Do we still have the old friend or acquaintance on here? I would love to hear your input on this! I hope you're still out there

Hi yes I'm still here but I've been busy and don't have much to add. She is the embodiment of a squeaky wheel getting grease.

What I love is that she posted that list of questions to ask Penn at her motility appointment and one of them was about separate G&J tubes. The comment immediately after was "Why do you need separate tubes if you don't have any problems with yours flipping?" Two days later she announced her tube flipped. Oh god, try to be a little more obvious next time, Dani.

She's also now showing off her RA meds because of us.

I am hoping that Penn's motility specialist sees through her even though that hospital are the ones who gave her TPN. Her GES over at temple was moderately delayed for solids but fine for liquids and that was after dicking around with her body to ensure a delay. But who knows? I never thought she'd get the Gj to begin with and I definitely never thought she'd be on TPN.

Got her post back guys
Edit: Also people thinking the halal thread should just happen don’t worry watch this space.

Well here's a sample of some her posts on KF. I had more of her posting about her schizophrenia but she seems to have deleted them too.

Spoiler

Posts from today and the last few days are all about having her wisdom teeth removed.




This one was my favorite out of these particular posts

Communion wafer stuck in the wound and giving her an infection Luh MAO

She hates the NHS and makes completely ridiculous claims about the system like they don't treat asthma and wisdom teeth removal is not a regular thing. (She had impacted wisdom teeth, it's not the standard removal and requires surgery, the tooth gets cut into four and removed piece by piece from the gum. You need stitches afterwards and not everyone gets the stitches that dissolve, it is very painful getting the stitches removed, but it's also a very common procedure, just by pure coincidence Nick Rackets showed a GFM for someone in the chat who needed this kind of extraction on his stream last night)





Lol she has a chew toy like Autie


Mental illness posts, but lets not forget her blog post shared to the thread earlier pontificating about how mental illness doesn't exist and pysch meds and doctors are all crap.




Oh and remember when she popped in the thread just to sperg about Lyrica?

 

[dopedodo]

If she can't open her door by her self how is she

A) safe to live alone?

B) going to get her life saving Kate farms in the house when it arrives?

This whole thing read like an exercise in learned helplessness.

S-J uploaded another video last night but I haven’t had it in me to even watch. She still thinks it’s July (unless she’s doing the European date thing, but since she has the IQ of a gnat I really doubt it).

I'm a Jew, so what do I know, but I'm pretty sure it's frowned upon to say "fucking" and "communion wafer" in the same sentence.

Fnd is a real thing

Sure, “functional neurological disorder” is a real thing. But it’s basically a Conversion Disorder (sometimes malingering). This bish needs CBT, not Kate Farms.

Spoiler: FND sperg from low-level medfag

From NORD:

FND is a condition at the interface between the specialties of neurology and psychiatry...Specialized types of physiotherapy and CBT have been developed for FND. Other therapies such as speech therapy and occupational therapy may also have a role depending on the symptoms.

Popular theorizing currently says FND happens kinda like how CRP happens, but with neuro communication instead of nerve pain recognition. So FND supposedly occurs when neuro communication gets “stuck” in a bad loop or overreacts to minor stimuli... however, despite its popularity, this theory lacks medical research to back it as FND is famous for its inconsistency in functional testing (hm, just like CD). Little seperates it from Conversion Disorder aside from the possible lack of an inciting trauma (though many cases do have an inciting trauma, so ok), the presence of “positive symptoms” rather than only exclusion testing (this can occur in CD also), and the willingness of neuro docs/NPs to take money to treat it & prescribe symptom control meds. Like Conversion Disorders, it is reversible with appropriate application of the only proven effective treatment regime: CBT with physical & occupational therapy.

Since Conversion Disorders are most successfully treated when the pt symptoms are consistently validated as real experiences, various Functional Disorders are sometimes diagnosed when a non-psych specialist wants to retain a pt or the pt responds poorly to the prospect of psych oversight.

FND as a diagnosis isn’t controversial exactly (mainly due to a dovetail between monied patient advocates, neuro professionals looking to bank, & psych professionals fed up with how stigma makes CDs hard to treat) but delineating it as something other than a kind of Conversion Disorder is really just a syntactical argument. The symptoms are produced psychogenically, as in CD, & the only actual medical delineation between FND & CD is that FND doesn’t meet the DSM criteria for CD (even FND-positive pros would argue this is by design, not medical necessity). In fact, in the US, billing for FND treatment is coded with the ICD psych section under Conversion Disorders.

Totally OT but I love the word aubergine and if it wouldn't make me sound like a total douche here I'd use it. Eggplant just sounds so crude in comparison.

I'm a Jew, so what do I know, but I'm pretty sure it's frowned upon to say "fucking" and "communion wafer" in the same sentence.

Also somewhat off-topic. I can't find the name of the specific pathogen but there's some kind of mold that sometimes grows on communion wafers. Most people that ingest it are fine. However they give communion to people as part of Last Rites when possible. This is a blessing given to the terminally ill, right before death. But they really err on the side of caution with when it's given because, well, it's better to give the blessing and have them survive/recover than to have them die without it (and if they do recover after last rites it's often considered a miracle, of course.) The problem is when someone with a severely compromised system eats one of the infected host they get this opportunistic fungal infection and it kills them.

There's also a kind of yeast that makes the host "bleed" a red sticky mold-sludge and the church always decides this is a miracle instead of gross as hell.

Either of these cases would be an appropriate time to say "fucking communion wafer". As in "the priest fed my dying father a fucking communion wafer covered in mold" or "all these pilgrims are double-parking on my street over a fucking communion wafer.'

...I'm not catholic I just like the sp00ky death fetish they have.

edit: To clarify I mean the fungal infection from the communion wafer kills them or severely sickens them when they might otherwise have survived whatever was killing them. Gee whiz. I sat through a paper session on it at a conference and one of the specific cases brought up was a kid who had some disease or other and was going in for a transplant and had communion before the surgery that ended up infecting them with this horrific opportunistic infection. I can't remember the exact circumstances, sorry.

Yes this is all correct. By that it's a "real thing", I simply meant, that it's real symptoms just caused by the brain usually because of stress or trauma. (your brain is hugely capable of making any symptom you believe to have true, it's kinda amazing). So yet i wouldn't consider it a "chronic illness" as solving the underlying emotional or mental cause would fix it, conversion disorder is still not munchausens as it is an illness with origin.

But hers is completely on the muchausem side of ridiculous and if they suspected fnd or CD she would be in therapy not just laying at home bitching about how she is basically a quadrapalegic with speech issues while instead she should be living with family and getting therapy to get over it. She acts like there's no hope but for her to lay in bed and not move til she dies. She should be improving and getting on with her life not getting worse and making sure everyone has to fawn over her... so I think the doctor is spot on with her "faking".

What's interesting is that she used to say she had conversion disorder up until maybe a year ago? No mention of it anymore, only mentions FND

Probably because fnd sounds more serious without the negative connotations. Much like people use myalgic encephalitis now instead of chronic fatigue syndrome... Just cause it sounds more official doesn't mean it is...

another masterpiece from SJ

-Her fan is broken. She tried with all her might to fix it but alas! She may have broken it by spray painting it.
-Struggling with sleeping because she's overheating, can't afford a fan which is one of the most needed things for her when she's sleeping
-Waters some plants
-New pump for her IV fluids. Can barely hear what she's saying because all you can hear is the packaging.
-Shows the replacement cost of $2400 and pretends to scream. Yes, Sarah-jean, that is a small small fraction of what you cost the people who actually work and pay taxes.
-Saline comes in. "Rudely interrupted" by this delivery and decides to just leave the box and go do something else.
-Had "the little girl, not little girl, she's about to be 15" paint her studio for her. Doesn't explain who this child is.
-Drops this girl off, her parents summon her back for alcohol which, of course, she accepts.
-EvilDad puts all her saline supplies in the fridge while she's fucking around
-Has been complaining about bandages, got some Sorbaview shields her home healthcare didn't want to send her anymore because too expensive.
-Irons her ugly zebrastrong care package logo onto a teeshirt. Despite her "OCD" it is crooked.
-Been purging throwing up again tonight even though she's just relaxing and watching movies. She felt dizzy and drugged, felt like she was going to pass out, had to poopies, nawrshus, vomiting. Seriously this sounds like what happens when you take above the recommended dose of Dulcolax.
-Going to bed early because of this.

Morgan the CSF looks like dried up glue gun you know when it’s stretchy and as kids you’d pretend it was a bogie. that would also account for how she could get a photo I think that would be super hard to get a picture like that of snot even.

greatttttt topic

I would also like to add I have mad respect for diary of a munchies kid. At the end of the day we sit here ripping into them. She’s the only one that will openly admit to it and does appear to be trying to change. Plus looks like she gets people to do her questions which are educational rather than other questions. Anyway must be really hard to be so open online especially when there is places like this.

No matter what I give her props and we don’t say that here

She vagueposts too much. Never actually says anything about the munchie side of things and just spends her life posting about how she's a munchie but her condishuns are sooper reel.

 

[PootPoot2]

She said in one of her 272733 q&as not long ago she’s 200 pounds (thanks /r/if for posting every detail of her life). Now she’s taking fruit snacks and other things for her “dropping blood sugar” guessing that’s going up. her and Kat can do a race to the biggest fat ass.

Oh my stars and garters, I know Ren is IF’s low-hanging fruit snack, but this post from the booboo bus after being Baker Acted is too much for my heart to handle alone, kiwis...

This poster is actually my new fave. Finally a sensible poster in there.

I don't know, the article includes actual scans which is very unmunchie like.

Anybody with more knowledge want to weigh in?

 

[Otterly]

Anybody with more knowledge want to weigh in?

With the massive glaring caveat that I am not a neurologist and brains are t my area, yes.

Those scans are insufficient to tell, in short. The one with the red circle does look like there’s an increased distance between C1 and C2, but if you look at the spinal processes on each side it’s clear that the slice is at an angle. So on that one image alone I don’t think you can take a decent measurement. The measurement I think you’d want is an axial scan - that’s looking straight down into those two vertebrae and seeing if they’re offset against each other. Think of balling your fists, placing one on top of the other and twisting them.

The second scan also isn’t the one you’d use for normal pressure hydrocephalus- again you’d want a slice horizontally through the ventricles in the centre of the head and to be looking down on that slice. I don’t see any Chiari and I don’t see any brainstorm compression either.

Absolutely happy to be told I’m talking bollocks here - brains aren’t something I ‘do.’

Lmao at the CSF leak though Morgan has though. CSF is watery, dumbass. It also has a very specific sweet smell. And the reason you’re shitting blood, Morgan, is that you took a metric fuckton of laxatives. I’m tempted but not quite tempted enough to look at the photos. If it’s not haemorrhage amounts of red or coffee grounds black then it’s likely she’s just ripped something a bit. Enjoy your anal fissure!
