Bullshit. You can literally get a self-test from the pharmacy for like what 5 bucks? Even more so in Canada, I doubt they'd keep anyone from getting tested.

EDIT: she deleted her IG recently. What did you guys do?
Could you please spoiler these images next time and also maybe explain who this person is? You keep dropping these long-ass photo posts out of nowhere with no explanation. Idk why you would think someone here is messing with this cow since no one else even knows who she is or what you are talking about.

Every post of this lady is made up of a bunch of out of context non sequiturs that make me feel like I'm having a stroke. I get that you don't like her but for the love of god, are we supposed to know what she's even referring to? Even your explanation about her makes no sense.
sorry, im on my phone and the size of the images looks normal there. I'll fix it.

I'll add some context to the images too.

EDIT: I spoilered the pics and added context. I will be mindful of that in the future.

@Alamo basement dweller because just a couple of days after I posted about her she made her Twitter private and deleted her IG. I didn't do anything or interact with her in any way. I hadn't even talked about her for a fairly long time so the only explanation is either her or one of her cronies watches me on KF constantly. It's possible that she just lurks here and no one did anything.

EDIT2: She changed her Twitter id. Lol, nice try. @251427x (archive)
She seems to be trying to hide her face from the internet. Nice try that one too

Paige has a colostomy now and is being coy about why. She's got a massive infection eating her leg. Talking about going home on comfort care.
Grifting Chinese plastic tat off her followers from amazon for reasons.
Give me the rainbows but I think she's genuinely going to die soon. What the hell happened to her bowel?

None of this makes any sense even with your edits. Maybe an introduction of who she is etc would be helpful. No one knows who this person is except you.

If I went and took a screenshot of my own personal cow and just posted "LOL can't believe he's suicide baiting again!" would you understand who and what I'm talking about? No.

Aiight, I'll do it when I have the time, promise <3
It's a story spanning several decades and I've only known her for a few years. I'll have to work on it.
Meanwhile here's the abridged version link
 
Newbies need to stop posting about cows if they don't have time/are too lazy to do a proper introductory post. This isn't a "hate" site. You can't just post random out-of-context things about people you don't like. We laugh at cows here and we can't laugh at a cow's antics if we don't know what's going on.

Jesus, is she Kelly Ronahan-ing her thigh? That's sus that the infected area is one she can easily reach.

I think so. Initially anyway and her chest too.. All the sores are where she can reach. Remember the pink and blue no no splints she had for a while?
The infections are set in now and antibiotic resistant so Paige doesn't need to induce them now. She's more bacteria than woman these days.
 
paige tiktok 3.png
Posted in February (didn't save the exact date). This was her last tiktok before posting vaguely about "major surgery" - somehow her bowels must've gotten infected and weren't able to be saved. It was probably just her other infection(s) spreading, but if she could've induced it somehow I wouldn't put it past her.

I was thinking about that while I scrolled through her recent posts. Not a medfag or a psych expert, but with all of her infections and the proof that it works, you would think that someone would suggest it again at this point. Do her doctors just know it's futile at this point?
Obviously I don't want anyone to die but Paige seems very determined to slowly kill herself with major infections and gather all the asspats along the way. Sometimes mental illness is untreatable.
 
Forgive me because I'm in the shallow end of munchie lore, so there's probably an answer. But are there any munchies faking blood sugar issues? I was thinking about it the other day. Continuous glucose monitors are visible (usually upper arm) and munchies love visible appliances on their body that make them look sick. Not to mention the "fun" of having a backup finger stick monitor and the production of checking your blood sugar. It seems like a perfect thing to munch because it checks all the boxes. It's visible, it makes you seem sick, and it can be a production.

If not, is it because their blood sugar would betray their "sickness" with numbers that come back completely normal? Seems easy enough to manipulate yourself into bad numbers by sneaking glucose tabs and shit. Plus you get the added side effect of actually feeling like shit. Or is it because diabetes doesn't have enough street cred sorry points?

I was also pondering about this. Paige must have a care plan. How far would docs go with "heroic measures" to bring her back from the edge.
I guess the colostomy is something relatively simple they could do to save her a really horrific death with her bowel rotting inside her.
I suppose the best case scenario for paige is a virulent, resistant infection reaches the heart or brain, one or other fails and its all over in 48 hours.

Strong case for euthanasia or assisted suicide IMO. How does Paige have a Good Death?

Injecting yourself with insulin when you are not diabetic is a sure way of entering into a coma, but it's hard to soak up the attention when you are unconscious. I posit they do not fake diabetes because the disease itself sucks too much and no one gets any asspats for having it even when it's Type 1.

I was assuming they'd never do the insulin part, just the "oh no my blood sugar is low I'm so weak" part. Maybe alluding to diabetes but only calling it a vauge "blood sugar issue" leaning more towards hypo than hyper.

I have seen a few type 1 folks make it their entire personality so that got me wondering too. I feel like you can munch anything if you try hard enough 🌈
 
diabetes is almost totally manageable. A lot of the EDS/GP shit is because it's more pitiable than not taking responsability for an eating disorde. To get sympathy and ass pats, some part of it has to be totally outside of your control.
It's not as if half the population with type 2 believes this. You'd be surprised how many 300+ lb non-compliant people consider themselves victims of genetics, and expect everyone else to see it the same way.

I remember Allyson (of the PTP variety) likes to munch the self-induced diabetes. Caused and exacerbated by pretending to need a feeding tube while still eating by mouth and exploding in weight. Also frequently suicide baits with insulin, and has claimed mysterious super special insulin resistance that totally isn't normal with every diabetic. Isn't necessary faking, but still playing victim and OTT.

I know there's quite a few generally claimed hypos, Dani and Hope come to mind as showing off tests of the low variety. Definitely goes with the fainting couch persona.

Oh Allyson. I miss her shenanigans. How is she doing in Deleware? What are her latest yums? The world needs to know.

IMO the best case scenario for her would be just sending her home in no-no casts and giving her comfort care only. Either a systemic infection would take her out or she'd make a miraculous recovery.

On that topic - what would someone like Paige even do if she wanted to recover? What's the medical approach for actual serious Munchausens? I'd imagine that there would be a lot of intensive therapy involved first for trying to find the root cause or at least provide some coping skills. But the feeding tubes, central lines, mobility aids, etc - do those just get removed?

Are there any known cases where someone came back from multi toob level munch?

I might need to re read that mark feldman book.

I think it might be because diabetes has objective diagnostic criteria; munchies go for an ill-defined or self-diagnosed hypoglycemia. You can get your own untrained "blood sugar service dog," but your insurance won't fund a CGM unless you have a documented need.

And no matter how loudly they HAES, deep down everyone knows that Type II diabetes has the fat stigma plus association with the elderly. If someone actually has DMII, then there's all kinds of rhinestone glucometer cope, but it's not a diagnosis they try to seek out.

Is a Type I diabetic who won't shut up about being a DIABETES WARRIOR a munchie, or is over-identifying with a legitimate chronic illness something else? It's definitely just as annoying.

Probably worse for the diabetic children of DIABETES WARRIOR MOM -- A JUICE BOX SAVED MY SON'S LIFE. It's like having a mom who's an Autism Mom, except you don't even have the chance of being socially unaware of the cringe.
