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

Update on awful Australian brain-cancer faker and whole food fraud Belle Gibson. She was convicted of consumer fraud in Australia and ordered to pay $400,000 ish in fines. So far she has repaid nothing.

She lives in a nice chi-chi inner city suburb, goes on holidays to Africa and dabbles in cryptocurrencies, and claims she doesn't know what her not-boyfriend who is paying all this stuff does for a living.

This chick makes me mad on the internet.

I found my new favorite munchie a few weeks ago but Jaquie/IF drama and the return of Dani to active discussion distracted me. She's gold, though.

Kat is from York, PA, a grand metropolis out in Pennsyltucky with nothing to do but fake sick. She used to have another instagram, but if it's still around at all, I can't find it. 2014 she started this one which apparently used to be @kat_barfs (classy) to document her journey from skinny cute 23 year old woman who wasn't getting enough attention to morbidly obese genderblob in a wheelchair. She claims to have gastroparesis (lol), POTS, fibromyalgia, overactive bladder, polycystic ovaries, a serious nut allergy, migraines, osteopenia, spinal stenosis, arthritis and more. Is currently looking into EDS, it appears. The apparent trigger for all of this was moving to York from Baltimore followed immediately by a bout of appendicitis in 2014. From what little she says about it, it seems like her apartment in Baltimore was a filth hole full of alcoholics and she left to move back in with the 'rents until she could get a place with her boyfriend.

All she ever posts about is her health and her pets and like most munchies she does not work and no longer has any real friends. Describes herself as a "professional patient and all-around sick person" on Facebook. Ready?

Here is one of the first posts on her 'gram. She's claimed to have just had an appendectomy and bowel resection. that is a drain tube, not a feeding tube, coming out of her nose.

Birthday cake is a smoothie, eating baby foods, humblebrag about weight loss. She never explains what's happened to her, never mentions a diagnosis, but she also doesn't engage in hashtag abuse. She seems to have just been reporting her life to friends and most of her early posts are about trips to nearby Baltimore, moving out on her own, concerts, parties, and her pets. Nothing that would raise alarm bells for me.

Wellspan Hospital is apparently on her shit list.
Screen Shot 2019-05-15 at 10.33.05.png

Here we go. Reglan is for gastroparesis, protonix is a proton-pump inhibitor for acid reflux, and by "shit tea" she means tea made from senna, the stimulant laxative that is in Ex-Lax. Camrese is just birth control.

Like Dani she was studying to be a Pharmacy Tech, with her protein shake and baby food.

Bought a blender to make her own slop, does not need scrubs anymore because she apparently quit school. She also starts hiking and posting gym selfies, having fun, being a normal 24-year-old. Looks like she's on the mend.

Longer hospital stay at Wellspan York, which apparently doesn't go her way so she switches to Hershey, an hour away. Doesn't mention this again and is not in the hospital the next day so apparently they didn't want her either.

She's been trying to get a better job for months and despite her ridiculous outfits, she gets one. Her health stabilizes and she stops bitching about everything for weeks. Can drink wine, mixed cocktails, beer, and cider and eat nachos. It's a miracle, she's cured everyone. Praise the magic two-week tube.

Another hospital admit. Morphine and sent home. Getting visibly heavier despite "gastroparesis" and no tube.
Screen Shot 2019-05-15 at 11.11.34.png

Another hospital admit. IV saline, refuses to eat food until she gets another NJ. By the way it's a munchie trope to be in the hospital for important events like holidays, birthdays, and weddings. This is because the attention isn't on them and/or they get more sympathy for not being able to participate in the event. They get all the medical attention and drama they crave plus the "poor Kat couldn't come to thanksgiving so we'll all come visit her to make her feel better" extra attention. This is why Jaq's last fatal admit was over Easter and moving to a new house.

Tubed again, naturally. Magic tube to the rescue. Once installed she suddenly can handle oral intake again. She doesn't even have the Jaquie excuse of "oh I can vent and drain so my nausea isn't as bad" with an NJ.

GJ tube talk starts. Mentions going to Temple for a gastric stimulator which is the same hospital Dani got hers placed at (and I think the only one in the city that really does them as they're a crapshoot). Is on domperidone which is not approved in the US but many doctors suggest patients order from Canada because it's used everywhere else in the world with no problems.
Screen Shot 2019-05-15 at 11.19.45.png

E-begging begins. Just for the dog.

Less than a week after mentioning it, she gets her GJ. Immediately starts decorating it like a good munchie.

Ah yes, because you can't just like, wrap it around to your back or lace the extension tubing up underneath your shirt. You have to lace it through the front so everyone can see it, because it's not stuck to your face anymore so how will they know you're the sickest spoonie?

Immune compromised, must mask. Masks are better worn by the person who has the flu as they will catch the moisture from their coughing and sneezing and prevent it from being breathed in by others or landing on common surfaces. With regular hand washing by the sick person and others in the house, it can markedly improve the odds of not spreading the flu. She never mentions immune issues before or after this.

HELP MY DOG IS DYING AND WE NEED TO USE OUR ENTIRE TAX REFUND TO PAY FOR HER SURGERY AND IT'S NOT ENOUGH WE NEED YOUR HELP. Proceeds to spend tax refund on toobie pads. By the way what's wrong with the dog is they never spayed her and fed her too much shitty food and she ended up with mammary tumors and pancreatitis.

Start of the "I fall down all the time and definitely need a wheelchair" saga. Next day goes for a Tilt Table Test and gets diagnosed "borderline POTSy." TTT is very easy to fake. Just don't eat or drink for a day or two and you've got a POTS diagnosis, and days after she gets it she admits she's super dehydrated. Suddenly needs to use the scootypuff at the grocery store.

Meds. "York did a shitty job and I needed a bigger tube!" Funny, you seem to be gaining weight just fine with your bad tube. Shes on TwoCal HN after this, twice as calorific as standard formula and one of the highest density formulations you can buy.

Let's see what Kat takes. Gas-Ex. Toramax which is an NSAID, Linzess which is for constipation, Dexilant is a proton pump inhibitor for acid reflux, salt for POTS, coke is actual Coca Cola for flushing clogged lines if you need to, Celexa is an SSRI for depression, whole fuckton of benadryl, more NSAID, and of course a narcotic.

Apparently a doctor realized that at 100 lbs over her target weight she no longer needed TPN. Hickman removed, continues to whine about how faking sick made her fat because she kept eating on TPN. So naturally she can't tolerate her tube feeds and needs another hospital vacation.

She used to have another instagram, but if it's still around at all, I can't find it. 2014 she started this one which apparently used to be @kat_barfs (classy) to document her journey from skinny cute 23 year old woman who wasn't getting enough attention to morbidly obese genderblob in a wheelchair.

Another hospital admit. IV saline, refuses to eat food until she gets another NJ. By the way it's a munchie trope to be in the hospital for important events like holidays, birthdays, and weddings. This is because the attention isn't on them and/or they get more sympathy for not being able to participate in the event. They get all the medical attention and drama they crave plus the "poor Kat couldn't come to thanksgiving so we'll all come visit her to make her feel better" extra attention.

Mentions going to Temple for a gastric stimulator which is the same hospital Dani got hers placed at (and I think the only one in the city that really does them as they're a crapshoot).

Immune compromised, must mask. Masks are better worn by the person who has the flu as they will catch the moisture from their coughing and sneezing and prevent it from being breathed in by others or landing on common surfaces. With regular hand washing by the sick person and others in the house, it can markedly improve the odds of not spreading the flu. She never mentions immune issues before or after this.

Thanks for all of this, what a wild ride from one extreme eating disorder to another.

How did the Doctors not burst out laughing when she claimed she couldn't eat but tripled in size? I don't think it can even be explained away if she was also taking steroids for long periods of time for inflammation (Fibro? Arthritis?)

Also, that is the ugliest fucking ring I've ever laid eyes on.
 
That doggo looks like he's got a fair amount of Coonhound in him, in which case he will look like someone pissed in his cheerios no matter how happy he is. Even brand new coonhound puppies look like they're tired of living. Not saying he's happy, of course.

Psychiatric service dogs are a thing, and under ADA law in order to be considered a service dog it must do one trained task that mitigates a diagnosed disability. So if she could argue her panic attacks were debilitating and he is trained to do deep pressure therapy in response to them then yes, he is considered a service dog.

Of course whether or not she really has debilitating panic attacks.... :roll:

Is it getting easier to obtain a service dog now? I know some munchies just stick a vest on their dog and claim they are trained/in training. But it's a major munchie prize to have one and munchies are good at laying it on thick.

Some weeks ago I saw two obviously fake servive dogs at the bus terminal. One had a ratty vest that looked homemade and the other was decked out in a lime green vest and boots and was allowed on the bus without a pet carrier. It just looked like a generic cheap dog vest from Amazon. The lady had a matching outfit. I see more and more dogs in vests walking around in malls. All kinds of breeds. So I am now highly sceptical of any service dogs unless the owner is obviously blind. You can thank munchies for that.

That's what I wonder for all these munchies. I have to wonder how they managed to get friends and family to think its totally normal to photograph them in the hospital bed.

If i asked my husband or family to snap a pic during a ct scan, they would definitely make fun of me

I assum they bring along a designated irl asspatter. It seems that many a munchie is capable of convincing family and friends that they are legit sick with all of these horrible illnesses. But they chronical every little thing in pictures instead of just major procedures. An IV bag is not major. Every little booboo or needle prick needs it's own Life magazine In Pictures spread. That screams nothing more to me than attention whoring. It's like they need proof they were there. I have to wonder what doctors say behind the scenes concerning these people.

Finally doctors take her TPN away again. "New meds" means marijuana. Because you can't just get a weedman and smoke recreationally like everyone else in the world.

View attachment 759993

Guesses on her next Dx? I think with the braces and constant pain she's going to try for EDS.

I needed this today. This is amazing.

How did the Doctors not burst out laughing when she claimed she couldn't eat but tripled in size?

I wonder about this all the time with some munchies. The anachans make sense, but how in the world do obese people manage it?
 
Is it getting easier to obtain a service dog now? I know some munchies just stick a vest on their dog and claim they are trained/in training. But it's a major munchie prize to have one and munchies are good at laying it on thick.

It's a mix of extremely permissive laws and a genuine expansion of service dog programs.

A few decades ago when programs started there were very few disabilities that service dogs were actively trained for, mostly guide dogs for blind people but also things like quadriplegia or brittle bones where people were in wheelchairs and needed help doing anything independently. Since then people have recognized that a lot of disabled people can benefit from a dog helping in ways that are not always obvious. They can be trained to smell blood sugar changes in diabetics (much more rare than it is reported, but it does happen) or alert to deadly allergens present, just like they can be trained to sniff out game, bombs, and drugs. They can "ground" kids with autism enough to get through things that would otherwise be really overstimulating for them. They guide people who can see but have PTSD, panic disorders, or disorders that cause confusion and disorientation out of stressful situations that they would otherwise lock up in. They can be trained to get help if something goes wrong or use a life-alert type device to summon 911. It's been a real boon to a lot of people who used to need a human with them 24/7 and used to feel like a burden on their caretakers. The dogs are usually super eager to do everything and get excited when it's time to go out; they think it's just another adventure with their human.

So increased utility is a big part of it. There really are way more genuine, trained service dogs out there for a much larger range of uses and yes, it's becoming much easier to get approved for a program-trained dog. But the ADA is also extremely permissive about what a service dog is and restrictive of what you're allowed to ask a handler about their dog. As long as a dog is behaving there's really no way to know which one is really a service dog and which one is a pet. All you have to do is claim a disability (you don't need to prove it) and that the dog does one task to mitigate it (you also don't have to prove it). And a task can be as simple as standing behind the owner in line at the store so no one gets too close to them, and owners are allowed to train their own dogs.

There are also absolutely private trainers who will train a "service dog" for you as long as you have the cash with no proof of disability. They'll be trained to do real service dog tasks and behave in public, just like any other one, so there's really no difference except the handler's need.

Pinterest with a bunch of spoonie-related boards: Katloosmore

Kat is from York, PA, a grand metropolis out in Pennsyltucky with nothing to do but fake sick. She used to have another instagram, but if it's still around at all, I can't find it. 2014 she started this one which apparently used to be @kat_barfs (classy) to document her journey from skinny cute 23 year old woman who wasn't getting enough attention to morbidly obese genderblob in a wheelchair. She claims to have gastroparesis (lol), POTS, fibromyalgia, overactive bladder, polycystic ovaries, a serious nut allergy, migraines, osteopenia, spinal stenosis, arthritis and more. Is currently looking into EDS, it appears. The apparent trigger for all of this was moving to York from Baltimore followed immediately by a bout of appendicitis in 2014. From what little she says about it, it seems like her apartment in Baltimore was a filth hole full of alcoholics and she left to move back in with the 'rents until she could get a place with her boyfriend.

All she ever posts about is her health and her pets and like most munchies she does not work and no longer has any real friends. Describes herself as a "professional patient and all-around sick person" on Facebook. Ready?

Here is one of the first posts on her 'gram. She's claimed to have just had an appendectomy and bowel resection. that is a drain tube, not a feeding tube, coming out of her nose.

Birthday cake is a smoothie, eating baby foods, humblebrag about weight loss. She never explains what's happened to her, never mentions a diagnosis, but she also doesn't engage in hashtag abuse. She seems to have just been reporting her life to friends and most of her early posts are about trips to nearby Baltimore, moving out on her own, concerts, parties, and her pets. Nothing that would raise alarm bells for me.

DIGS THROUGH HER STOMACH CONTENTS TO FIND THINGS. You know there's a psychiatric finding called the "matchbox sign" where patients who think there are bugs in their skin arrive in the office with a small container full of things they've dug out of their body. Just saying.

Let's see what Kat takes. Gas-Ex. Toramax which is an NSAID, Linzess which is for constipation, Dexilant is a proton pump inhibitor for acid reflux, salt for POTS, coke is actual Coca Cola for flushing clogged lines if you need to, Celexa is an SSRI for depression, whole fuckton of benadryl, more NSAID, and of course a narcotic.

"I'm always an 8/10 and today I'm an 11/10" selfie with sick face. Hospital gives her morphine, tells her to fuck off. She finds out the stuff coming from her tube is an ulcer that's trying to heal and would heal if she would leave it the fuck alone and stop violently suctioning out her stomach contents.

Apparently a doctor realized that at 100 lbs over her target weight she no longer needed TPN. Hickman removed, continues to whine about how faking sick made her fat because she kept eating on TPN. So naturally she can't tolerate her tube feeds and needs another hospital vacation.

Finally doctors take her TPN away again. "New meds" means marijuana. Because you can't just get a weedman and smoke recreationally like everyone else in the world. It has to be related to your special illness. This also ensures she will continue on her trajectory to ALR-tier fatty even without the TPN.

Guesses on her next Dx? I think with the braces and constant pain she's going to try for EDS.
Holy Jesus mother of Munchausen! O__O I loved you before, but I positively bow down in awe on this one. Epic find, A+ for this exceptional OP and exquisitely detailed timeline. Many thanks, brave soul, for wading through this shitshow and parting the waters so we may walk through and observe unscathed.
 
Me, mad at the internet?!‽ Yes. View attachment 760984

Holy shit, I tried to look through this girl's insta and I've never so badly wanted to delete the app. What an insufferable little shit.

Short version for people who value their time more than I do:
Early 20s
spergs out about gender, insists she's not a girl, in a heterosexual relationship, but because she identifies as a non-binary lesbian and her man identifies as not a man, she claims to be "queer" and that she speaks for the gay and lesbian community.
Claims autism, stimming, playing with fidgets, #flappyhands, etc, but is always in overwhelming environments. Magic earphones cure all.
muh schizophrenia/bpd/bipolar/schizoaffective disorder/dissociation/panic disorder
claims EDS, can't walk need wheelchair.
MCAS, not bothered by smoking or makeup or any other common trigger.
Has irlen syndrome, something that probably does not exist.
E-begs, always has new clothes and makeup from overpriced brands.

I wonder what the crossover rate is with fake spoonies and genderspecials.

She should just work fulltime. That'll cure most of it.
 
Anything fun about this one? Or just your typical EDS/POTS/MCAS/GP Jaquie wannabe?
Pretty much the same EDS-BS but she's going all out. Fundraising $20,000 for a program SD to… pick stuff up for her? I can't imagine what else it would be used for. Munchie points is probably it's main SD task. Talks about getting a wheelchair because we all know how amazing and beneficial it is for your health to decondition your body. She already comes complete with port and saline infusions because drinking water is not as fun as sticking needles in your chest.

Part of the crazy HealthBeMe Webe tribe. If she tried to kiss that dude's ass any harder she'd get stuck half way up his anus.

With that super severe EDS and POTS, this drama kid has also been caught cabaret dancing. As we all know, when you have unstable joints the best thing to do is bounce up and down on one leg while swinging the other in the air (it should be noted here that she often complains about her knees).

She recently made a health update describing how Dr Abdallah did a whole bunch of stuff and decided to say she probably needs a lot of testing because of course she must have all of the ailments so she can be the most webe-y, sickly spoonie that ever walked through the sick person land. This CARDIOLOGIST decided she may have CCI and Chiari (she now likes to occasionally sport a neck brace like all the other cool kids) and also that she might have MCAS because… she’s had some allergies. Ah yes. It all makes complete sense now. Why have allergies, when you can have MCAS? Allergies are so last season.

So yeah. Same old bullshit with a couple of new twists. Haven’t seen anyone convince their parents to put their entire college fund into buying a dog they don’t need. So that’s definitely a first. And she seems to almost be going at old Aubrey speed at the moment with the amount of stuff she’s carrying on about.

⚠️Health Update⚠️
—⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
My first appointment with Abdallah went very well, albeit extremely long, it was worth it. I first had an EKG and then had my Orthostatic Vitals taken while a nurse and I went over my health history and I explained a little more about my issues and concerns. I then had my Echo, which was interesting as the heart ultrasound was done while I was laying on my left side with my left arm beneath the pillow in a “side sleeping” position. I was then laid on my back so they could ultrasound my Celiac Artery and my Carotid in my throat (I think). After that I was brought into an examination room with a couch and exam table. I sat on the couch for a bit before Dr. A (the wife) came in to talk with me.
—⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
She was extremely nice and had me take my shoes and socks off and stand in front of her while she held my hands and we talked. She showed me how severe my blood pooling was by having me raise one hand above my head for 10 seconds before comparing them. I’d never noticed how purple and swollen my hands and legs got, and I was shocked. She tested my hypermobility, and then examined my neck, remarking on how flexible it was. After pushing on a few things and having me try to swallow, she stated that I needed to be tested for CCI and Chiari. She then went over my symptoms and everything else and told me she also wanted to test me for MCAS given my sudden allergy related issues, as well as possible autoimmune issues given my symptoms. She shook my hands and smiled warmly and went off to type up paperwork, assuring me they’d help me. —⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Now I have 5 days of testing ahead of me including Nerve Conduction Testing, QEEG/NeuroCognitive Testing, QSART, Autonomic Testing, a Stress Test, and a Tilt Table. I have a ton of bloodwork to be done, a 24hr Urine Test, and another 30 day Holter because Dr. A looks at more things than just heart rhythm and rate.

I saw my new PCP today and he was very nice. We discussed all of my health issues, my meds, specialists I was seeing, etc. Currently I’m having issues with low blood sugar, so he’s having me keep a log of my blood sugars, when I start feeling symptomatic after eating, and ordered some blood tests to be done before I see an Endocrinologist. I have my Genetics appointment April 24th, Gynecologist appointment April 25th, Upright MRI May 3rd, and all my Abdallah Testing May 15, 16, 17, 20, and 22 with my follow-up June 7th. So...PHEW. Busy month. Lots of scary testing. I’m handling it alright.
 
Just spent 15 minutes on r/illnessfakers. Is everyone there a munchie trying to one-up whoever is under discussion? Whoever would've guessed that munchies, when not munching, love to expose their compadres--or maybe just have a socially acceptable place to drone on about how Real Patients Like Me are definitely The Real Victims Here OK Guys!?!

Edit: maybe Roald Dahl's school nurse was onto something with the idea that anyone who claims to be sick gets a shot glass of caster oil, no exceptions

Irlen Syndrome isn’t real;


Jeez she is indeed insufferable. Some choice loons in her comments as well. Bring back National Service, that’ll sort them out.

Yeah i didn't think it was. One of the other munchies claimed to have it and to need special glasses but I can't remember which one now. Amanda/Ren maybe. She's tried on every diagnosis she's ever heard the name of.

The thing that gets me is these women have no real fear of anything. They don't think they're going to kill themselves through their unnecessary medical interventions, they don't worry about not being able to pay rent because their parents will bail them out if their tugboat isn't enough, if they're low on cash they run a GoFundMe. The kind of things that make normal adults functional if only to stay alive do not exist for them.

And if you think that's bad /r/truechronicillness is a sub they made as a blogging containment unit. It's nothing but cluster bs having a pity party.

Since you're the master of intros. Wanna do one for NinaJean? Christ would I like a good discussion about the founder of r/illnessfakers in all of her insanity. But alas. I am way too lazy.

edit: I retract that. I'm too fucking lazy to read before I speak. Just euthanize me already.
