[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 680435, member: 1550"] There is a disorder I learned about years ago when I worked in a hospital called Manchusen's Syndrome. I am not at all suggesting your daughter has it, but it does exist. These people LIKE the attention they get when they are sick so they fake getting sick, including sometimes doing harmful things to themselves so that they will baffle the doctors and deal with the attention of getting tests...some even have exploratory surgery. I worked in Admitting and we had a list with pictures of people who were flagged as having Manchusens and we were to contact a superior if one came in. These are just my thoughts and for your awareness, although she probably is not this bad off. Hugs and try to have a peaceful day and stay away from her calls and texts if you don't feel like communicating right now. It's your life too...you have a right to feel peaceful. [/QUOTE]
