What Is A "Spoonie"?
People who identify as 'Spoonies' are referencing 'The Spoon Theory,' written by a woman with lupus to explain the chronic illness experience to a healthy friend who asked her what it really feels like to live with her medical problems.
https://butyoudontlooksick.com/articles/written-by-christine/the-spoon-theory/The Spoonie Community is, in general, a legitimate supportive network for people dealing with chronic illness. In recent years, however, it has become polluted with SJW types and has attracted a new breed of attention-seeking catfish: people who lie about, fake having, and/or exaggerate existing medical problems and crises for no benefit other than to garner attention.
What Is Munchausen By Internet (MBI)?
From Dr. Marc Feldman, an expert in factitious disorders including Munchausen Syndrome, first described Munchausen By Internet in 2000:
>>…the advent of online support groups, combined with access to vast stores of medical information, enabled individuals seeking to gain sympathy by relating a series of harrowing medical or psychological problems that defy comprehension to misuse the groups.[1] Communication forums specializing in medical or psychological recovery were established to give lay users support in navigating often confusing and frustrating medical processes and bureaucracy. Communities often formed on those forums, with the goal of sharing information to help other members. Medical websites also became common, giving lay users access to literature in a way that was accessible to those without specific medical training. As Internet communication grew in popularity, users began to forgo the doctors and hospitals often consulted for medical advice. Frequenting virtual communities that have experience with a medical problem, Feldman notes, is easier than going through the physical pain or illness that would be necessary before visiting a doctor to get the attention sought. By pretending to be gravely ill, Internet users can gain sympathy from a group whose sole reason for existence is support. Health care professionals, with their limited time, greater medical knowledge, and tendency to be more skeptical in their diagnoses, may be less likely to provide that support.Links to Articles and Info on MBI:

Seems like someone who never takes responsibility for her own actions.
She got the "concussion" because she claims someone distracted her dog and she was too busy to pay attention to the fact that her dog was distracted and missed the alert.
POTS service dogs are suspicious enough based on what the POTS anons on here mention. Not to mention that alert dogs aren't meant to be full substitutes for other methods of monitoring. People with diabetic alert dogs don't just stop monitoring their blood glucose and solely wait for the dog to tell them they are low because guess what dogs are living creatures capable of making mistakes.

TLDW: she has a neuroendocrine tumor on her pancreas that is cancerous, and could be on other endocrine glands. They're doing an unnamed scan and bloodwork to find them. If there are no other tumors the one on her pancreas will be removed when her pancreatitis is gone and she's not malnourished (impossible since she hasn't run feeds of 40 ml). She says the tumor is slow growing and that surgery should cure her. If there are no other tumors she won't need chemotherapy.
An interesting thing to note is she specified this is not pancreatic cancer, which she neglected to do on her instagram for a while (even going so far as to tag #pancreaticcancer) she was called out for this and the #pancreaticcancer is not on the most recent posts. Still tagged on a lot of week old posts and several of her posts are now the top results when you look at the tag. No wonder she won't edit the comment to not delude her followers.

Wtf.
No "us tubies" are not fabulous with "our tubes" because they are gross, can be really painful, another thing to take care of, annoyingly inconvenient, and lowers self esteem.
Tubies are fabulous if you are a child or a parent with a child who needs one to help them feel better about having to have them.
"Tubies fantastic with our feeding tubes"
What other type of tubes go through your abdomen that are hooked up to a creamy looking liquid? It's like she challanged herself to say tube anything as many times as she could in this caption.
In regards to the drain bags, yes insurance will cover them if a Dr orders them through your enternal feed company that delivers the supplies and feeds.
So if they aren't sending drain bags then her dr didn't RX it.
Using formula bags is just stupid and shows she's absolutly sneaking around with it.
She doesn't need a drain bag, she can open her G port when she needs to vent over the toilet or sink or whatever..its pretty rare for anyone to need a 247 drain. Hell she could go hospital style and vent into a bottle or vomit bag if her complaint is she can't get up and down enough to vent that way.
You can buy these bags online..but the only drain bag there really is is that farrel bag and it allows exactly what it's supposed to for GP patients. And her Dr would RX them if she needed them.
So yes she's using it to purge to loose weight to claim worsening sickness.
Totally surprised they would place a GJ to begin with but with as high as her tube is makes me think her Dr was on top of it because that placement makes purging harder to do and a G port on a GJ isn't the ideal tube for venting so at least she can't purge all the things and they will catch on and eventually make it just a J it'll show in her lab work if she isn't running enough formula to make up for what she purges (which we know she's no where near that) and by comparing her lab work before tube and with tube they will see a change and essentially have proof of what's going on.
I'm surprised she didn't cry about not getting an open surgery to place the tube. Oh well, just make things sound worse so you can feel better about just having an upper GI/larp. to place the tube and don't have an open scar.
She makes me twitch

Also if your doctor wants you to use it for venting/draining they will generally give you a larger tube that doesn't clog up as much. Think CH 18 or bigger. But since those tubes aren't as "cute" who would want them

>>439995Yeah, it looks like her MS is not flaring despite the clearly photoshopped screenshot of her 'lesions' (looked nothing like MS but hey), she didn't manage to give herself sepsis again to the point of an ICU admission, even her urosepsis is largely sorted out, so she's about to go down the mental health road for a bit. She's asked about self injury earlier, then had an iron transfusion, so I assume we've got our Junior Kelly Ronahan Award Winner, complete with blood.etting and fake MS.
Paige is an unbearable, intolerable ass, as is her clique of mountaineers (Lily Tock et al. - they're all somewhat sick, but the sheer level of over the top milking is just fabulous), and so I wouldn't be surprised if we had the pleasure of her reappearance quite soon.

Ok, OK, anxiety
attacks can seemingly come out of nowhere (in fact, they usually do!) but how would a dog be able to react to that before they come? There's no physiological changes they could react to. Not until the attack is happening, that is. And when it is, you kind of cannot miss that.. one of the criteria for having an anxiety attack is "feeling like you're going to die". Not really something you'd need a dog to alert to, is it? And IF a dog would somehow be trained to alert say the partner of it's handler when they are having an anxiety attack.. how would a dog know the difference between raised heart rate from an anxiety attack or from standing up in a person with POTS?

But how could this happen? I mean: I know what
she did (or rather: didn't) do, but how can a doctor who KNOWS that she can quite litteraly
stomach liquid food without ANY problem talk surgical tubes and pacemakers? If her stomach can process liquids, she can keep the weight on, period. If somehow she can't do that on her own, they can write her a script for liquid meal replacements. But aside from anti emetics and a good PPI, any medical intervention should stop there. If someone in her situations would be very dangerously malnourished, they could give her an NG to help her gain weight. Since she does fine on liquids, it would be even
better to have feeds go through her stomach so it doesn't slow down more.
What's the matter with all these doctors?

>>440350Because he can only see what she presents to him. I am sure that what she tells social media and what she presents to him are two very different stories.
On social media she goes on about her anorexic thoughts. But it seems like the history of anorexia has stopped her doctors at home from taking her "super severe gastroparesis" seriously (aka they saw right through her) so she has learned not to mention it to her current doctor. I would hope that the history of anorexia would be in her medical records but who knows. If it is, she probably makes sure to stress to the doctor that she has been in recovery for over 2 years and that anorexia is not longer part of her life. Her doctor doesn't have access to her social media to see her lies.
Not sure why a doctor would think that telling someone who has been angling for a tube the whole time (or at least reports symptoms that are way more severe than test results suggest) and has a history of anorexia that she will get the tube if she loses more weight - its just encouraging the anorexic behaviors. I wouldn't be surprised if Dani has been attempt to starve herself to lose weight.
Ultimately Dani will lose in the end. Even if she gets a tube it is not going to get her the attention that she wants. She watches and looks up to social media spoonie stars with husbands and tubes galore but her "boyfriend" of 14 years is likely not going to become an attentive and doting husband because she has a tube sticking out. The tube isn't going to make her a more attractive/pleasant individual to be around.

>>440479You are likely right - or she heard what she wanted to hear.
She said she goes back in January and if she keeps losing weight they will then talk about a gastric pacemaker/j-tube.
I can see her going to see the doctor and asking about a tube and the doctor saying she isn't at that point yet and explaining that to get to that point she would have to have lost more weight. And before going to a j-tube they would trial a NJ tube. The doctor probably told her she wasn't at the point of needing a tube yet but in her mind she heard that she will get the tube if she loses more weight (not great for someone with a hx of anorexia). He didn't say the next visit she would get one but rather that if things got worse they would talk about it in the future (aka they didn't need to talk about it right now because she isn't near that point)

https://www.google.co.uk/amp/www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-5019355/amp/Colt-dog-fills-owner-s-shopping-cart-groceries.htmlSo, how long before someone tips them off about her fake suicide attempt and her face gets dragged through the dirt?
And before people start with "Oh no, she has a traumatic brain injury that made her fake her suicide"
If she's fucking coherent enough to be posting updates on her "critical condition" she's coherent enough to know what she's doing is fucked up and should not be done.
I honestly believe she deserves all the backlash she gets for this one.

There are a few comments on Janaye's most recent video about her faking her suicide attempt.
Janaye has made her Instagram private and has blocked many people who had considered themselves close friends. See the comments on Dom's post

>>440723To clarify, Lynn appears to be the same person who posted the two photos from the hospital and a photo of Colt on Janaye's Instagram account, stating that she had Janaye's phone and access to her house and that she was taking care of Colt.
The first photo she posted was of a cross and rosary on a bible to announce that Janaye was in hospital after attempting suicide. This was a day or two after Janaye had posted two images alluding to suicide.

Autumn is good at being super sick when it is convenient for her. If there is something fun/something she really wants to do she is miraculously able to make it through (despite the fact that she typically claims that the simplest of chores causes her to collapse. She will probably make a post in which she claims she is having a good time but all out of spoons just to keep up the sick charade. The port sticking out (and eww airplanes are so gross - you would definitely want to cover it up) will probably be enough to make her feel special while enjoying the things she wants to do (although I don't think her immediate family buys the super sick act).

Shes Definetly reading this page.(aa if thats not her normal. I think she does it so she can pick up on new behaviors and desires)
Simply put Dani, we know you want to ask for a
tube. You have been symptom stalking and trying to get people to tell you how to magically get sick and needs tubes on Facebook support groups but plays a different tune on IG..her fb and her many IGs do not correlate.
Hate to crunch your dream here but the only tube you'll get is a painful and gross NJ tube that you will grow to hate (wait..not a normal person so probably thrilled 247 with it..stupid me)
And that's only if she actually looses weight and her GES results don't change or worsen.
There are many steps being skipped here so I still back the person that said she is just totally faking it or the Dr had mentioned other steps down the road depending on minimal treatment first. (The whole thing takes a while usual)
Proper diets? nope
Therapy quoted 10 enures a day? nope
The motility med she is currently on?
nope. Probably never touched them.
Life style change? nope
Take advice from others who have GP and have been dealing with it longer? nope
Intestinal rehab? No
List goes on.
It's like a Dani version of pancreatic cancer girl

Updated screencap taken just now.
Lynn Voss claimed to have been taking care of Colt, as did the person who posted the hospital pics to Janaye's Instagram.
Within hours of my posting that people were talking about her suicide attempt in comments on Janaye's most recent Youtube video she deleted all of them. A few of the comments were directing people to look at Dom's Instagram posts for evidence that Janaye had faked her suicide attempt.
However, she did not delete the comment posted by Lynn Voss which makes me think that she is not reading here.

No. 441356
>>441330>>441335I don't think she was infusing on the plane - the picture with the backpack on is taken in a home. The commenter questioned the fact that Autumn was apparently able to bring the saline on the plane.
She already had a backpack that she made for one of the first times she had saline at home via IV - the infusion was only supposed to last 2 hours and seeing as she spends a lot of time at home doing nothing, you think she would be able to handle a 2-hr infusion. But of course it doesn't count unless everyone knows so she made a crazy backpack with caribeaners on the straps to hold the iv tubing and went out. And pretty much started infusions over days not hours right after that.
Interestingly - the port is not exposed during the engagement party her family threw her and her fiancee - the family hasn't taken well to her over dramatic medical drama (they bugged her about the wheelchair) so its probably not in her best interest to show it off them. While the fiancee probably puts up with the medical drama to some extent I am betting that if Autumn wants to keep the relationship going she can't ruin all their fun/special times with silly medical drama.
No. 441364
>>441358She can probably get away with some of it with her family - like casually exposing her port and infusing around the house. If she had to go to the ER to get saline, I doubt that would go over well. She certainly can't hijack a special occasion that is supposed to be about her and her fiancee and make it all about her and her medical drama. (Of note - she has claimed she can't wear compression garments because she overheats yet on the plan she is wearing a beanie and inside the house she is wearing a very thick scarf - yes its cold in NY but from the pictures that isn't a house where they would be skimping on the heat. The fact is she never even considered compression garments - if she did we know she would have shown them off).
It also looks like a lot of the medical drama started after she started college. She used the medical drama to say that she wanted to stay in school but couldn't because she was too sick. I am guessing that she was struggling at college (either with grades and/or just fitting in) and needed an excuse to get out. Her engagement party would be about an accomplishment and its probably preferable to keep the attention on wedding plans and whatnot instead of bringing attention to medical drama and the fact that she dropped out of school and doesn't have a job.

I wouldn't worry too much about the service dog munchies, the community is very self-policing. Both SDP and SDC have been shitlisted for their behavior. When a handler is shitlisted like this for drama or unethical/illegal handling they get removed from most of the major online communities so they can't continue asking advice to fake their SDs or conditions.

seems to be common among munchies for families to call them drama queens… wonder why
No. 441757
>>441748Probably because these munchies make everything about them at the expense of everyone else around them. They rarely ever seem to thank anyone for their help or apologize for the inconvenience they cause.
Autumns family gave her grief about the wheelchair - probably because she went out and bought a wheelchair and then either expected other people to push her around or complained about how hard it was to be in the wheelchair.
I am assuming the person referenced in this post in Dom. I don't know much about her but she seems like she goes out of her way to cause and/or find drama. Her mom probably doesn't mind the dog as much as the fact that it seems like Dom freaks out and causes a scene if someone even just glances at her dog. If they used to shoot weddings together its understandable to want to know if they will be able to do the job without the dog (as a professional you would probably want to disclose that you would be bringing a SD with you). Her husbands family probably doesn't feel comfortable questioning her. And it is more likely that her family is tired of the drama that she causes unnecessarily about the dog (especially since she is likely a sick when its convenient for me type of gal so they see her be perfectly fine when she wants) and not so much about the dog itself.
In general, people with true disabilities or illnesses try to decrease the inconvenience they cause to others or at least acknowledge the impact their illness/disability has on others. They usually try to be independent when possible and are pleasant/nice to someone when they need help. Munchies feel like they are entitled to all the attention and help they want and forget about the impact it has on everyone else around them.

>>441886You must be new to Dominique/SDP.
I am the service dog anon and I can say that 99.9% of fake service dogs are "alert dogs." This is due to the fact that no one can easily dispute if their dog alerts, it's easy to fake. POTS alert has never been proven scientifically. Anxiety alert has only been proven in certain cases where cortisol is involved in their attacks. It is extremely rare to have the body chemistry a dog could detect, combined with a dog that can detect it, and also have the dog care enough to naturally alert to the behavior. It is probably less than .0001% of cases, yet half of the teams in these pages claim alerts and no one wants to point it out in case they are discriminating against a legit team.
So, the moment someone says "alert" with service dog, unless it's diabetic alert which is tried and true, that should raise an eyebrow.

If she was in actual pain she'd be crying and whining and screaming for someone to fix it like the useless entitled man-child she is.
It's just easy to put on a brave face when you're not actually in pain, and I feel like they're trying to make actual disabled or in pain people look bad because those people genuinely don't have the energy to be smiling and taking selfies.

>>442398>>442401For someone who is apparently so concerned about service dog etiquette and gets mad when someone even looks at her SD I am surprised she would lightly put it out there that she got a ESA letter for her cat since ESA seem to be making things a lot harder for people with SD.
The only reason I see to make a cat an ESA (even though she already has a dog who is supposed to help with her emotional needs and more) is if they moved into a place that wouldn't allow the cat. However, if that is the case - just state it. Say you got the cat made an ESA so that it could continue to live with you after you moved because it brings you comfort.
No. 442453
>>442401This needs to be reported to her local HUD and/or landlord. Why would she need an ESA when she has an SD that has DPT on their task list? Not only is Max there for her emotional support, but he does a task directly mitigating her PTSD.
It is also illegal to bring the assistance animal on the property before requesting the accommodation to have it. I so hope she does that.

No. 442494
>>442486It seems like since the dog is a service dog she didn't need permission but in order to bring the cat too she needed permission - which seems a bit silly since if they are going to already allow one animal they might as well want another (could be that the landlord doesn't really want them there in the first place and is looking for a reason not to rent to them - I wouldn't want to risk having someone who is so clearly attention/lawsuit seeking living on my property where she could try to blame me for a variety of things). Hell she could be trying to get documentation to threaten to sue a landlord for discrimination if they don't rent to her (I don't follow her so I don't know about her living situation - is she moving/has she moved recently)
Showing the letter is more of just a look at me I am so special that I need multiple animals for support. I don't think she intends to bring the cat everywhere with her. People try to pass their regular pet dogs as service/support animals but it is much hard to take your cat places (other than an airplane) claiming you need it for support.
As
>>442469 stated - having an ESA in the home doesn't really cause an issue for anyone - other than maybe a landlord who doesn't want pets in the rental. She must be aware of the issue that ESAs raise in public but feels justified flaunting her ESA letter since she doesn't intend to bring it out of the house.

>>442510A little further digging reveals that the brother's diagnosis came around the same time as Autumn's medical adventure - there is a chance that it happened afterwards so it may not have been the
trigger but I wouldn't be surprised if it led the the escalation.
The family member seems very supportive of Autumn expressing concern about her having to drop out of college due to an unknown chronic illness. The family member later goes on to say that she has struggled with Autumn assuming that she had certain diagnoses before they were given (and mentioned doubts when Autumn had her drive her to the ER for a treatment she thought she needed that the family member didn't think she did) - the person seems to have worked at coming to peace with believing/supporting her. They later mention EDS and POTS (although notably after Autumn moved away - so likely stopped attending doctors appointments and potentially doesn't know that several of her claimed diagnoses are not official).
Autumn seems to have a very supportive family and one that would certainly support her mental health issues so its surprising that she has seemed to go down the "I need there to be something physically wrong with me" path.
Not sure exactly what the "event" is yet other than it seems like it is the first time in a while that she has been with all her siblings/parent.

>>442608I've noticed this, especially as the only full-blown Munchie I know in real life is an only child too. Her mother actually started it with Munchausens by Proxy, then the daughter started to believe she really was ill what with constantly being told it and having to go on weird diets and eat fistfuls of holistic medicine every morning, and had unexplained and vague incurable illnesses like ME and Chronic Lyme through adolescence. In her late teens when she became more independent she realised the benefit of an illness you could switch on and off and became a full blown Munchie herself - wheelchairs, masks, flying all over Europe for weird unproven medical treatments, fake seizures in the middle of exams she bothered to turn up for.
I don't doubt many of these parents with only children have a part to play in their factitious disorders.

Crutches are SO much easier and more comfortable to use once you know how to properly use them, and one of those things necessary to proper use is proper crutch height with regards to your own height.

>>442855>>442964So from what I can tell there is likely a small group/club at the school who is interested in being part of Tikkun Olam Makers - which is a bigger global organization that pairs up "makers" with people with disabilities to help them solve problems.
Autumn's mom seems to have partially come to grips with Autumn dropping out of school for "medical reasons" because Autumn has told her that she has a plan to study to help develop affordable assistive medical devices. She is probably hoping that participating in this "event" (which is what the organization calls it - although this "event" doesn't seem to be on the same scale as what usually occurs elsewhere) will motivate Autumn to actually make steps towards continuing her education (especially because she comes from an area where it is more common and almost expected to attend college post high school rather than not). I think Autumn only graduated a year or so ago from that same school so she is still probably connected to some of the students there (especially the kids that were likely to participate in the project). I wouldn't be surprised if she suggested it herself. Plus her mom is probably used to Autumn standing out - I doubt there are many transgender kids at the small private Jewish day school and Autumn transitioned as a teenager (with seemingly lots of support from her mom). There are also probably not a ton of kids with disabilities at the school but they are likely encouraged to do mitzvah projects so they might jump at the chance to do something. Plus it will make the school look good to appear to be helping individuals with disabilities - since few people will actually look into the legitimacy of those disabilities.
No. 443145
>>443128I work at a school, and there’s a group that helps kids with disabilities, however, it’s helping the kids with moderate to severe intellectual disabilities. There are kids at the school with health problems and physical disabilities, but they don’t want to be part of that, because they want to be seen as the same as their peers, not singled out for being sick or disabled or different in any way. It’s pretty telling how not disabled autumn is just by how desperately she’s trying to draw attention to her so-called “disabilities” and “illnesses”. It’s totally against the biological programming of a human, as we’re a social species. At the biological level, no individual wants to be too different or weak or sick, because those are the ones that get pushed to the outside or isolated, which is bad for survival. If someone wants to be sick, there’s for sure something psychologically fucked.
No. 443163
>>443145At least the difference is that individuals with disabilities/illnesses that do tend to participate in this sort of project typically do so in order to allow them to blend in more/participate in activities they might not be able to otherwise. It might involve getting help making a specific device that will allow them to participate in a sport/hobby that they want to do. Or get a group of students to try to help build/design something at a cheaper cost than trying to go the official route (the main organization that is supposedly connected with Autumn's "event" has projects like wheelchair lifts, communication devices, prosthetics - all things that can be very expensive through official companies but might be able to be made cheaper/more personalized by a motivated group of individuals).
The difference between Autumn and normal people with disabilities is that Autumn wanted her adaptations to make her stand out - hence adding LED lights (to crutches she rarely seems to use - although I temporarily expect to see them more now that they are shiny). She didn't really show off the other adaptations which may be mildly more practical (but really not for someone who doesn't need crutches to begin with). The general population of individual with disabilities who do seek out this type of assistance tend to do so to help them "blend in" more.

Speaking of Shannon. kek, the munchies are all freaking out that they won’t get their precious saline.
I think it’s super telling who the doctors think are munchies or who they think are playing it up since these are the people getting denied. Short blog because it’s related: I know multiple people (myself included) who were told despite the shortage, treatment will continue even if the hospitals / infusion centers had to purchase from a different provider. Those who legit need saline will change to a bigger size (the shortage has primarily affected 500mL bags) or the hospital will find an alternative solution (pun intended).

The fact that the munchies are the ones suffering from the shortage makes me think that their doctors KNOW they're faking, which is why they're being denied and not many of those really suffering from illnesses. Which brings up another question…If the doctor is having doubts about their patient, why continue with the saline treatment? Why continue to waste supplies on those people?

Not 100% sure she is a munchie. Quick search (I was trying to find out how old she is - looks like she is 19) revealed that this is her second IG where she only talks about medical stuff. Her other IG is that of a typical teen - it has 2 pictures that seem to be medical related but other than that is mostly normal teen things and doesn't have any diagnoses listed in the bio. Quite frankly she seems like a teen dealing with some medical issues (although I always find vaccine-injured suspicious) and has turned to the internet for support because she tends to not talk about it with friends. Hopefully she doesn't fall down the spoonie hole.

I think that’s very telling for a lot of these munchies / POTS wannabes. Obviously some people with POTS require it (usually with accompanying hypovolemia), but it seems like many of these doctors are writing the scripts to get the patients off their backs (saline itself is relatively harmless). It’s not surprising that many of our talked about munchies have been denied saline when there is clear evidence that those who need it will still get it.

>>444516AFAIK there is still discussion going on wether osteopenia in (h)EDS is linked to the connective tissue defect, or if it occurs because patients tend to do less weight baring.
But it doesn't matter anyhow: as long as she's not diagnosed with osteopenia, there is no discussion to have. And she doesn't have EDS, either. Not (properly) diagnosed, in any case.
>>444498Not more weird or creepy than hypermobileguy.. by which I mean: Yes, it is creepy and weird. I know adult in real life who was looking for some kind of doll or bear like that.. for their KID. And that is the only non-creepy reason I can think of that
adults would get something like that. Even a 'normal' stuffed animal becomes weird for adults as soon as they take it with them to the hospital and stuff. But this takes it a whole lot further. I find it very creepy if adults somehow feel better about their disability/medical device because they have a bear/doll that has the same thing. It's almost like it's a type of MBP for some persons, but of course less severe because the bear is not suffering. But the mindset of the adult seems to be a bit similar to when they make their child sick and I do not have words for just how creepy I think it is. I get knots in my stomach whenever I see an adult attention whoring by proxy with a stuffed animal that has medical devices shoved into them.
Also.. how is it that she is in hospital so often for a somatoform disorder? Normally doctors and therapists would like their patients to avoid hospital admissions as much as possible and they'll be very careful as to not confirm in any way, shape or form that your issue is anything other than psychological. Treating those patients like their problem is medical will not only fail to help them, it often will make things worse and make it more difficult for a patient to take responsibility for their own healing process.

For her, she's stated before that her asthma is due in part to foods she is allergic to, which she still eats and has allergic reactions to, and due to her somatic issues. So she's an odd duck.

triggering anaphylaxis I don't think every asthma attack has been

I think it's good to have the right information about a person. I also think it's good not to accuse someone of things they don't do, certainly if the right information is out there. So as far as I'm concerned your information is quite welcome here and you don't have to stop just because you happen to know a thing or two about her real problems.

No. 444590
>>444582I don't really know what to think.
I believe the asthma is "real", my reasoning behind that is related to the stays in intensive care, the nebuliser at home (you can buy nebulisers online but in the UK you don't just get handed out the medication to go in it), she's under a consultant who looks after difficult to manage asthma patients and also she's in the past posted letters from her psychiatrist which clearly showed her respiratory consultant agreed with the diagnosis and isn't disputing it.
I also believe the allergies and anaphylaxis are real as she carries adrenaline pens which you struggle to get here if you've not had a severe reaction, she's spent time in intensive care because of reactions and also there seems to be letters backing up the diagnosis of both allergies and anaphylaxis.
The seizures I believe exist but do agree with her that they're psychosomatic seizures. I think that in some ways she took a big step in admitting that her diagnosis was changed from epilepsy to non-epileptic seizures, that's something that makes me feel like she doesn't have munchausen syndrome (I'm not saying she doesn't belong here I just feel that someone with munchausen syndrome would milk an epilepsy diagnosis and wouldn't admit to the change in diagnosis surely?)
In some ways I think it's big of her to admit that her vomiting is psychosomatic. It's hard for me to grasp as I will admit I don't loads about somatic symptoms but what I do know is that people without healthcare backgrounds can often confuse them with the person having munchausen syndrome and lying about the symptoms. I think when she says her symptoms are "real" what she probably means (speculation here) is that her seizures are happening (I've never had seizures but I can guess they're distressing no matter the cause of them) and the vomiting seems real to in the sense that it is actually happening but to what degree I can't comment as I'm not seeing it. I do believe that what she has is somatic symptoms rather than a factitious disorder as surely someone would try to pull munchie crap and claim that it's gastroparesis or that she has intestinal dismotility or something along those lines? I don't know if it's just my opinion of if anyone else thinks that but thought I'd just comment my thoughts.

>>444590I do agree that it's big of her to admit that her symptoms are psychogenic. And when I first read about her, that's what I thought of her, mostly. But she seems to milk the tube very, very thoroughly. She did pageants with the tube in even though she placed the tube herself (and I
think she does only night feeds??) so she could very easily have removed it for the occasion and put it back that night. It also seems like she doesn't do anything to work towards getting rid of the tube. It seems that her not vomiting the tube feeds is mainly because of how the tube 'fools' her brain into thinking she is not eating, as she says she cannot use the same feeds orally. When that is the case, symptoms tend to resolve quite soon after it is made clear to the patient that this is what is happening. Sometimes even without further psychological treatment (although that
may lead to a 'replacement symptom' in some cases). I find it odd that she is so reliant on that tube, because she
knows that it's not the tube itself that makes her not vomit her tube feeds.
So.. I'm not sure. There is such a thing as psychological factitious disorder and it's actually not uncommon for a patient to accept a diagnosis of somatoform disorder when they actually have factitious disorder. They know that factitious disorder means they know what they are doing, so somatoform/somatisation disorder is a 'safe' alternative that still explains why their symptoms don't make sence medically, but means they don't have to come clean about lying/exaggerating/producing their symptoms. Because a somatoform disorder means they are really having these symptoms and they cannot help it. Some doctors use this diagnosis as an alternative as well: they know that certainly for adults it is very rare to admit to factitious disorder so they tell them they have somatoform disorder. This is a diagnosis they'll accept more easily, thus making it possible for them to be treated psychologically for any onderlying pathology.
So while I do agree that it could have been much worse and that she is at least honest about her symptoms not having a medical cause, that doesn't mean that factitious disorder is completely off the table. When I saw pictures that showed she used to be quite heavy I started to suspect that she is using her psychosomatic vomiting to keep her weight low(er). So it could even be malingering (because there's secondairy gain) or an eating disorder she is hiding. I don't think those are the most likely diagnoses, but we can't really know, of course.
No. 444614
>>444601The thing about Nicole is that she's been around these threads for about 5-8 threads, and a lot of people new to the threads and Nicole in particular don't know her history.
Initially she was entirely adamant against any of her issues being psychosomatic or factitious. She spent several threads crying on her insta about her super sever her totally real symptoms were. Then gradually, as of a few threads ago she began admitting the doctors were saying her seizures, her "hallucinations", and even parts of her asthma, was due to somatizing mental stress. She admitted her care team had reccommended she start attending weekly on-on-one therapy sessions.
However, Nicole shortly began missing appointments in favor of her somatic vomiting episodes and getting admitted to the ER for getting treated for the "symptoms" of the somatic vomiting. Of course, the consensus on the boards here was that she should attend therapy to get to the root of her somatic issues, which should correct or at least alleviate her problems.
Then Nicole made her account private, and more or less dropped out of discussion for a thread or two. Now she's back, hoping most people have forgotten what she was like before.
I really encourage new people to go back and read the previous threads, they're both entertaining, but also provide a lot of perspective about the patience and persistence many of these whackjob munchies have.
No. 444623
>>444614I do know the history, I knew Nicole before she made an Instagram account as we were in the same Facebook support group, same as how I'm aware of things about Luke as it was the same support group. I knew her before the psychosomatic symptoms started and when her issues were her "real" conditions, asthma, allergies and anaphylaxis. Nicole showed neurologist letters amongst other things that showed that she was on an anti-epileptic, that staff had witnessed her seizures in the hospital and also that the general impression was epilepsy. Her seizures died down and a while later she started having seizures again and she was referred back to her neurologist who then changed the original diagnosis he'd given her to non-epileptic seizures, Nicole admitted when this happened. The hallucinations she suffers again were witnessed by medical staff and that was confirmed and were thought to be dissociative episodes, the result of extreme stress going on relating to everything else, when this diagnosis was given again this was admitted and it wasn't played off as something else. The vomiting when it was started was diagnosed as cyclic vomiting syndrome. Later potential diagnoses were autoimmune conditions, they found she was adrenal insufficient due to the countless steroids she was on for asthma and anaphylaxis and they questioned if that was the cause for the vomiting. It then changed to them questioning a motility disorder and again, Nicole was posting doctors letters in Facebook groups to back up everything she was claiming. When she was diagnosed as psychosomatic it took a while to admit it which can be common when given other diagnoses. I've read a bit about psychogenic seizures and if the person carried an original diagnosis of epilepsy and it's changed it can take a while to adjust to this. Nicole has seemingly accepted the diagnosis and doesn't appear to be disputing what has been said. Like I said a few comments back I don't believe she has munchausen syndrome but that doesn't mean I don't feel she shouldn't be posted here as I agree she does make a drama out of things and there are some odd things like the feeding tube being in for a beauty pageant? I don't agree with it but in a lot of ways she's a better person than others mentioned here as at least she's not trying to pass herself off as having some super rare condition or cancer or a condition that won't go away
No. 444632
>>444623It was also more or less established in previous threads that Nicole either misled or withheld information from doctors to get them to believe that the conditions she was suffering from had a biological rather than mental root cause.
While you seem to know Nicole's history from before insta, you don't seem to have covered her activity in these threads, say from around thread 7 and 8. And yes, Nicole spent substantial time trying to convince others of her mystery condition, and how her suffering was so special and different from others.
Trust me, no one here is on a personal vendetta against Nicole. However, a lot of her previous posts, many of which she has deleted in order to curate her favorable vulnerable spoonie image, were very munchie, inaccurate when it came to having the diseases she claimed, and overall in it for the attention.
Also sage your shit, because you defending her isn't adding to the content of the thread. Tbh we don't give a shit if you think your interpretation of Nicole is the better one; plenty of us on here came to the conclusion she's a malingering asshole who would rather score pitbux than get better, and it's a trend she continues.
If you don't agree with that, you're welcome to stop frequenting the thread, because in-fighting over whether or not someone is a munchie isn't particularly productive.
No. 444643
>>444638Not the person you're referring to, but it seems you're either one of Nicole's flying monkeys (she had quite a few during her heyday as munchie queen in our lineup), or Nicole herself. Actually Nicole took more or less the same tone, sort of a sad kicked puppy dog tone while asking why we weren't believing her?
We don't believe her because she's sucking medical resources from people who actually need them, and contributing to the massive overwork doctors experience due to these munchies' unreasonable demand for constant attention.
Look– bringing up old stories from the FB days isn't going to convince us of Nicole's legitimacy. She know she's not. We've been convinced of it many threads ago. Again, I invite you to go back up to the top of the page, follow the "Previous thread" links, and read up on the shenanigans she's pulled that we archived, when she had deleted them.

Autumn, if you are still reading here: find a good mental health professional who specializes in either factitious disorder or personality disorders and try to find ways to deal with your need for attention and your need to be sick.

Doesn't matter how bleh we may feel, the dog still needs a good long walk every day. There's no opt-out. But then I guess a lot if these aren't in any way official SDs so there's no oversight from a governing body.
I think it's my biggest beef with these fucknuts. Not only for dragging an animal in to their stupid drama (especially those who expect the dog to carry their weight when they feel a munchie-fit oncoming) but because they muddy the waters for real SDs and their owners.
Finally, I'm convinced there's an inverse ratio between how disabled the owner actually is and the amount of writing splattered all over the dog. If it's wearing the equivalent of "War and Peace," it's just your dog. Your very ordinary, not highly trained, not actually doing anything, dog.

>>448053A lot of conditions with known causes tend to start presenting issues with the onset of puberty and sudden growth - I have EDS and this is when my first dislocations occured and when I needed mitral valve repair.
It is also when stress increases massively in terms of school, exams etc. as well as social pressures PLUS all the brain changes during the teens to early twenties mean that some conditions that are psychological in origin/ unknown causes such as CFS are going to come about.
This happened before HPV was a thing. I got the HPV in my late teens not my early teens. Growing up I still knew 1 person with CFS that left them bedbound aged 11-14, and a fairly large number of people with psych problems exacerbated by intense pressure from our school (anorexia, self harm etc).
I don't think there has been a drastic rise in the number of people with unexplained/ somatic illnesses following the widespread use of HPV. Given almost every girl is getting this vaccine you'd expect a huge spike from previous levels of childhood CFS/ somatic illnesses. Statistically that just isn't bearing out.

>>448080Do you have info we don't have? Because I think this one is real. I've watched her recent blogs (not the most recent, though) and it all seems to fit. She showed her appointment card with oncology, etc.
I was quite sceptical at first, mainly because they told her first is was benign, but when I watched the other vlogs I slowly but surely became convinced that she does indeed have cancer. If she was lying aobut this, it would have to be a quite elaborate scam and her husband would have to be in on it. I know things like that
happen, but I don't think that is the case here.
She does however, milk it for all it's worth. She is absolutely loving it. She just struck munchie gold, and she knows it full well. I am sure that a part of her also is scared that she actually has cancer now, but an even bigger part of her is smirking and using hashtags like #cancerwarrior from the first day she got her diagnosis.
As to her feeds.. she was running them at a ridiculously low rate (35 ml/h) which mostly tells us that even if she had GP, she should have been very able to keep her weight stable with shakes or even just a normal GP diet. But the fact that she can't run them at a higher rate
right now seems to be due to pancreatitis which to me seems legit (though she is
also milking that, of course). She could very well exaggerate though, because looking at her posts she definitely seems not to be in the amount of pain she is claiming.
I'm not saying she
isn't full of it, just that what is happening to her
right now seems to be based on reality - though it might be only loosely based on it, that I do not know.

>>448386Natasha just seems suspicious.
She is 20 - even if she wasn't sick, most people would have given up the gymnastics dream by now. I watched a couple of her gymnastics competition videos and while she is a way better gymnast than me (because I am not a gymnast) she is no superstar. I don't know how British gymnastics work but if she was in the US she would have stopped competing at 18 because she isn't at a true elite level and probably not even college gymnastics material. Seems more like she switched to disability gymnastics at 18/19 years old because she realized it was the only way she could continue competing. By competing in the disability category she is also significantly cutting down on the number of competitors - she is competing about 5-7 other gymnasts instead of 25+
(One of the girls she seems to regularly compete against is 16 and was born missing one of her hands - her floor routine is the only thing I have seen but it is significantly more impressive).
I suspect she shaves her head because it gains her pity points - not only in general public but especially on the competition platform. She has a leotard that screams "i'm sick" with a heart rhythm pattern, awareness ribbon, etc. Add in the shaved head, some dramatic music, and choreography that includes pretending to pray and it screams to the judges "remember I am sick" because otherwise she would look like an adult who is unwilling to give up on an unrealistic dream.
I might feel more sympathy if she was younger and getting sick stopped her from doing what she loved to do with her friends (especially if she really was on an elite gymnastics career path) but at 20 the majority of people who competed as gymnasts when they were teenagers have moved on. You weren't Olympic or college material so move on. (Does she go to school or have a job - that would seem to be a better use of her time).

She has the tools towards the closest thing to a cure currently, and she is basically throwing it away.
Keep in mind Court has said that her insurance doesn't cover a ton of this and her family had a credit card to put medical payments on. Her infusions are 180$ a week, I imagine she's paying 400$ for cromolyn (but if she is only using 1 vial day, she won't need a refill for 3 months, whereas the 4xa day folks need refills every 28 days)

Her brother had cancer (the same kind she says she has), but now has a brand new baby. So he used to get attention for his cancer, and now for the new baby. Hypothetically Audrey isn’t getting enough attention, so voila, cancer diagnosis. She could easily use her obvious eating disorder to make it look like she’s sick, and get admitted. Yeah the baby has the same middle name as her, but maybe it’s a family name and she’s making up that it’s because of her. She’s obviously mentally ill, so I wouldn’t put all that past her.

>>449141I think Mary is also OTT because she fell into the spoonie warrior inspiration hole. She seemed to have started her vlogs to give people a glimpse of what it was like to have CF and to keep people updated on her when she was temporarily living out of the country - actually probably giving decent information on what it is like to try to live abroad with a chronic illness. Being the nature of social media, view with more medical information/medical titles get significantly more views - her early vlogs with titles about medications/equipment/hospitals typically get over 20k views while the more general vlog titles got less than 6k. I think originally she tried to make her vlog more about other things - like cost saving home ideas. However, nobody is really interested in the great deals she finds at the dollar tree and in generally her day to day life is boring because she doesn't do anything. She got a taste of popularity and encouragement with the vlog because look how brave she is for living abroad with such a serious illness (especially because most people without cf don't know much about it other than it involves the lungs and people usually die fairly young). Once she got a taste of that popularity and started to feel those connections she wanted to keep it up but the best way to keep up viewership is to post lots of medical related things - and emergencies are always more interesting to viewers. So she started to focus more on every tiny medical symptom and every new device gives her more vlog content and she has become known as an inspiration. Unfortunately she really is a pretty bad example/role model. Mary is a good example of how what started out as an innocent use of social media to connect with others/provide some awareness has let to OTT behavior.

Then she starved ant purged herself into a POTS diagnosis (lots of people with ED’s are misdiagnosed, really dehydration, malnutrition, and electrolyte imbalances can look like POTS), and then a feeding tube. She obviously never needed the tube, since the first one “fell out” and she didn’t get another one until she took herself to the hospital and demanded to get admitted, and then just didn’t eat. (If she couldn’t eat, she’d have lots a ton of weight since she runs her tube at a ridiculously slow rate, but she actually looks like she’s gained, i.e. she’s eating quite a bit and lying about it). The chronic Lyme spoonies tend to be some craziest, especially when they move on to new illnesses.

On the topic of SDs, has anyone seen this chick on IG? She says she's vaccine injured, and by Gardasil no less. Claims POTS, vertigo, seizures, vision loss, mobility issues and more. She has two service dogs, a "main one" and an SDiT. She's probably gunning for an EDS dx at this point because another IG user pointed out that she "might fit the bill" for that dx, kek.

>>449228>>449197Yes - Jaquie seems a little different. I won't go into too much detail on why I think so here since she has her own thread but basically Jaquie is more munchie while Mary seems to be more OTT. I don't necessarily think that Mary is intentionally trying to cause any of her issues. Yes I think she could do a better job taking care of herself (and many have questioned whether she has an eating disorder) and I don't think she is the greatest role model out there since there are lots of people with CF who do a whole lot more than she does (like have a job). However, I don't think she is deliberately trying to make herself sick although I wonder if subconsciously she doesn't take the best care of herself because every minor medical emergency is the potential for new blog. One of the downfalls of daily vlogging is that most people's day to day life is pretty routine and boring so it becomes less interesting after a while. Clickbait titles and lots of small dramas are the only way to keep the channel alive. Increased views is almost like an incentive to keep yourself bordering on the edge of healthy vs unhealthy.
Basically I think that a lot of OTT spoonies start out with good intentions - trying to connect to others going through something similar and maybe spread a little awareness. Using hashtags to find others like you isn't necessarily a bad thing - using every hashtag in the book in hopes of gaining more followers/support and instafame is when it starts to get murky

No. 449811
I know I'm coming out of the blue here, but I was thinking back on Autumn's video where's she's speaking about her surgery.
She says she had some blood work done before starting hormones which I believe is normal, and that's when she found out she had Von Willebrand's. However, she states that her "hematologist" told her surgeon that it was okay to proceed. Does this mean she just had random blood work done and THEN got a hematologist after the VWD diagnosis? (P.S. The diagnosis itself is weird because she said she had a family history of CLOTTING. VWD is typically inherited, unless it's the rarer Acquired type which usually occurs due to things like lymph/plasma/bone marrow disorders, stuff she hasn't claimed to have- to my knowledge.)
Also, she states she didn't heal after her surgery because of her EDS, but magically healed EXTREMELY fast after her port surgery with no complications. So either she has adjustable EDS, her surgeon just botched it, she fucked with her own healing to make herself sick, or she's lying.
Sidenote, I can't fucking stand her rolling back and forth in that wheelchair. When you're doing something like presenting, you usually put the damn parking breaks on.
This may have been said before, but the inconsistencies are just SO juicy!

I've been at that point where I could (and actually had to) wear kids clothes. I was literally in tears for feeling like an overgrown 13 year old. And she is sitting there saying she LOVES it?? Seriously, what the actual
fuck is wrong with her?
On the dysautonomia part: she still pronounces it like that. If you're going to claim a diagnosis, at least learn how to pronounce it. As she is a chronic lymie and has found some quack who got her a port I assume she has been on antibiotics for months or maybe even years, but she also can't say antibiotics. Erm.. OK?

>>450789I don't exactly know why, but somehow I feel sorry for her. If she'd just found a doctor who would have connected the dots and gave her the RIGHT kind of help, not only could she avoid getting holes poked into her, but maybe she wouldn't feel the need to, either. I'm not sure why I feel this way about her. Maybe it's because it's so bloody obvious she doesn't need a tube and the only reason why her stomach is a bit slow with solids is because she had/has an eating disorder. If she'd just start eating normally, maybe slowly building up from fluids if she really is nauseous, her stomach would start working normally.
Still, I don't get it. As I understand it, the doctors she sees are actual motility specialists, right? So WHY don't they see what's happening here? Anyone who's stomach can move liquids doesn't need a tube, period. If need be, they can use liquid meal replacements or blended food. If they have lost too much weight, they can get an NG (G yes, not J) for a few months to gain it back. Dani has no trouble with liquids, AND has a history of an eating disorder. How difficult can it be to connect these dots?

>>448784I don’t know if anyone has noticed, but this looks suspiciously shooped. Prescriptions on medications have lines of text that all align on the left side (if not both sides). The “F” in “for” on the last line does not match up to the previous line. In the same spot and across the entire bottom line, there is pixelation of a different colour as if something else was covered. In addition, the last line of text is in a slightly different font. Not to mention it’s very atypical for doctors to accidentally spell “severe” as “sever” since there is a huge difference, especially in the medical field AND most prescriptions require the doctors to spell out the condition. Also, I’ve rarely seen “severe” used on prescriptions to describe conditions – mainly used to describe symptoms, if that….
(not a doctor, just work with insurance, so please correct me if I’m wrong about any of the above medical stuff)My guess is that she somehow got CS prescribed (GI issues?) and shooped it to support her “sever MCAS” delusion.
No. 451068
>>450917>>450939Its also because she presents a completely different picture to her doctor than she does to social media. On social media its obvious she wants the tube and constantly was posting about her super severe anorexic thoughts. But she has previously had doctors dismiss her GI concerns due to her history of anorexia so I think she learned to downplay it this time around. I am sure when she sees the temple doctor she stresses that she has been in anorexia recovery for over two years (if she mentions it at all) so that it seems like symptoms that occurred afterwards weren't necessarily related. And while we know that she hasn't stuck to a GP friendly diet, I would bet that she tells her doctor otherwise. While her test results didn't show a problem with liquids she is probably reporting that she can't keep them down. If she was told she would get a tube if she kept losing weight I wouldn't be surprised if she is engaging in anorexic behaviors again to make it a reality.
What I don't understand is why a doctor is going straight to a surgically placed tube instead of going the nasal-tube route. Why not try the less permanent version first to see if it works before resorting to surgery. (The only thing I can think of is that she does have pretty obvious reflux and an NG/NJ tube would prevent her lower esophageal sphincter from completely closing and could make the reflux worse as its one of the reasons why long-term NG tube placement isn't recommended)

Sure it's treatable. Unless you die of course; still no treatment for death.
>>452429Guess they're still discussing it. Of course she got comments from various people saying they've been on TPN for x amount of time now and it's scary but it has improved their quality of life SO much. I guess if she wasn't a munchie comments like that could be helpful. However she's not scared of TPN like normal people would be.
I'm wondering though: if she wasn't a munchie, would TPN be indicated in this case? If you forget who she is? Let's just say patient A has a malignant but slow growing tumor and needs an operation. Pt has a GJ tube but isn't tolerating her feeds for which no clear cause can be found. She already has a central line. I'm not a doctor, but I could see them starting her on TPN just for a few weeks so she can have surgery. If it's at all possible of course it should be combined with tube feeds at a rate she can tolerate. Would that be done at all? Is it too risky and if so, why? I know sometimes after major (abdominal) surgery TPN is given for a short amount of time until patients can eat again, so it seems to me this situation could potentially be one in which TPN was used. The biggest risk I see apart from the risks inherent to TPN - risks associated with the line (which she already has) plus the fact that it's very hard on the liver (which is not too bad I guess if it's short term only) - is that there is no clear cause for her not tolerating her feeds, so if no cause if found it could prove difficult to wean her off and start her on full tube feeds again. Then we are looking at long-term TPN and the risks of course increase greatly.
I'm just saying.. of course Aubrey is Aubrey and she's been angling for this for a long time. Most patients don't even know what TPN is and would at the very least try anything to get their feeds into their body. And she already didn't need that tube in the first place. But if you don't know that and would take her symptoms at face value, is TPN still bad medicine in this specific case?

No. 452746
At least she doesn't do daily vlogs anymore. For the time being. I'm pretty sure if she actually gets TPN, there will be at least a short vlog about it.
Speaking of her vlogs.. did anyone see her most recent one? (
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jDd3A_ObE4g) The title of that vlog is "feeding tube change did not go as planned".
So naturally, I thought either something went wrong and there were complications during the tube change, or they were somehow unable to do the change due to planning issues or whatever. Nope. Everything went fine. No complications and her new tube is working fine. So what was the reason for that title? They didn't have her button in stock so they had to replace it with a normal 'dangler' tube. Yep. Poor, poor Aubrey. You'd think someone just diagnosed with cancer would have other things on their mind instead of caring which type of tube they have in their body.
though to be fair in Aubreys case this is a terrible thing to have to deal with because of course the main reason feeding tubes are so popular in the spoonie community is because those low profile buttons apparently look very cute. Now if she would swim regularly or do other sports I can imagine the long tube is a tiny bit more of a hassle. I could even imagine if she did night feeds only that it would bother her just a little bit that she had to walk around all day with that tube taped onto her belly. But even then I wouldn't understand why she finds it necessairy to complain about it in her vlog and even make the title "feeding tube change did not go as planned". It went exactly as planned, and she has a working tube now that doesn't leak. It makes literally NO difference to her if she has a button with a tube connected to it 24/7 or wether she has a long feeding tube sticking out of her. She does 24-hour feeds anyway because she can only tolerate a slow rate. (Although she's not even trying now - even 25ml over 24h is a LOT better then nothing - but of course she knew that she might get TPN if she somehow didn't tolerate them, so why not just go straight to her goal, right?) So
when does she even notice the difference between the long tube and her button? O right, when she takes a shower she has a longer tube in her belly instead of a shorter one. Well, I'm sure that makes her life SO much harder than it already is. Poor, poor Aubrey.

Or the baby's parents have no clue that this bathroom floor lying, tubie pad next to toilet wearing woman could be spreading a plethora of germs to their fragile infant.
>>453751This makes me question not only Aubrey, but her family. If she had flu like symptoms why on earth would she think to go near a baby? Does she want the baby to end up "sick like her"?
Probably not because then the baby would get all the attention.
Another interesting thought has occurred to me though:
With all these babies being born I'm sure Aubrey has tons of people asking her when she'll have kids. I'll bet all of this hospital nonsense is to say "owo i'm too sick to have kids" or she's just extremely narcissistic and doesn't want the attention taken off of her for one second.

And Aubrey's husband went to work like the same day as her "diagnosis."
That said, if it was my newborn, I still wouldn't let her and her open wounds near my baby just in case.

This is exactly what it's about for these cows - getting attention and concern from those they care about. To Aubrey, she probably doesn't feel that she can get it any other way. Her husband is paying attention to her, so this is a win in her book. Missing Christmas, the birth of her niece/nephew, and isolating herself from her family are all worth it now.

Someone is missing the attention.
Love the tags again.
You'd think for someone who complains about being talked bad about online would know better than to ask the super real IG Drs and nurses..i thought she learned her lesson because she had stopped tagging for help like that for a while. I guess she just can't stomach not having much attention lately.
It's funny she didn't post about her last
appt..she posted that it was coming up before hand but that was it..she didn't make a thing out of it like she has for all the other appts..you know her dad driving her, the fact she has to "travel so far" etc. It's especially odd since she was so excited to talk about a tube and she was going down hill so much those few days then it just goes away (Dani style) Then she just mentions the surgery consult like it's nothing in a random post. At least she is mixing up her attention seeking I guess?
She doesn't seem to understand that it is just a consult. She comes across like she thinks just because she has a consults she gets the surgery.
Gastric stim is controversial. There's no clear way it'll help someone and effects everyone differently. The biggest correlation they have from the studies is the nausea relief and given that's her main complaint and somehow none of the many nausea meds she is on work well for her surgery would be worth it just for the relief.
If that nausea was accurate /real.
But conventional nausea meds and the large variety of forms of them are also a better alternative to surgery. It doesn't make sense.
She said they were doing another GES in January. That surgeon isn't doing anything until he gets those results along with some other testing (which is routine anyway)
They don't tend to recommend a pacer to a patient with an ED, or ED history (at least it used to be that way)
There are several other key issues that would hinder anyone's qualifications for the pacer too.
It can be hard to get insurance to cover it even when someone is a perfect candidate. It's not cheap.
The research study she is in is most likely for pacers in which case coverage and qualifications may be different. I believe temple is one of the clinics that offer an external pacer to try before the surgery..its got just as much research going on so looking at it from this angle Danis pieces add up.
But that's about the only pieces adding up.
Mild weight loss (notice she's not posting body pictures and very limited view face pictures?) is not an indicator for a jtube.
She's never had surgery and is just way to excited about finally getting her toys (or she thinks) I don't think she knows how this works!
Her agenda seems to be-surgery consult
Surgery that day

She is not in a research study for the gastric stimulator. I'm fairly certain I'm in the same study as her but in a different location. The study is actually to only collect information from people with gastroparesis or delayed gastric emptying. It does not provide treatment. I find it odd that any munchie claming gastroparesis who goes to one of these motility clinics isn't enrolled in this study because it's very easy to qualify. That tells me their emptying isn't even delayed.

Er.. I thought they couldn't do the surgery because she was so malnourished? If five days of TPN solve your problem, it was not malnourishment. I
can imagine temporary TPN for someone who really needs surgery and doesn't tolerate feeds any other way could be indicated, but five days could
never reverse malnourishment. That just doesn't make any sense.

>>453884I feel like she thinks that if she gets a jtube "miracle" She can then push for bigger and better things.
So shes constantly complaining she can't keep anything down despite detailed testing that showed she has only a mild (self insuced) gastric delay with solids and the liquids are not at all delayed and her intestines don't have any issues, yet she reports she throws up the liquids a lot and has claimed her intestines hurt..
She knows a liquid diet would work just fine and if she actually took the proper medication shed be fine with solids but she wants to be visibly sick so badly so she is just going to keep saying she's not tolerating liquids well enough to sustain until she gets a Tube. Which is funny because her lab work would show this and her lab work is always fine. It will be surprising if temple decided to place a jtube with minimal weight loss and fine bloods. They just don't do it because it's not indicated at that point. You get tubes when you get malnourished. She literally has no signs and symptoms of needing tube feeds.
She has no medical reason tube feeds won't work either but she seems to think it's a step by step program. First you get tubes and then TPN, that is just how it works of course.
I don't expect her to quit complaining about throwing up liquids and tolerating tube feeds. She will push for TPN. She has point blank asked for TPN in the past. She has begged to be put on "TPN ppn anything" in the past. Not tube feeds just tpn. I'm not sure what's worse..the fact she has begged for it over tube feeds or the fact she thinks any dr would put her on TPN before everything else.
Tpn is last resort and not handed out like candy and millions of people tolerate tube feeds just fine. Even ones who actually have intestinal issues.
It's comical. But I absolutely see all of this current drama as a cover for her bigger picture as delusional as it is.

>>454472Has Dani asked for TPN in the past? I know she has been angling for a tube for a while (and has self tubed before). I don't doubt that if she is able to get a tube she will eventually start to angle for a port/TPN because the tube isn't going to solve any of her problems - because her problems aren't really physical. The tube will help her look sick but it isn't going to help her magically form or repair relationships. But instead of working on her mental health issues and finding ways to make connections with other people (getting out of the house will help) she will probably think that she just needs more medical supplies. I think the only way a tube will help her is that it might encourage her to get out of her apartment since she has something to show off.
>>454102Thats pretty sad if she spent Christmas alone when her family and claimed bf live so close to her. If you don't know what your supposed boyfriend of 14 years is doing on Christmas then you aren't in a healthy (or real) relationship. Is she still claiming they are moving in together?
I did notice that Dani's FB posts about her surgeon consult and if she should start posting YT videos again got no comments or even likes/reactions (and Dani the answer is no you shouldn't start posting YT videos again - they do you no good). Granted she never seems to usually get more than 5 reactions but still I think the lack of reaction is an answer in itself

I hate that there's no legitimate registry as much as the next person but that's how these poorly trainined dogs fly under the radar. As long as the dog is not aggressive, is potty trained, and you can answer what tasks it does (you never have to prove it to take your dog with you) when asked: voila! You have a service dog and are not the sickest of the sick! What makes it so easy is that 90% of the fake dogs are medical alert dogs and that is something that can rarely be proved.

More fine parenting from Dom and Chase. Her son is barefoot in a pet store and in contact with the animals. She drapes constrictors around his neck and has him kiss several reptiles. Animals can communicate illness-causing bacteria to people.
The video opens with them driving to the pet store. Chase is driving without his seat belt and he is filming, swinging the camera around on a selfie stick to show Liam in the back seat. Dom has a foot propped on the dashboard which is extremely dangerous in the event of an accident.

In the description Dom writes, "This was super awkward for me. Chase wanted to vlog it and Tiffany didn't mind. But for me it was almost personal and just super weird.

Chase is filming Dom and Liam wanders out of his sight in the aisle of snake enclosures which have sliding doors with Dom's back to him. She pays more attention to Max. At least Chase asks where their son is.
Dom chases after Chase and shoves the snake into his face yelling at him, "Touch it!" Chase clearly dislikes snakes. He says to the camera, "I hate this."

Likely were just trying to avoid a ticket for not wearing a seatbelt. I am no law expert but I am not sure they would really be able to make a case. Unless there was clear evidence that the seatbelt somehow broke it would be more likely that if she was actually wearing it that it wasn't pushed in all the way/properly fastened which would be user error not equipment error.

So basically what we're gonna do is have to go talk to a lawyer and have the lawyer handle everything with the insurance companies because insurance companies, if you don't have a lawyer and you just make a deal with them, but they're gonna give you the lowest amount that they can. They're not gonna give you, you know, like, the full amount that they cover. And so we're gonna have to get a lawyer, and it's essentially like suing the insurance companies, but it makes sure that you get everything that insurance companies, like, you know, say that you only get in a wreck, you know, things like that. So um, if we were just to go through, you know, be like, "Okay, insurance company, here's their insurance, handle it." If we were to do that we wouldn't get the rest of it. Like they cover, you know, like, the pain and suffering, you get money for, like, the pain and suffering. And then, you know, of course the medical bills and, you know, the car repair. But the lawyer will be able to make sure that, you know, hopefully the car will be fixed. … Going through a lawyer though you'll get, you get more money going through a lawyer than just settling with insurance companies.

Also, if your joints frequently dislocate, surely you'd learn not to roll around in bed, so there should be virtually no risk of him rolling out of bed.

>>454924>>454968Dani trying to do the same.
It's not convincing anyone that her Drs told her she needs a pacer and tube after all she's done for years is express how badly she wants (I mean needs) a feeding tube..she bombarded her local GI with tube stuff and her group FB posts are almost always about feeding tubes. She has self tubed and probably still does. I wish she would show up at temple with a tube in like she did with Her local dr.. Her FB posts are different than her IG posts because she thinks she will get less people calling her out, like IG is the only source people call her out on.
(These aren't exact quotes)
On FB she will ask how to get a tube, How to ask her dr for a tube, how to convince them, etc. A lot of fishing
On IG she says I'm not asking for a tube, I'm going to let the Dr make that decision. I'm just going to ask what my next option is and if it's a tube so be it.
We know she brought up a feeding tube and talked about how bad she needs one each appt.
Her dr didn't look at her and her medical info and say
"you have severe GP and loosing so much weight, at least 5 pounds. All your lab work indicates you are healthy. Not even mildly malnourished. You are on a complete liquid diet but you are throwing it up even though your testing for that was normal fast. None of your behaviors such as diet pills laxatives exercising binge/purging hard to digest solid foods over medicated/unneeded medications are not causing this super serious delay you have. Those 5 pounds and perfect lab work is worrisome. I'm going to send you to a surgeon to place a feeding tube so you won't die from this serious out of hand manipulated illness."
I will not be surprised that when the surgery consult doesn't go her way and they decide against a tube for obvious reasons she won't say anything. She will just say they decided agaisnt the pacer and are going to stuck with an NJ for a while. Meaning she's going to get crushed and self tube with an NG and just say it's an NJ they placed.
This will be fun because when you get put on tube feeds a lot happens and she doesn't have the smarts and money to pull it off.

I wonder if these fucks were born male and went to business school if they'd end up being hedge fund traders- there's a certain level of psychopathy to do what these munchies do and it reminds me of the traders who don't give a shit who they step on as long as they get their fix- in their case $ and power, in a munchie's case recognition and, clearly for enough, $ too, even though it comes at the expense of others either too kind hearted or gullible to be skeptical of their munchie tales.

>>455548To be fair, he never says that it is because he needs two carers helping him transfer. He writes that it is so that they can get on either side of the bed. Often home nurses will ask you to put your bed like that if you need to be bathed while lying down, especially if you cannot turn yourself around or otherwise position your body so it's easier for them to reach.
I don't know if he has that kind of care though and I also don't know if he says in
another post that he needs two carers at the same time; I'm just going on what I read here. (What he does to that teddy bear though is SO creepy imo.)
>>455649Isn't if funny how with cows one moment their doctor is an idiot and doesn't take them seriously and they say you need to advocate and do your own research when talking with doctors about your care or they are asking for advice on how to convince their docs etc., and when they get suggestions they don't like it's always "I trust my doctor" or "my care team knows what they are doing".

When you hope for sepsis but end up only having the flu eyeroll and too healthy to get saline, lol how did she even get approved for a Port, they won’t even give her saline, that straight up tells you it’s completely unnecessary, she’s like Autumn.

>>455208There's no way she's on a cancer floor. That's an all-out lie; no wonder she was so nervous and glancing at the door every three seconds to make sure a nurse didn't walk in on her tall tale. First of all, I am still highly suspicious it's not a common, benign neoendocrine tumor. Secondly, she's being treated for sepsis so why the hell would they bring her infection around dozens of highly susceptible, actually sick patients? She's not on chemotherapy and the ER visit had nothing to do with her pancreatitis or whatever, so there's zero reason for her to be on a cancer floor - she's likely in a medicine or infectious disease ward, but of course that's not special enough for miss Aubrey.
The obsession over children's clothing, blood pressure cuff, etc. is textbook ED behavior. She's not even that small kek. Certainly not even the slightest bit malnourished, at any rate. Good on at least one of the doctors for seeing through her bullshit and downvoting TPN, even though Aubrey ultimately conned her way into it.

Amanda is upset because the ER told her that nausea and vomiting weren't emergencies kek. She's headed to a "direct admit" with her specialist's hospital though, so once again if you whine enough and have insurance you can munchie your way into just about anything.

>>456396The ER was right to give her a hard time. The ER is for acute emergencies not for treatment of chronic problems.
Nausea and vomiting can be an acute problem but doesn't sound like this was the case. Malnutrition and dramatic weight loss typically don't happen overnight. She claims she has been nauseated and vomiting since she had her tube placed - which appears to have been in October and the pins and needles sensation appears to have been happening for over a week. If she was suddenly experiencing an onset of these symptoms it might warrant a visit to the ER but all these things seem to be a chronic issue that is better addressed by making an appointment with a doctor. The ER isn't the place to figure out why you haven't gained weight. Also wondering if she is going to start claiming the flu shot has caused her grave injury.
The doctor saying "you don't look sick" was likely him trying to make her see that she came to the ER for a chronic issue not an acute issue - yes she might be nauseous but clearly not on the brink of death. Her doctor telling her to go to the ER for that was probably more of an attempt to try to get someone else to deal with the problem.

Spoonielife_amanda appears to have gone to the ER basically hoping to pull a Jaquie with a kinked j-tube. Sounds like the doctor offered meds that she refused and then she got mad that he didn’t give in to her wishes and use her port and do all kinds of tests. Funny how when the doctor doesn’t give them what they want they say the doctor was belittling and ignorant but when they do get their way the doctor was the best. I bet that patient next to her didn’t think Amanda was being abused/neglected by the doctor

That’s the 4th or 5th person I’ve seen since Christmas rave about how excited they are they got an Apple Watch to track their heart rate with. Some spoonies medicalize everything, including their Christmas gifts. Not to say that’s not a valid use for an Apple Watch, but it’s annoying how they make a big deal out of it like it’s something special.

No. 456780
>>456719Not trying to WK here (isn't that what they all say), but I think it's perfectly fine for someone to take a semester off if their health is impeding their academic achievement. Obviously we don't know what kind of student she is, so she could be lazy and using her illnesses to help that, but she could also be a hard worker frustrated by the obstacles in health she's having.
I think taking leave for health is just as justifiable as taking leave for a family tragedy, etc. Who would want to waste their money in school when they can't do what is expected of them.
Again not trying to WK.
>>456705I agree she might be OTT, but I think she probably got a little over excited about having a spot in the spoonie community like so many of the younger girls do.
As for her diagnoses, who really knows about any of these spoonies. I do think she's being a little over eager about the symptoms she's been having, but not everything has to be a self fulfilling prophecy. I hope she gets the answers she needs not wants soon.

Unicorn.spoonie says she lost 20 pounds in one week. Is that even possible? From the symptoms she’s describing (being unable to eat without vomiting), there’d be more symptoms that just weight loss if it happened for months as she claimed.
From my own experience with those symptoms, she’d have low potassium and magnesium at least.
She also cannot pronounce syncope and whenever someone can’t pronounce something I’m always super suspicious of if they actually have it because wouldn’t they have heard their doctor say it?
Honestly I think she’s healthy-aside from some probable type two diabetes causing nerve pain.
Interestingly though, she was able to walk 30 minutes to and from the Y without her rollater. Guess she REALLY doesn’t need that wheelchair.
