

>>436397>>Anyone catch where … Judd said "and now you'll be running people over at Disney"?Yup. He's a cop. He knows bad drivers and the danger they cause.
And regarding the wheelchair lifting, I'm pretty sure she said she
could lift the wheelchair when the Twion wheels weren't attached, but she couldn't take them apart because of her heat intolerance. And that's totally not a thing you can do inside the home if you can walk as well as she can. And also, as we saw and she acknowledged herself, she can lift her chair inside the car. But not her walker over a small bump. Another magical thing, I'm sure.
And did you all notice how she almost never says she
needs the power assist, and why she needs it? She has said quite often and in different vlogs that she needs the power assist "because it was determined in my evaluation that.." etc.
I don't know, but most people wouldn't use a phrase like that. For example if you're in a wheelchair and someone asks you why, you say something like "because I cannot walk", or: "cannot walk
very well", or maybe you say what condition you have that's causing it. But you do not say "in my wheelchair evaluation it was determined that I needed one" or "my doctors noted that I couldn't walk", or some other explanation that is points to what
others determined for you.
It's like she is defensive about it before someone even can phrase a critical question. You see, it's not up to
her, someone else 'determined' it.

>>436870Narcotics are contraindicated with the Xyrem she is taking for her narcolepsy. She talked before about having to stop the Xyrem for a few days when she had her tube put in because of it. I presume she can stop it for a few days, but not for much longer. (If she has narcolepsy, that is. And if she doesn't, then she can't do it because she'll have to come clean about that, first.)
She also tried to tell us that she couldn't take narcotics because of her gastroparesis. I don't think that makes much sense, to be honest. She's already on a feeding tube. And if you're really in severe pain, you'll just have to deal with the side effects. Plus, her gastric emptying is borderline slow, so even it would become a little slower if she took narcotics (which is a
possible side effect, it's not like it always happens) she probably still wouldn't be symptomatic.

>>437788Everything about Jaquie is adjustable, starting with the supposed diagnoses she claims and includes what and when she can eat orally, when she will have violent nausea and vomiting and when she overhwelmed with pain. Of course, the pain is adjustable if she is in Orlando with her BFF. Tomorrow she will predictably be in nearly intolerable hip pain again because she is due for the Toradol hip injection, of course with her other BFF—Ketamine. But while in Orlando, she was crawling on the floor with her SmartDrive toy, waving her arms while outside in the Barbie convertible, able to hike up and down the steps at Janiece's to climb into her bed and able to bang her wrist on the Barbie car to zip around Disney. Once the visit is over, she will be back to her blah face and listing her terrible, awful, horrible symptoms—and burning up the phone calling her various doctors.
I am curious if she will divulge the type of infection in Judd's arm. I am sure if it is MRSA won't because it would be a reflection of how meticulously clean and careful she is.

Poor Judd, he just wanted to talk about his Star Wars find for a hot second but It wasn't about Jaquie so she just talks right over him about her medical shit. Couldn't capture it but he looks legit sad for a moment there.
It's ok Judd, I wanted to know about the resistance bomber! So would Jaquie if made the effort to care about something unrelated to herself.
(Oh, and of course she "starts to fade" and gets "super nauseous and headachey" in the Star Wars store but as soon as she's in the car and away from Judds special interest she seems quite chipper.)

At one point, she mentions because of the SmartDrive "[they] could even hold hands" and Judd comments, "Let's not take it that far." It doesn't seem like they have a very good relationship at all. In fact, since they've been together since high school it's possible this is the only relationship either of them have ever known. That's an even bigger red flag for me concerning Jacquie's lack of interest in Star Wars. Star Wars is old than Judd – he's probably been into it since before they started dating and she has never, ever cared.

Sometimes I wonder if he's secretly gay or something. But I have a new theory. Maybe it's just because he's very childlike. His obsession with toys, his hatred of carrots, the way he talks sometimes (he gets really whiney but he kinda tries to hide it) he doesn't seem to be into much adult stuff. Even his career is like a little boys fantasy. Even when he IS acting mature it's almost like he's doing just that, acting.

>>439093I wondered that, too. Also, if I ever would act that way, I would NOT want it on YouTube. Wow. However, Jaquie seems to think it's a hoot.
The way she talks about the ketamine doesn't make much sense, either. First of all, it doesn't normally work on any other pain than nerve pain, specifically pain that is caused NOT by pinched nerves, etc., but by a so called 'wind-up' of the nervous system where pain nerves are firing without there being any cause for it. Hence why it works for CRPS. I would believe it if she had another type of nerve pain and it worked for that, but I do not believe it works for her joint pain. Also, it usually takes a few hours or even days before the effect is fully felt. However to be fair, that is with a lower dose. That lower dose is used because ketamine affects chronic pain on a much lower dose then the dose that is needed to sedate someone. When ketamine infusions for pain are given, these are given at a subanesthetic level, i.e. the patient is conscious. They may be dizzy or even have hallucinations, but they are not 'out'. The ONLY reason she is having it at a higher dose, is because her insurance doesn't cover ketamine infusions for pain (probably because it's not indicated for the type of pain she is claiming to have) so they use it during a procedure as sedation. So her explanation about "they make sure I hit the right dose for pain relieve and when they use it for my feeding tube change it's just to knock me out", doesn't make any sense.
Also, normally pain relief from ketamine can last for months, sometimes even up to a year. Sometimes it takes multiple infusions to get to that point, though. Yet after only one infusion she and her doctor decided that since it only lasted for four weeks, they were going to do joint injections with ketamine as anesthetic and space it out as to do them every four weeks to give her maximum benefit of the ketamine. Yeah.. only it doesn't work like that.
And of course she was sitting cross legged directly after the injection in her hip. So much pain, y'all.
I wonder if doctors ever test the stability of her joints, especially her hip, when she is out? I know it is sometimes done before surgery on an unstable joint, because the patient is completely relaxed so it is easy to test the passive stability of said joint.

Meanwhile, just about every pain patient out there would wish the treatment she is getting actually worked for chronic, severe pain. If only if was so easy, eh?
That's what pissed me off most about her. With al her 'spreading awareness' she is making it seem so easy. Every symptom she has is getting some high-end treatment, it's all covered by insurance and if it's not they find a loophole, and it all works SO well.
Have gastroparesis? Just get a surgical feeding tube. I mean, who needs months and months of nasal tubes to gain back that shitton of weight you lost, then try all sorts of diets and shakes to see if you can keep it on without the tube, only to be tubed again after a few weeks or months because you lost too much weight again? Or who needs to try thirteen kinds of pain meds and years of physio if you can just shot some toradol in your joints and have some ketamine every four weeks? Who needs to do inpatient pain management and psychological support to try and deal with everything anymore if there's no such thing as intractable chronic pain? Who needs to try different meds and compression stockings for POTS, just get a port and infuse "on the go", right? No need to do physio or walk in ugly orthopedic boots, just sit your ass in a 12000 dollar wheelchair and be 'the cool kid in the cool wheelchair' (Judd's words!) at Disney.
No need to avoid allergens either. If you want a real christmas tree, just get one. If you have an allergic reaction, you can just put some IV benadryl through your port, right?
It's all so useless, and I'm getting tired of her. I'm especially tired of people calling her - and people like her - 'brave' or 'strong' in the comments. She probably likes that, though. Why? Because that's what you say to a little kid if they are sick. If a little kid has to have a shot or needs some blood drawn, you tell them how brave they are even if they scream. That's just what you do. You call them brave simply for enduring it. Adults however, just need to learn how to deal with stuff. Of course, there's some stuff that no one should have to deal with. But in the adult world, no one is 'brave' for simply having an illness. The spoonie community just doesn't seem to have gotten that letter. Their mailman is probably in too much pain. And sans ketamine.

Apologies upfront for medfagging.
The most disturbing thing about her vlog today (12/5) was that she is already scheduling joint injections every 4 weeks just so her pain management "team" can give her a therapeutic dose of ketamine along with the Toradol joint injections. That is the only way her insurance will qualify the ketamine anesthetic. No mention of waiting to see the results of this injection—just schedule the next one–and how does she now which joint to choose? It is highly unethical of the doctor to authorize the higher dose and to randomly inject a joint just so she can qualify for the ketamine. She doesn't even mention joint pain unless it has moved to the top of her symptom rotation and based on her videos, she is quite capable of moving easily when she is having fun with her toys or munchie friend. Ketamine for procedural sedation is supposed to be given in a small dose to allow the patient to be alert but drowsy, easily arousable, awake but not aware of anything painful. In her case, she is being given a much larger dose under the guise of light sedation for the hip injection.
As for the after-effects of the ketamine, it is not just a powerful pain anesthetic but it is also a psychedelic street/recreational drug in the same category as PCP (angel dust) that is highly mentally addictive, causing hallucinations, catatonic staring, paranoia and an acid-trip-like experience. It is one of the known date rape drugs. Long term side effects of routine use are permanent memory impairment, toxic liver and bladder problems, learning/retention difficulties and in several studies, proves to have more adverse effects than Morphine. Good and bad effects of ketamine can last up to about 8 months, so she will be possibly compounding the risks if she is using it every 4 weeks, and she stated today that she qualifies (insurance coverage) for ketamine for GJ tube changes as well as the joint injections. She said today "I would love to just shoot up all my joints with Toradol every 4 weeks–that would be great for my pain". That is a very disturbing statement and says a lot about her treatment addiction.
With someone like Jaquie, who has been so non-compliant with licensed medical advice to exercise in a formal PT program for both her supposed EDS and POTS, to eat a specific GP diet, to wear compression stockings for POTS, etc, it is reprehensible that a doctor is prescribing routine monthly injections/anesthetic for her questionably documented conditions and in doses not recommended for those procedures.
And Judd is just a bobble-head, nodding "yes—yes" to everything she says and does.(apologize)

It is highly unethical of the doctor to authorize the higher dose and to randomly inject a joint just so she can qualify for the ketamine.I agree 100%. It's completely nuts. The first thing I thought when she had her first i.a. injection/ketamine combo was how stupid it is to do two things at the same time because that makes it impossible to evaluate the effect properly. But now it has gone even further. Intraarticular injections are not without risk and they are usually reserved for either incidental use for a specific injury, OR serial injections in a joint for patients who have one,
maybe two joints that are damaged by e.g. OA who do not react well to oral meds and who are too young for joint replacement surgery. For patients with pain in multiple joints they should be used VERY sparringly. That is because an ethical doctor would not subject a patient to intraarticular injections every few weeks in multiple joints. If that was an ethical, effective, save and sensible treatment, almost every patient with arthritis, EDS or other joint conditions would have it done.
I could somewhat understand the injections in her neck and maybe her 'worst' hip because she can't take narcotics. But NOT 'whichever joint we choose in four weeks'. That's not practicing medicine. That's the injecting equivalent of a pill mill. She's a paying patient (well, her insurance and/or daddy is), so she gets whatever she wants.
I'm also pretty sure that most, if not ALL other pain specialists would not continue a treatment like ketamine infusion if a patient only experienced relief 'one week for joint pain, three weeks for muscular pain, and four weeks for headache' from it. Also funny how she decided that that's how it works for her after only one infusion, while most of the time ketamine for pain will continue to work for longer with each subsequent treatment. Or at least the first few infusions.
'Treatment addiction', indeed. It is clear that she absolutely loves it. She said herself that she had been looking forward for it for a long time and it is also clear that she loves the effect of the ketamine - although I am pretty convinced that at least part of her goofing on ketamine is put on. She loves to have an invasive "pain management plan". I'm pretty sure that just taking a daily pill would not make her as happy, even if that pill was more effective than the combined effect of the Toradol and ketamine.
It's.. wow. I just have no words for it. I don't understand how she can somehow find the most crazy and unethical doctors to give her whatever treatment she wants. She has found AT LEAST three of them (her 'POTS-doctor', the GI and the pain doc) who have been treating her long-term. I'm also wondering if this is somehow more common in the US. I'm pretty sure that she wouldn't be able to find as many for-profit unethical doctors in most other countries. Money talks, especially in a land with so many doctors in private practice. I mean, surely at least ONE of these doctors should realize something's not right in her story? The way she reacts to ketamine, for example. That doesn't work she way she is reporting, so that in and of itself should be a huge red flag. Add to that her whole story, the simple fact that one patient having ALL that illnesses is a statistical impossibility, and it would be very, VERY stupid of them not to see at least that
something ain't right with it all.
Just wondering: she has mentioned quite often that she cannot take narcotics, but has she ever said why she doesn't take a daily NSAID, or even just tylenol? I seem to remember her taking Toradol orally (or through her feeding tube, whatever) and saying she couldn't take it too often because it wouldn't work as well anymore if she did that, but I'm not sure if this. Does anymore know or remember why she doesn't just take an NSAID with a PPI as part of her 'pain management plan'? Or amitryptyline? Pregabalin? If her pain reacts to ketamine so well, it
must be neuropathic pain, so these are the kinds of meds we'd be talking about in any other patient. Although with the way she 'likes' ketamine, they'd better not have her try medical marihuana though. She'd probably take more than she needs just for pain relief. Between the IV benadryl and the ketamine, I really think she likes the drowsiness/loopiness it causes. I also wonder if she would still want the joint injections if she would have to be awake for it. I've never had injections in my hip, but I've been told it's not very comfortable. That is a long, long needle they need to get in there. But I'm rambling. Sorry guys, it's just that the whole situation is SO crazy I don't know where to start.. or when to stop.

It's not surprising to me that she's getting the pain meds she wants how she wants them. I live in the Tampa area as well, and the region is I think one of the worst nationally for prescription pain medication abuse.
