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

I watched one where she was going through her refrigerator (she won't even allow her dad's food touch her food (that he buys). Anyway, she stated that she bought the wrong something or other and that it was made with animal products of some sort and instead of saying she will let her dad eat it she said "I'm going to ask a friend if she wants it."

I commented on that basically calling her out for not offering it to the man who provided the cash to purchase it and I'm pretty sure she blocked me from her channel. lol.

Lol must have missed that one. How does one even develop that level of entitlement? It's really funny that her vegan ethics went right the fuck out the window when she had to eat eggs for a gastric emptying study.
 
So JanJan has uploaded another video to her Youtube today. I'm guessing she's gonna start uploading much more frequently because of her insurance or lack of insurance more like it. Anyway, it was a vlog of her niece's graduation from kindergarten (I'm not posting a link because it's pretty much just the children for the whole video and her woo hooing very loudly).
 
My first thought was oh fuck here we go. But I was reviewing the diagnostic criteria and it’s hard core. I’d say a solid 90% of the idiots claiming POTS right now on sickstagram wouldn’t even meet it- and NIH doesn’t do subjective criteria “it’s different for everyone” bullshit that goes around social media. It may even help the small percentage of people with actual POTS who haven’t been able to improve on normal standard interventions like compression, ORAL hydration, meds, etc.

I could also be extremely naive & optimistic- could open the floodgates for plasma being used for twitching eyes and hypermobile pinkies.
 
Tubby is home and she’s STAYING! Until the next time she’s bored, or she gets tired of having a PICC and wants a Hickman again...

Dani had her appointment with Penn and those mean doctors didn’t immediately admit her, give her IVIG, TPN, a port, or anything else she wanted, so now she’s going to starve herself.

I did notice that dumpster fire thread in IFAftermath is gone and one of the redditors deleted their account- they claimed to post here but I don't remember who they said they were.

ETA: um, IF now has a new mod and they booted the blogging nazi. and they rebanned everyone who was banned. hm.

On a related note, I've been trying to poke into @bendwithitrockwithit Dani Nicole, Ally's friend, but I can't find shit on her past her IG and Youtube (she only has one video left up on there, the rest are all private). She's got a looooong list of claims that she doesn't talk about until you look at her IG highlights- Chronic Lyme that she claims was diagnosed at 4 (!), Nutcracker Syndrome (a weird renal blood supply thing?), Intracranial Hypertension, demyelinating neuropathy, MALS, MCAS, hEDS, POTS. She has a port, gets saline at least 3-4 times a week, IVIG, IV benny.... I really can't get a read on her. I can't decide if she's just genuinely really fucked up and OTT about it or fakey faking. Just took a bunch of screenshots....




What do you all think? Faker or just real dramatic? I thought she was just OTT but aligning herself with Ally and the munchie trifecta of POTS/EDS/MALS with lyme makes me go ????

Good God I have been trying to put together a timeline on her for a long time but I’m just not good at keeping receipts. She deletes a LOT and tends to limit details to stories. She’s also scrubbed a lot of her YouTube. Her personal insta USED to be public but recently has gone private with the baiting “accepting all follower requests for next 24 hours” that many of them are doing. @dani_fusaro on IG is her private.

Her newest diagnostic claim is CIDP. Something she has NEVER ONCE mentioned and then. Poof! The way this came about was she posted a question box during her THREE DAY (???) IVIG treatment she does TWICE A MONTH (???) - someone asked what do you use IVIG for? She answered “insurance covers it for Chronic Inflammatory Demylineating Polyneuropathy But my Doctor is using it for MCAS treatment.” Ummmm no. Hell no. CIDP requires a lot of NOT FUN testing that she’d sure as hell have shared and it can be progressive and it doesn’t follow an IVIG dosage of that nature. (Yes it uses IVIG just not the odd amounts she’s taking for MCAS?!)

That’s just an example of random things she sliiiiiiides into her stories that most people just don’t catch. She jumped from Lyme to EDS super fast and sees all the popular doctors (some concierge some not). She’s also in that sick clique on Insta that promote each other and recently did a Live with TFT where TFT implied Dani helped her acccess her Port (?!) and they appeared to be trading/sharing medications like zofran and Benedryl which is just disturbing and an accident waiting to happen.

She also has recently done a lot of posts/stories with Ally (TFT) with one that had people wondering if they were dating. Which... wow... could be strategic, possibly a whole queer chronic illness power couple goals, I have NO IDEA. Or they could just be competitive besties- that’s always fun to watch the munchies outsick each other.
 
What's the allure with IV benydryl? Does it make you high? I would think it would just knock you out.
Yes, you get a sort of rush with it. It's also a potentiator, which means it amplifies the effects of other drugs. So when these munchies get their precious iv benny pushed with something like an opiate, you get an extremely euphoric, and addicting sensation.

Edit: If you push through the sleepiness, high doses of diphenhydramine, the active ingredient in benedryl, can also make you hallucinate, which I guess some people might enjoy.
 
That was kind of my line of thought too, she really doesn't have many IG posts but all this stuff about lyme and Nutcracker bullshit is tucked away in her story highlights where not many people will notice it.

I wish there was a way to pull up old IG posts because she was so hardcore into chronic Lyme and now she acts like it never happened. I also think she got the Nutcracker syndrome from another CI insta. If you look at her highlights, dani’s are from 17 weeks ago and the other girl’s (who just had major surgery to fix it) are from 24 weeks ago.

The other person was telling the truth to the best of your knowledge? Or two munchies latched on to a somewhat obscure vascular condition at the same time?


Sarah-Jean's latest masterpiece: The Day I Swore My Heart Fell Out of my Chest
-Pets glass tchotchkes in front of her dad, cannot stop because OCD. Evil Dad wasn't supportive. OCD diagnosed as a child. Claims obsession with cleanliness and order.
-Nosebleeds, already preparing herself for another 21 days of it because apparently nosebleeds are cyclic, like getting your period. Stop scratching the inside of your nose and making it bleed, Sarah. Speaks with a bloody snotrag on her face for half the video.
-Getting ready for Curefest, an event to cure childhood cancer that is held in Washington DC in late September.
-Evil Dad is taking care of her dogs, also moving out of his bedroom so she can have it.
-Business cards came in the mail. Very clearly gives out her phone number, 612-636-3941. A hundred cards might not be enough because she intends to give them out at Curefest.
-Wommart run for freezie pops. This bitch constantly stares at herself in the view finder god damn.
Screen Shot 2019-07-04 at 03.27.11.png
-Mad because Wommart didn't have the ones that are already frozen so now she has to wait for her totally environmentally unfriendly plastic-wrapped frozen snack. Buy reusable molds? Not this earth warrior.
-Nurse is coming to discuss IV Benny
-Ordering shit online
-Jump cut to Blair Witch style walking through the woods crying and saying "I'm so scared right now". Yoda, her tortoise, has gone missing because her Evil Dad let him outside and didn't tell her. He's a rare animal so she's afraid people will steal him or he'll get hit by a car. Cries a lot. She's so angry at Evil Dad. Jesus christ take care of your own animals.

I am downright salty about this individual.

It can also kill patients if you dose that high. Especially if you're combining it with other CNS depressants.

Munchies are just looking for the DPH sedation because it definitely feels like it "works" compared to shit like loratadine.
 

Janjan update. I haven't had a chance to watch it yet.

Hah. "Driving with chronic illnesses" isn't video worthy you loon. You just sit and go places. I've seen people without feet drive with few modifications, and make far less of a spectacle of it.

I love that she's smacking on gum like a 47 year old cab driver, too. Not obnoxious at all.

"My doctors recommend me not driving." Sure they do. Because if they didn't, then she'd have people suggesting she sign up to be an UBER driver or something and actually be a contributing member of society in some way.

Dani had her appointment with Penn and those mean doctors didn’t immediately admit her, give her IVIG, TPN, a port, or anything else she wanted, so now she’s going to starve herself.

Her docs must know she's a fucking death fat. Needs to just bring out the feeder funnel already and do it with the gut pics to earn some money.

Poor Dani 😏 she should switch with the death fat. Even out in the middle lol

It can give a rush when pushed fast. Potentiates other meds like opiates, bigger high.

Evil dad makes me think of Angry dad from the Simpson's.
Nasty ass snot rag, bet it's been used a dozen times already.
She's going to end up with coke nose.
