I’ve only seen CRPS once (the real kind with mad pain, swelling, temperature abnormalities, loss of hair growth etc). This guy developed CRPS after getting compartment syndrome post-cancer surgery where his legs were immobilized - not a lucky guy.

I've never heard of compartment syndrome post surgery only in serious crush accidents now i'm quite curious how that led to compartment syndrome.

Kelly never went into detail about it but it did not appear to have been a crush injury. You can see the gnarly scar where they opened her leg. Most of her socials were taken down after her death but there were pics of it wide open on one of her instas back in the day. The way she worded it, it was very out of the blue and unexpected that this happened to her because she hadn't been in a serious accident.

He was in for surgery of the rectum, strapped in a gyn chair, complications during surgery so prolonged procedure, someone forgot to check distal circulation (I guess), next day chaos and compartment syndrome of the calf ensued. As I said, NOT a lucky guy…

Also, in my previous post - he did PT, not PE. I’m retarded so forgive me

You can get compartment syndrome on a few areas, but it's most common in calf just because of the structure of the lower leg. In comparison, the thigh and upper arm are much "roomier" so it's not likely to happen there. You can also get abdominal compartment syndrome.

It is just when there is too much swelling in one of the compartments and the swelling is leading to impaired blood circulation (which then kills off nerves who can't get a good blood supply).
So it's always a risk after lower limb surgery in particular, your leg is usually immobilised, maybe in a cast, and the natural process of inflammation causes fluid to increase in the tissues. So it's important for Nurses to do regular neurovascular observations to check you have normal movement, sensation, pulses, and your pain is controlled.

The classic way to remember a compromised limb is: "pale, pulseless, paraesthesia (change in sensation), paralysis, perishingly cold (to touch)".
However if you have all those you're pretty fucked they are quite late signs.

It looks like the whole injury saga started with “a fall”, the carpal tunnel release was to help that, they thought she was getting compartment syndrome at the beginning. Reddit speculated that she deliberately worsened the injury in order to need more surgery, some of the photos looked pretty awful to my inexperienced eye. Between the surgeries she claimed to have banged it taking out the garbage, and then there was another fall.

In the latest Reddit update the photos look better so I hope she leaves the damned thing alone and doesn’t do a Kelly.

Spoiler: Very bruised arm

Can't be that bad, Dani. We all know you took both those pictures yourself and if you can hold your phone you are categorically not as bad as you're claiming. I call shenanigans, the bruising will mostly be from the blood thinners and she's not averse to self-harm so high chance she's deliberately fucking with it. Come back when you've got legit compartment syndrome and have had it surgically flayed, bish.

So now I’m waiting for Dani’s CRPS arc. Her arc will be different from his though, because she is a certified retard who has a long history of being terrible at faking things

FTFY

Is this why, after some surgeries, they put those weird inflating compression things on your legs? Well, that and, I am guessing, to help prevent blood clots?

I don't imagine it'd do much for compartment syndrome. Itd probably make it worse. Like you said it's mainly for blood clots. The heart pumps blood to things but the process of getting it back is a passive process. There's one way valves in veins and your muscles contracting moves deoxygenated blood slowly back to the heart. Blood tends to pool in the big deep veins in your legs and can clot if left there for too long. Walking and using your leg muscles keeps it moving so if you cant walk or use your leg muscles you need a little help. It's also why it's recommended you get up and walk around the plane every so often on very long flights so your blood doesn't stagnate in your legs and start clotting. There's even been people who have developed blood clots from playing video games all day without moving their legs but you have to be the addicted to videogames and peeing in bottles kind of gamer for that to happen because unless you're really old even getting up to pee or grab a snack is usually enough to keep it moving

If there is one thing I cannot fucking stand, it is people with actual factual disabilities who legitimize munchies and people with fake disabilities. They are the handmaidens of the disability community. I recently had the opportunity to view a zoom panel discussion of young adults with disabilities, and the members of the panel were as follows: a fat white self-diagnosed autistic college themby (obviously a dude), a skinny just-out-of-college white girl with hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos and POTS, a 20 year old white dude with ADHD, and. . . a young Black man with SPINA BIFIDA who used a wheelchair and self-catheterized due to neurogenic bladder. One of these things just doesn't belong here, but wait, he's exactly the sort of guy who DOES belong here. He has an ACTUAL DISABILITY, not something made up as an excuse for why they can't get their shit together. If I were disabled, I would be furious at these clowns taking over the narrative. What bullshit.

I have a serious and very limiting physical disability which I was born with, and recently I made the mistake of thinking that r/disability might be a good place to connect with other cripples. The entire thing is just a massive circlejerk of wankers asking how they can convince mummy and daddy to buy them a wheelchair after the doctor says there’s nothing wrong with them, and the members who do have a significant disability always cluck in and are super supportive.

There was even a post from someone saying they wanted a cane just because they feel more themselves with one and all the comments were fawning with shit like “If you feel like you need one you need one, it’s okay fam”. I honestly couldn’t believe what I was seeing, they’ve literally gone down the road of validating people who identify as disabled but are not.

The next post I see about some fat teenaged themby asking what colour of rhinestones they should decorate their cane with I’m going to Dignitas.

Hadn't seen Rose for a few and then she popped up with this incredibly over the top video where she deliberately drools all over herself.
Why go to tiktok with this kind of issue if it's legit?

Boring Jessica gets a pass for the rest of her account because it seriously feels like work I should be getting paid for to read her drivel at this point and it’s not sparking joy*. I thought it was going to be more interesting since a bunch of us have been watching her flail for months now but it turns out she’s one you read the highlights of and then the humor lies in the lack of progress. The ending is she still can’t convince anyone she’s sick, she still never got her SSDI, she’s on her last appeal and fired her lolyer after the last one failed last year but then had to ask him to recommend her someone else because she couldn’t find anyone willing to take up her case. She shuttered the blog when it got no engagement, started an extremely cringe ASMR channel that also got no engagement, screams about the algorithm suppressing her constantly without ever recognizing that it’s because she’s boring as shit, entitled, and whiny and no one cares because she’s not bringing the medical drama, and her boyfriend maybe broke up with her after she love-bombed the shit out of him for months on end.

I’ll just add this: last week she went to get scoped and some bloodwork and was bitching that when she came out of the procedure they told her everything was visibly normal but they sent out biopsies. She’s just posted all the results. Surprise, she’s totally healthy. I especially like her being confused about her GFR being so high. Congratulations on your healthy, functioning kidneys.

This one is BY FAR the most obsessed-with-her-own-lame-lore Munchie cow I've ever seen in this thread. She has a PhD in having her head up her own twat. It's impressive, in a way. Like she is PASSIONATE about being fake-sick.

 

[Dr. Nick Riviera]

I especially like her being confused about her GFR being so high. Congratulations on your healthy, functioning kidneys.

I double extra like that her high GFR is obviously within the normal range, which is clearly listed as >=60. Which makes me think that she does not know what the > and < signs mean.

She also does not understand that random deviations from the normal range for many labs are totally meaningless because they are frequently caused by minor illness or injury. Her slightly elevated ESR, C3, and endoscopy findings could all be explained by a tummy bug within the last month or two. Hell, if you get complete blood counts on every 2 year old in daycare during the winter months, the vast majority of them will have elevated platelets and mild lymphocytosis because those things happen during viral illnesses, and every 2 year old in daycare in the winter has a snotty nose. Doesn't mean they're chronically ill.

What the actual fuck am I watching. I'm a total noob here, but I was unaware of this gal. She's absolutely repulsive. Does she understand that if her sats are actually in the low 80s or below, she'd be visibly cyanotic? No? I guess not. I don't know why I'm shocked at finding another person who's munched her way into a trach - she's not the only one - but damn. And severe "stiff person syndrome" - not likely. Does she even know what spasticity looks like? I'm guessing not, because none of her movements or resting postures are indicative of spasticity - much less severe spasticity. Here's what respiratory failure actually looks like in SPS, and it's so vanishingly rare that this patient's doctors wrote it up as a case report for a medical journal: https://karger.com/crn/article/15/1/187/861749/Recurrent-Acute-on-Chronic-Respiratory-Failure-in Hint: it's not "feelin cute, might hook up my vent, idk."

I see that the Creeper of Creeps has interviewed her: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PJjfUaEp-jI She spends half the interview discussing a suicide attempt and her near-death experience that TOTALLY HAPPENED YOU GUIZE.

Of course her boyfriend is her caregiver. And of course his name is "Blayze."

Yeah she's a special one, Rose the Fairy Grandmother. No one can figure out how she got the trach that she clearly does not need and she loves to post videos of her choking and gagging while she changes it out. She also has somehow gotten fitted for weird cloven hoof orthotics meant for toe-walking children, but she rarely wears them.


Before she moved to her current place she slept in an oversized crib and she occasionally tries to crowdfund a new custom crib that looks like a horse stable.

There's definitely a fetish angle involved but also trauma response. She apparently suffered some really severe and prolonged sex abuse as a kid. Unfortunately a lot of her older stuff has gotten deleted with no archive. There's a bunch of nice reddit ladies who archive her current accounts.

Benzodiazepines such as diazepam are also indicated for muscle spasms. Diazepam is a pretty effective muscle relaxant.

I know that, but I still wouldn’t prescribe them for someone who had problems breathing? But fair point, that explains it.

I think she’s refreshing. All these other munchies are getting surgeries, taking drugs, starving, buying wheelchairs and she’s just “I may not look sick and doctors say I’m not sick but I’m never getting a job ::goes back to bed::
