Community Munchausen's by Internet (Malingerers, Munchies, Spoonies, etc) - Feigning Illnesses for Attention

Today, I’m thankful for munchie histrionics. Dirty bellybutton saga continues: View attachment 2751077View attachment 2751078View attachment 2751079

ETA: I believe this is the first time she’s hashtag claimed Addison’s. She must be taking notes from the other bitch we’ve been talking about! Such a mystery why munchies are so quiet and selective about some of the illnesses they claim via hashtags. Victoria claims a fuck ton of diseases like HHT, lupus, and now Addison’s, but she’s really hush hush about it. Hmm. 🤔
Can a bellybutton infection cause a UTI or vice versa? Why can't she just take d-mannose and have good hygiene rather than wasting antibiotics and increasing resistance for those who need them to live?

If you're a newborn baby with an abnormality, yes. If you're an adult in a developed nation with access to infant care, no. While there is a connection between the belly button and the bladder during development (don't ask me how all that works; IINAD), sometimes there are remnants left behind of the connection (known as a urachal abnormality). In the case of this adult woman, there shouldn't be a connection between the two sites that wasn't caught and corrected in infancy -- or we'd have assuredly heard about it at length and in hashtags.
 
Think I found one... Hanna Cormick, "the performance artist has what she describes as a "trifecta of conditions" — Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, Mast Cell Activation Syndrome and Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome", apparently her performances could kill her but this brave spoonie warrior soldiers on in a bid to destroy ableism.

Pictured here "in the performance, Cormick sits on her wheelchair in a beautiful silicone mermaid tail and top, wearing a full-face respirator mask and hooked up to an oxygen tank and IV line with saline."

It's not art but it sure as hell is a performance.

A full on fucking wheelchair mermaid outfit complete with medical accessories, oh yeah that’s definitely a munchie.
This might be the best glamour wheelchair picture I’ve seen because the absurdity of it.
They all want to see themselves as special and rare creatures so really it makes sense that someone would take it to the level of dressing like a goddamn mermaid.

The bar is getting raised for the look at me wheelchair pictures.

Just one of those "conditions" being cited as a disability is sus but all 3? Haha get the fuck outta here. Theoretically such an "afflicted" person could just carry an Epi Pen and not stand up too fast but that's no good because no one could even tell at a glance you have a "disability" and where's the fun in that? The chair is for "POTS" I guess but I can't figure out the oxygen tank, if you're having actual anaphylaxis that ain't gonna help you as much as a couple Benadryl.

Man, it really feels like the bar has dropped considerably over what could be considered "disabled" when I can't think of anything much she'd be unable to do. In all honesty literally pretending not to have legs and zipping around in a wheelchair while flopping around seems like an especially cruel mockery of tards even by the standards of this thread/site.
 
PL like mad but I know someone with legit EDS, diagnosed and treated by actual doctors. She's dislocating her hips and shoulders all the time, breaking bones easily, and in the hospital constantly. These idiots cosplaying it are amateurs.
As far as I know, EDS wouldn’t cause bones to break easily. That’s an osteogenesis imperfecta thing. You sure your friend isn’t a munchie and mixing up the condishuns she googled?

I kid, I kid (mostly)

I don't know about the bone thing, but she's legitimately fucked. Also, very hardworking, which you don't see a lot with munchies.

yeah, i'm not a med kiwi myself so i could be off base, but i'm sure several of the "usual munchie suspects" combo platters *would* be fairly debilitating for a normal person who does productive daily activities.* but when you're a chronically online white girl, sitting at home a-munchin' , no job or kids to be busy with, i can't imagine these conditions would affect you half as bad... in a world which you actually had them, anyway, a world in which none of these bitches are living in :story:

*except for POTS i have yet to understand why tf that's such an issue for these chicks, even the sexy victorian fainting is super easy to avoid...? ah well, no sense asking when it's really just the munchie need to sit on their ass and collect more hashtags and acronyms...

One wonders if Victoria is purposefully obfuscating what kind of infection this is because UTIs (kidney infection? She’s changed it up so damn much I’m not sure)=brave warrior asspats but bellybutton infection=take a bath you gross ducking amoeba.
Yeah, the narrative is really jumbled here. We started with a gross bellybutton, but then SURPRISE: UTI! However, there doesn't seem to be a reasonable causal relationship between her gross bellybutton and the UTI. Also, kidneys (of which, mind you, she has three). I'm disappointed that she's not hashtagging "triple kidney infection" again. That's a personal favorite munch moment. My idiot ass thought it meant three-in-a-row and not three kidneys. Also, why is she hashtagging renal disease? Is having a third kidney a disease? Legitimate question here. Infection != disease.
 
I think she's saying she had some kind of discomfort in her lower abdomen and because the belly button was gross she assumed it was the culprit, but it turned out to be a UTI. The belly button is an unrelated secondary issue.

At least, that's what I got out of her posts. UTIs aren't as special as a belly button infection but she'll take it since it results in antibiotics and medical attention. Any port in a storm.

Maybe the urine culture grew a super creepy, archaic bacteria that can only be found in the depths of a disgusting fucking navel and they assume she has developed a fistula? Also- I have seen some shit but never have I had a pt with an infection in the umbilical region that required a surgical consult! I’ve seen balls and sternums develop nec fasc but a fucking belly button???

But preferably a power port in the storm. A PICC, midline, or peripheral access simply will not do. Not nearly as poetic nor attention-grabby.

I like the concept, but in a horror sense. It would be fun to see in some sort of horror show, and not like that.

If you're going to be a cute medical mermaid, at least glam up your medical accessories! This isn't amateur hour.

ETA BECAUSE I DOUBLEPOSTED LIKE A FAG:

I can't believe people didn't recognize Kiley. The accusing her mom of trying to murder her thing really stuck with me.

And the whole "killing two dogs" thing, but unfortunately pet neglect and abuse is a given in this thread. :(

After pregnancy and delivery I guess a belly button abnormality is not completely unheard of.

You can see how things could get all stretched out and distorted in that area. Maybe it can happen after dramatic weight gain too?
 
There is so much to say about munchies and their expectation to have the red carpet rolled out for them at the ER, admitted straight to the suite for the most special-est, bravest sickie wickie warriors, but for now all I can muster is

HA. HA HA. THEY KNOW YOU’RE FULL OF SHIT VICKIE GO HOME

Also please note that she is crying in the picture. Yes, she is crying because she didn’t get a fast pass to a hospital admission. The munchie mindset, I swear to god, I’ll never understand.
