Thank most of you for understanding how much work this takes - Jamie alone is something like 20gb of screenshots and videos I had to sort and then write funny words about and I am in fact a grown up person with a full time job. I'm glad it entertains people, thanks for being patient, etc etc.
So as I said in part 2, her twitter is now dead and all her updates were on deleted accounts for about a year. From what I can tell she was using a personal account called jema_bean on instagram during this period but it's long gone. The only public post I can find for the whole of this period is one video on facebook where she's ice skating. It's not at all interesting. She does a little twirl and then it ends.
In October she changes her profile pic to this.
Her sicksta finally starts on Halloween 2018 with this post. #EDS, #lupus #raynauds #sjorgens (not how that’s spelled kiddo), #dysautonomia, #mitralvalveprolapse. As a Jehoohoo she does not acknowledge that it’s Halloween and as a writer, not having holidays to mark the passage of time is more disorienting than you think holy shit.
Second post, her liver enzymes are elevated. Normally I’d make a joke about alcoholism here (and google tells me Jehombres are not one of the religions that outright ban alcohol consumption. Her family definitely doesn’t ban it - Papa Bruce has a
fine taste in whiskey). I’m gonna guess a pain med is our culprit here. She really doesn’t seem to indulge in firewater even when out with her friends for a night.
Note the dates on these. She’s flooding a whole bunch of posts in at once right off the bat and this will be her pattern for a loooong time. Post after post on the same day, especially if she gets to be in the hospital for any reason.
Shoulder surgery finally happens, a labrum repair, common in gymnasts. I think Jamie’s joints are mostly just messed up because she was overstretching and overexercising without learning proper form. I think the initial problem with her ankle was she was fucking around in pointe shoes without learning proper technique or having the muscle to properly support herself, and once they told her “stop doing that before you need surgery” she started doing it more and doing more energetic dances until surgery was the only option, then kept at it until she blew out the repairs. The shoulder thing, you can see her hanging off of all sorts of things in cosplay videos, she loves rock climbing and gymnastics tricks, she carries one of her friends, but she’s again not bothering to build muscle to stabilize the joint. She’s just going for it over and over. And now she’s not eating, so add an eating disorder breaking down tissues into the mix.
She almost never talks about her lupus diagnosis. Not even name dropping a biologic she takes for it or #chemo for methotrexate, and when she does briefly mention it the story she tells makes like absolutely zero sense. I’m inclined to think this rheum is a quack and she was just diagnosed with a shitload of stuff at once by him but doesn’t actually get treated for most of it. She does mention eye drops for Sjogrens at one point.
Claiming this is not a posture issue but just “how she grew up.” So. Posture. Leg weakness and breath-taking pain that makes her fall down. Mild curve and one of her clavicles is higher than the other because of the surgery she just had, supposedly, although I guess she could just be bending that way on purpose. ETA: spinefag friend confirms this is within normal limits for spinal curvature.
Cute dog. It’s allegedly a GSDxCorgi mix and it’s a fluffy stumpy little fuck. #servicedog. Oh ffs. She got it a year ago during the content drought.
She’s employed as a seamstress now.
We also learn that during the content drought, she and a friend went on a dream trip to Japan. So it seems like when she moved at the end of her twitter account, she also took this job and I guess it pays well enough to go on dream trips. Maybe she’s also still getting supplemental income from her kpop reaction days or maybe she got a settlement from the car accident or something, who knows?
Her shoulder is subluxed and she thinks the surgery didn’t work. Lmao fucking up another surgery so fast, Jamie?
This Malaysian (?) person asks if they can have her sling. I cannot figure this fucker out, he/she appeared in a couple munchie accounts I've been browsing. Married muzzy with a kid who runs a homestay vacation service, can't tell if the husband or wife is in charge of this account (both this one and the other spouse's are private). Pops up on photos of munchies wearing braces and asks if they still need it or would be willing to give it away. Not even necessarily young slender women like Jamie, one of them was a big fat grey-haired steroid blob. I guess it doesn't rule out a fetish angle but
fuck it's weird.
Seems to be having food troubles recently. Keels over in agony from eating a salad and goes to the emergency room. She’s told (as usual!) that they don’t know what the problem is and have them send her home. Gallbladder might be irritated, might be appendicitis. But they give her the good stuff before they toss her out and tell her to follow up with her PCP. I love that the “cried all my makeup off” photo is followed by one where she’s got her typical vapid slack-jawed gaze.
Contact dermatitis to whatever they clean the BP cuffs with = major MCAS action.
This best friend is also a Jehoopla and lives in Arkansas.
So she’s separated from the dog for a while but won’t tell us why.
Last time it was from age 2, but okay. At least we have some proof she was in gymnastics at some point as a child
She has to eat a fatty meal to get her gallbladder tested. All this time claiming she can’t handle solids but she manages to eat a giant borger and an order of parmesan truffle fries. It totally made her feel awful guys, she was in agony, unlike all of us who feel great after eating massive greasy fast food meals.
Lol this one thinks her SpO2 going up is a bad sign?
HIDA test for her gallbladder.
Sounds like the doctors don’t think this is her problem
So she’s sent to the GI who says there
is something up with her gallbladder and she needs to see a surgeon, but that won’t happen for a month.
And home for a liquid meal. All of these posts from the HIDA scan until now have happened in one day, and we’re only a week from the start of her account. Two things to say about this. 1) holy shit you cannot imagine the sheer amount of absolute crap this girl posts that I have to scan for points of interest. I haven't even looked into her stories and will not even try to figure out where the fuck they fit in the narrative because holy god in heaven this bitch loves to flap her gums. 2) she documents anything even vaguely medical and therefore if she drops a diagnosis and
doesn't document her treatment for it (lupus lol) it's safe to assume she's not being treated. If she had a documented rare 'n' shiny she would never stop crowing about it. If she had methotrexate or a -mab for lupus she would never stop going on and on about her "chemo".
Another GI appointment three days later.
Followed by PT
And zebra jammies. She's so very punchable.
She’s a big disney fan, of course.
What is the placebo effect?
Migraine and blurry vision, the nasal spray abortive doesn’t work. So she decides to go get bubble tea. Ah yes, the best remedy is a sugary kawaii asian drink.
Can’t eat solids, please take my gallbladder. We know what she’s really fishing for.
By the 21st she’s complaining of a lot of weight loss but it’s okay, she knows what to do now and it’ll be all better.
Every time she says “I am fatigue” I laugh. Like I know she’s just dumb as hell but I just imagine her like a comic book villain, the avatar of fatigue, bringing a deep sense of exhaustion to all she encounters. I am very mature.
Someone calls her out for taking up an accessible parking spot at the store when she’s just got the tireds, a healed surgery, and a hurty stomach.
Yes, imagine that, an EDS munchie who used to be a gymnast, who ever heard of such a thing? (this was my original caption but extra LOLLLLL at the fact that we now know she wasn’t even properly trained and was just doing stunts and excessive flexibility training for munchie purposes)
Dogs do that. It’s normal dog stuff. #servicedogintraining
don’t fuckin do it bro.
Another migraine. She takes aimovig (biologic injection) for it. Might look into acupuncture for it. She’s already tried botox.
Dairy-free pesto zucchini with shrimp. Hope she tolerates it!! Sounds like it’s a recipe taken from a “healthy low carb dairy free gluten free recipes to jump start your weight loss” pinterest pin doesn’t it?
She buys herself a custom zebra blanket to use for future surgeries and hospitalizations. Lol I love when these girls give away that they’re planning to be in the hospital a lot. What exactly does Jamie have that makes her think she’s going to be in the hospital enough to get a custom blanket to show off her EDS stripes to all the medfags who walk in and why doesn’t she realize what a hilarious red flag that is? So far she’s had tummy ickies, migraines, and a few blown-out tendons from dance.
Dry needling at PT. She’s gained some strength back in places she had none. Well, sounds like she’s on the mend!
Getting another EKG.
More PT shit, I don’t know what any of this means if I’m honest but she confirms that she has gotten surgery on the wrist. I don't know if she broke it and then needed surgery to repair or if this was another joint she just blew out for fun
She’s done literally everything to avoid surgery on both her knees and one of her ankles except stop doing ridiculous dances in high heels, overstretching, and going en pointe without proper training, which she acknowledges she’s been told to stop doing for years now. Her knees are getting fulkerson procedures which is for patellofemoral instability, subluxations, and dislocations. Happens a lot with overtraining injuries. Her ankle’s gonna get another cadaver graft.
Metal.
Worst migraine, better take a selfie.
Coffee? Fine. Milky tea with milky pudding? Fine.
Omg I am in agony from anything I eat!!!!
Aimovig. Claims that she had 16 days of severe migraines in the last month but she’s giving it another shot.
#badmigraineday. Better spend it staring at my bright-ass phone screen, playing mario games, and watching fireworks!
Oh no how could this happen. Also “I am fatigue, bringer of exhaustion!”
The dog has been demoted to #supportdog
Doing everything to make the migraine go away except putting the damn phone down. Instead she gets a massage that doesn’t help her but does make her cry for some reason. So that’s like.. six posts? She made while claiming to be in excruciating migraine pain.
Showing off her old surgery style from when she flew across the country to see her favorite cute azn bois after grifting for medical expenses.
Oh look she learned how to spell Sjogrens! I’ll forgive her the umlaut. She wakes up feeling like she has sand in her eyes because of it.
She’ll be getting both her left knee and ankle reconstructed at the same time, most likely in February. She’s been throwing her hip out because of how bad her leg is. Working on destroying another joint already, Jamie?
Lol this is so dumb, three days ago she posted this as part of her ankle surgery dump but now she’s acting like she doesn’t remember what surgery it was, teehee, too many to count! What a retarded thing to lie about.
Fruit smoothie, veggie juice, carrot. She’s just craving low calorie vegetables all of a sudden!
Veggies, beef broth and I guess ranch dressing? Feeling so bad, terrible nausea, can’t eat anything except raw celery.
In the midst of this fantastic diet she “passes out” and fucks up her knee more than it already was.
Saving up for forearm crutches.
This last ankle surgery was the worst. Couldn’t walk for four months, got infected bursitis in her knee and almost needed surgery on that. She’s gonna get through it!
I hear raw pomegranate seeds are perfect for GI troubles.
So per the googles, this steroid electrode thing is something called iontophoresis which is a transdermal drug delivery method that uses electricity to make the skin more permeable to the drug molecules. Holy shit I can’t believe this is a thing, science is magic. As with the BP cuff thing, I think she’s not reacting to the steroid but to whatever they use to clean her skin or the equipment before they do this. Might be chlorhexidine, it’s a pretty common contact allergen especially if you keep getting exposed over and over like she does.
This is a rambutan but close enough, my point is more raw fruit and vegetables.
Normie cold, sinus pressure, feeling dizzy, also pain from teeth extracted years ago.
Making a big deal out of an endoscopy and she has sooooooo many allergies. No she won’t tell us what they are.
Jamie makes a post about how she doesn’t want to look sick and is trying her best not to show it in her face. Fine. In the comments her spoonie friend assures her she looks very sick then goes on the obligatory rant about people saying she doesn’t look sick enough. (Ahhhhh this is where I was going to lead into another post but on further review and consulting other people who are way more versed in this than I ever will be we landed on ‘real EDS but totally over-the-top about it” like mickey/life_with_stripes. She was diagnosed long before the EDS boom started and has things the instamunchies can never pull off. She’s just really dramatic about everything and a lifetime of polypharmacy and poor lifestyle decisions has left her in her current state. Her current state is obese, greying, steroid-bloated covid karen living in her mother’s basement so uh, not exactly the glamorous fragile dying swans the zebra set want to be.)
Pushed myself too hard and my legs gave out, better take a selfie.
I know this weird stilted smile is some weeb thing because I’ve seen other weeby girls like Magibon do it but god it’s so triggering.
At some point she stopped being a seamstress and now she’s a caretaker, I guess. Also she is extremely Fatigue now.
Baking a lot for other people while claiming she’s too sick to eat. This is another one of those ana-chan things.
You can see one of her old surgery scars on the outside of her ankle. It healed fine with no EDS atrophic “cigarette paper” scarring.
At first I was just confused by what I was reading. Then I saw the name, oh boy. Dr. Alan Pocinki studies the (made up) connection between ME/CFS and EDS and has a glowing profile on one of my favorite hives of crazy people, the MEpedia. This is one of his more famous talking points, that the reason these girls get diagnosed with anxiety, personality disorders, eating disorders, and other psychiatric problems instead of the holy combo platter is because their bodies make too much adrenaline.
Eats a sandwich, doesn’t feel good, horrible pain, can barely breathe, now at the ER. Doesn’t really update. Gallbladder attack or malingering? You decide!
Gets a sample of this electrolyte solution stuff. In the comments, an MLM hun would like to sell her Shakeology.
Still just looks like contact dermatitis to me.
Another migraine better take a selfie in my bright-ass car.
She’s been at the hospital for 10 hours running on nothing but two cups of coffee and now a cup of beef broth. Wow wonder why she feels like shit all the time, passes out, and her heart is always racing.
But she’s quitting coffee forever after this one last drink! Because #heart #palpitations #mitralvalveprolapse #pots
On the last day of the year she announces she’ll be doing a photo-a-day chronic illness challenge to help her accept her illnesses and see that they’re real. Girl.
Fascinating. She went to a doctor and got diagnosed with EDS and lupus but that doctor didn’t want to help her and didn’t tell her what they were so she just ignored this information because it obviously wasn’t important. What? There’s no way. Untreated lupus melts your fucking kidneys. There is no doctor on earth who isn’t going to get you on immune suppressants if you actually have it. My guess is she lit up some inflammation markers on a blood test and they said it could be something autoimmune like lupus but probably wasn’t. Three years later she went to another doctor who
told her what she wanted to hear confirmed it was EDS and lupus and set her up with other doctors who diagnosed her with a bunch of other shit. In part 2 she just talks about her mom dying when she was 17, her hobbies (kpop!!!!) and that she grew up by the ocean.
It’s an optical illusion. Red and green are complementary colors (along with yellow-purple and orange-blue), so when her sclerae are bloodshot, it makes the green in her eyes pop and mutes the brown.
She only does the EDS challenge thing for two days before she gets yet another concussion and is told to stop staring at her goddamned phone all day.
She comes back six days later to let us know she’s still recovering and hasn’t gotten much rest at all because of her terrible troubles with food. She’s so swollen and bloated and she’s had 11 doctors appointments this week. She has to get them all done now because she’s moving out of Colorado soon.
CT scan with contrast for her GI troubles. She’s allergic to contrast and had to take a short course of pred. How many times is this girl gonna waffle on whether or not she's allergic to steroids? Also your heart rate and BP shooting up because of steroids? Yeah that's what they do. Congratulations on being totally normal.
Doctors decide it was probably her gallbladder. She’s scheduled to have it removed in two weeks.
She jumps back into the challenge to talk about all the food she loves but won’t eat.
EEG to figure out if she’s having absence seizures or migraine auras. These aren’t really similar are they? (honest question.)
Gymnastics back story, she started when she was three because her hyperflexibility (THIS IS NORMAL, TODDLERS ARE BENDY AS FUCK), became a coach at the end, but after two concussions she became afraid to do it anymore. This is another reason I thought she was a competitive gymnast for a long time, because she makes it sound like it was a continuous run from age 3 until she became a coach as a young adult. Now we know she quit when she was 11, went back for a few months at 15, had a few more brief periods of trying to get back to gymnastics and injuring herself immediately then became a coach by taking a 6 week course after like two years without any gym time. Also I didn’t really think she had concussions to begin with but now that I know this happened right when that youtube channel was taking off and she thought she was going to be a famous dancer? Yeah she just wanted to quit her job. There’s no real test for concussions, like they can’t give her a blood test and determine she hasn’t had one. As long as she kept up the act they couldn’t say she wasn’t experiencing those symptoms.
New brace, who dis?
“If someone is not well one day, don’t judge and say ‘oh well you did this the other day so you’re fine you just want attention’.” Does this happen a lot, Jamie? Having trouble reconciling your energetic k-pop dancing with your “so sick every day” kvetching? I do wonder if she deleted her other instagram because too many people called her out for this shit.
Still trying to determine between absence seizures or migraine auras with loss of consciousness. Progresses to a migraine.
Let me solve this mystery: it’s not lupus. It might be mild flushing from the steroids. Now claiming she has MCAS and has just found a new doctor to help her with it.
Planning which fluffy toys to bring to the hospital with her.
Aimovig and a body check.
Still on her liquid diet of only cute, caffeinated drinks.
Baby’s first vog mask, she absolutely needed it before surgery!
Obligatory “I’m faking being well” but also she posts her bad days to help her accept her diagnoses. “You don’t look sick or you’re fine stop trying to get attention.’ How often do you hear this, Jamie?
Applying for a tugboat for her adjustable disabilities. Gosh! So much paper work and how do I reconcile lying about my level of disability on this paper when it makes me feel all icky inside?!
Now it was three years ago the bad doctor diagnosed her then refused to help. It hasn’t even been a month kid, scroll back in your feed and review your lies. Photo from her first ever surgery on her ankle.
Gastric emptying study! This is very exciting and she spends all day on her phone updating us minute-by-minute.
Two days later, she gets her gallbladder out, gets morphine and a bunch of other pain medications. Oh my gosh what could be causing my low heart rate???
The extreme pain and complications have not slowed down her social media use. All these posts have been from the day of surgery.
Oh lord In heaven. “I’m having trouble posting.”
This is all still the same day. They’re trying to get her up and walking but she keeps almost fainting.
And one last post of the night, and it’s a fake sleepy selfie.
Just a few hours later she updates again to let us know her oxygen dropped. Then she goes silent for four days.
...When we find out she’s still in. Heart rate still low, still desaturating when they take the oxygen off, blood pressure is through the floor. I asked around a bit because this was another time I was thinking she might actually be sick and I was tilting at windmills. Nope, turns out this is just what happens when you’re on a shitload of opiates and refuse to move after surgery.
She’s discharged on day 5. “My normal will be different from your ‘usual’ patient’s normal. So please be willing to listen, to understand, and to learn from those of us who are not your ‘normal’ patients.” Yeah she malingered for mega doses of drugs and used the fake EDS drug metabolism/slow healing bullshit to justify it, that’s my final guess.
She got her new crutches and she’s bling blinging them. Getting ready for the wheelchair life but to be fair she is getting her whole leg operated on in a few weeks.
Gallbladder didn’t fix the stomach ouchies and she hasn’t mentioned the GES so I’m gonna guess that was a bust too. She’s on a bunch of new meds and now they want a 72 hour EEG. Also notice that she’s now tagging vEDS and cEDS and a bunch of other EDS hashtags just out of nowhere.
Her shoulder is doing wonderfully six months post-op. The reason she needed the forearm crutches was because the doctor who did the shoulder reconstruction didn’t want her blowing it out with underarm crutches, but they still want her using them as little as possible. This bodes well.
GI followup, still complaining that she can’t eat. The wounds are healing beautifully – so much for that EDS slow wound healing, eh? Also ayyy I was right, it’s a chlorhexidine allergy!
Pre-op for the leg reconstruction.
She was also a theater person and loved performing. Good, acting skills are important in munchausen syndrome. There’s one video on her old rock100girl961 youtube where she does a skit for her drama class and another time where she does a dance audition and characteristically brags about how she hadn’t learned the choreography but she still nailed it and everyone clapped and told her she was the best dancer ever. But she really doesn’t appear to have actually acted in anything outside of a theater class that performed at the local elementary school. Not even the school musical, lol.
Agony Autie in the comments!
A Cameo from Mary Frey!!! yeah sure she paid for Mary’s attention but oh my gosh it means so much that Mary took her money and made a video saying the same things she would say to literally any other person who booked a cameo and requested uplifting words for her upcoming surgery!
Tomorrow’s the big day! Gettin that leg carved up! She almost called it off but then she decided to be brave.
It’s surgery day!
And here’s how we know Jamie has experienced real pain, because unlike right after the gallbladder surgery where she was spamming every second of her admission and complaining about everything while saying she was in agonizing pain until they gave her enough morphine to chill out an approaching Cat 5 hurricane, this time she’s silent for four whole days before popping up to say she’s finally feeling just a little better but still won’t be active. Waiting to hear if she’ll be discharged to rehab yet.
“Post op moments before all hell broke loose.” Well that doesn’t sound good.
But she’s discharged for home rehab instead of a clinic stay.
She’s opioid intolerant. She means she’s opioid tolerant. She’s had so many surgeries and injuries and been on so many pain meds that even the one that starts with D isn’t working for her anymore (and don’t ask about alternatives – she’s ALLERGIC!!!) Of course she’s trying to imply it’s just a thing that happened because of her darn EDS or whatever. Based doctors send her home with nothing and tell her to ice it. That would be the all hell breaking loose, eh? They told her no more pain meds and she lost it.
Here’s the ankle all sliced and trussed up.
