Someone with the username "fluidsandfun" came into IFGW tonight to complain about how her friend was skinwalking her and asking for advice on what to do. After getting many advices, including "don't post about your health on social media," "cut her off," and "ignore her," followed by "dude, shut up, you are sharing too much information," she continued to post dramatic paragraphs about her really real struggle with illness and the terrible burden of another liar copying her lies.
So like I do, I had to see what diseases this one claimed to have for real, not like all those fakers she mocks:
I inherited a genetic connective tissue disease from my fathers side and a load of lovely autoimmune conditions from my moms. How did this mash up? Let’s see.
Intestinal failure: stomach & intestines paralyzed -GJ Feeding tube dependent: feed formula into my intestine, and drain my stomach through a tube as just my own saliva sitting in my stomach will lead to vomiting (yum)
Full intestinal failure: feeding into my intestine was excruciating and made me even sicker so I’m fed through my veins (central line) I have a central line in my chest that is like a semi-permanent IV. The tubing goes into the main vein in my heart, continues through the jugular vein and then exists my chest with two end points (Double Lumen Hickman). My TPN (nutrition) goes through it as does my medications, fluids and treatments
My immune system is attacking my autonomic nervous system causing disease and issues with every automatic process in my body (Autoimmune Autonomic Ganglioneropathy)
I have a severe immune deficiency aka I have no immune system, more fragile than a newborn baby. Every 4 weeks I get a transfusion of IgG that takes thousands of blood donors to make a single dose. (Chronic Variable Immune Deficiency)
My body destroys red blood cells faster than they can be made so I depend on blood transfusions (Hemolytic Anemia)
Joint dislocations, I put myself back together in the morning and I’m dead serious. Subluxing my fingers just typing. I’m weirdly flexible and stretchy and have a higher risk of dying because my vascular system is made of shitty tissue (Ehlers Danlos Syndrome - Classic, Hypermobile, Vascular)
The cells that cause allergic reactions are out of control in my body, I have full on Epi-pen anaphylaxis to temperatures, pain, emotion, scents & hormones (Mast Cell Activation Syndrome)
I continuously have IV Benadryl flowing into my body because without it I would be in constant allergic reactions and anaphylaxis
The most painful disease known to science that has my nerves acting like there is a severe injury in my arm. It’s nicknamed the suicide disease and I know all too well why, my nerves are just nuts (Complex Regional Pain Syndrome)
So. Who wants to date me? (Don’t try if you don’t have good insurance lolllll) I’m a bit broken-ish. But if this isn’t winning the genetic lottery I don’t know what is!
When asked how she could possibly have three different kinds of EDS, she went "oh uh, I only had two! Just two!" followed by "well we weren't sure at the time, I never said I had all three just that we suspected them!"
And of course, all the ones I didn't ask them about were real~!
I archived their history for further perusal but I just could not keep this one to myself right now. Three kinds of EDS! Most painful disease known to science! "Suicide disease!" TPN! Central line! Immune system weaker than that of a newborn! Christ, I love these fucking oversharing pathological liars constantly trying to one-up each other.
