2025.01.31 02:01 Throw-away2927 My mother has been falsely accused of Factitious Disorder Imposed on Another (FDIA, previously known as Munchausen Syndrome) by Healthcare Professional(s)
I’m sorry I don’t have a clear legal question but I was told to come here by medical advice Canada as it doesn’t seem like a medical question. I guess the main question is, do we need a lawyer? What do we do, and what are our options for going about this situation?
I’m 17M. Doctors will no longer prescribe me my current dosage of my primary chronic pain medication (the NSAID Celecoxib 400 mg/day) to manage my flare-up, because they believe my mom is drugging me with it and that it’s unnecessary medication. They wrote this up in my file (I do not know if they also wrote ME up for “seeking unnecessary medication”). I live in Ontario, Canada. I'm already struggling to manage my flare-up (can’t attend school, tough to get to current doctor’s appointments, difficulty showering) and just generally don’t know what to do.
I’ve had chronic pain since around 12 years old. It began as right shoulder pain we thought nothing of, eventually progressing into back pain. We found out I had scoliosis and I received a hard brace as per Sick Kids’ Toronto recommendation, which I wore for around 2 years. They then determined my spine had fused and finished growing, so I was no longer at risk of having my scoliosis worsen, so I got off the brace. I had back pain and anxiety at this time, and was being treated for all this, but the back pain wasn’t too severe so the painkillers were pretty mild.
At 14, I had a pain flare-up in my wrists. It was likely due to COVID and lots of typing for virtual school, so I basically got treated for carpal tunnel and it improved back to normal after a month or 2. Not sure if it was really carpal tunnel or just some other overuse-related wrist injury, but I’ve been fine since.
At 15 I came out as trans (ftm) and began transitioning, eventually going on testosterone, which I’ve been on for a year now. I’m only mentioning this because I don’t know if health professionals had noticed this, and somehow thought my mom was forcing me to undergo this as well as other medical procedures? This part isn’t so important, but the next part is:
So about a year ago it all went to crap. We went to Jamaica for vacation, everything was good and I was very physically active there, but when I got back I found myself in severe full-body pain. My family and I figured it was some virus I caught on vacation, like a flu. I basically spent a month laying on the couch, with flu-like symptoms of severe full body aches. I also had this shooting numbness feeling throughout my limbs.
Problem was, it didn’t get better. We underwent every test under the sun. Stool sample, urine sample, blood tests (including deficiency tests), nothing showed. I saw a ton of doctors who ruled out every condition known to man. Not Arthritis, no infection/virus found, full body MRI (including brain), nothing neurological, I was just diagnosed with “Chronic widespread pain”, described to me as “not fibromyalgia, but fibromyalgia-like symptoms”.
I was in so much pain my parents wheeled me into emergency twice, I tried a ton of painkillers (OTC) and only Advil and Aleve worked well, but they were very harsh on my stomach. I was taking the maximum dosage of everything OTC I could take simultaneously. Finally, we tried celecoxib, which was the holy grail. My body reacted to it like Advil, but it was longer lasting, with less stomach upset. I went on 200 mg/day, the pain improved but was still pretty bad, and finally a neurologist issued us 400 mg per day. I was around 15-16. She said if I couldn’t shower or attend school when taking less than 400 mg, then I needed the 400 mg.
It worked and I began lots of physiotherapy. I had no muscular issues but it’s the standard treatment for chronic pain and if it had a chance of improving my symptoms I was gonna do it. I became very diligent with my health, diet and nutrition, working out very regularly (cardio + strength training), cutting my course load because sitting and standing triggered my pain, stretching, following physio recommendations, etc. With the 400 mg celecoxib my pain was low enough to be active, and I could even eventually drop it to 300 mg and sometimes 200 mg per day. My doctors wanted me on 200 mg max, eventually, as an ideal goal. I built visible muscle and my physical ability was good. I was still trying other pain meds because doctors wanted to see if that would allow me to decrease the dosage to 200 mg of celecoxib per day, which they saw as more sustainable long-term. These other medications targeted mostly nerve pain (antidepressant-family drugs), but nothing really worked nearly as well as the celecoxib.
Then, early December 2024, we went to Sick Kids Chronic Pain Clinic again, but they said they were not comfortable with me on 400 mg of celecoxib per day (despite the fact this is the middle of a flare-up). They told me to switch to gabapentin, so we did. Late December 2024, we went on vacation again. I was able to keep up on vacation, but there was lots of walking, standing, sitting on planes, etc. We got home and I crashed. I had a huge pain flare-up in my whole body. My back was the worst. I laid on the couch and couldn’t move. I couldn’t go back to school to write my exams.
I went back to 400 mg celecoxib per day, which allowed me to shower, stretch, walk a little, and move around the house. I couldn’t really “exercise” but at least I was no longer bedridden. They said the neurologist had no business prescribing that to me. We tried some other meds (more gabapentin, increasing my anxiety meds because it can also treat chronic pain, topical creams) but nothing worked. The celecoxib allowed me to be somewhat functional.
Suddenly, though, no one wanted to prescribe me 400 mg celecoxib. No one at the Sick Kids pain clinic, not the family doctor. They offered me physio that I tried, but could not do. They wanted me to talk to a psychiatrist, and I did, explaining that I actually used to talk consistently with a social worker but stopped because she told me my problems seemed mostly medical, not anxiety-related, and she didn’t feel comfortable talking to me about that. We couldn’t understand why no one wanted to prescribe me the pain medicine.
Eventually, Sick Kids deferred us to another pain clinic, where the doctor finally told us he would prescribe the amount, writing that I needed “200 mg of celecoxib BID (bidaily) during a flare-up” for the family doctor to prescribe.
She won’t. She wanted clarification on what the length of a “flare-up” was. She said she would call my mother today (who goes to all my appointments with me since I am underage and my dad works full time.
As it would turn out, SICK KIDS had WRITTEN UP my mother for “FORCING MEDICINE” on me, and PUT IT IN MY MEDICAL NOTES. We don’t know when this happened, the family doctor just told my mother on the call today, and that is the reason she will not prescribe the 400 mg celecoxib. My mom was furious and explained that I was in pain, to the point of suicidal ideation (probably a bad move on her part) and she’s probably even LESS inclined to prescribe it to me now.
Additionally, while the doctor at the pain clinic did agree to prescribe me 400 mg daily, he wants me off ASAP. He said ideally a month. Last time it took me SEVERAL months of consistent physical training before I could decrease the dosage to 200 mg (what he wants).
And also, apparently 400 mg celecoxib is actually a pretty standard dosage, and our pharmacist told us he has plenty of patients who have been on that dose for MUCH LONGER? So, the only reason they won’t give it to me is because my file is written up for seeking unneeded medicine.
When my mom brought this up on the call, the family doctor simply said pharmacists are not doctors.
I live in Ontario where it is impossible to find another family doctor due to a critical shortage (and we are going through a healthcare crisis right now).
I honestly don’t know what to do now. How do I clear this up with the system so that it doesn’t say in my file I’m seeking medicine I don’t need? (PS: Celecoxib isn’t an opioid or anything, it’s an NSAID like Advil so I don’t know why we got written up in the first place. Sick Kids said they were worried it’ll wreck my stomach lining but I’m on Lansoprazole to combat that, and it’s better for my stomach than me taking the equivalent dose of Advil).
We’re trying so many new medications + changing dosage, but nothing else has worked so far and I always have had to fall back on celecoxib 400 mg when the pain gets high. I feel like they’re taking it away before we’ve found an alternative and just don’t care if I suffer in the meantime. My only other option is to take the maximum dosage of Advil which, while it works, makes me throw up frequently.
Am I screwed until I turn 18? Until then, they will assume my mother is forcing me to take medicine and won’t prescribe me anything. I’ll have to put everything on hold— schooling, university applications… We could get my dad to go to all my appointments? But he works, so that’s difficult.
The diagnosis is also not very clear. Like, I don’t have a name for the condition, we were never given one. The only physical thing that shows is, I guess the severe tightness and knotting of my muscles and irritation of my back joints, that my chiropractor (who also has a bunch of physiotherapy certificates I think) can feel.
Besides, how do I even clear this up? Do I need to find a psychiatrist? I can’t find a new family doctor right now, we’ve tried. I could ask the gender clinic, but my doctor there already said he doesn’t deal with chronic pain so he won’t prescribe any pain meds whatsoever.
Even when I turn 18, what if they still don’t trust me? I really don’t know how I’m going to survive because I’m in so much pain right now, just the thought of having to wait any longer really makes me feel hopeless.
Tldr; 17M, need a prescription that won’t get filled because my mom got (wrongfully) written up for Munchausen Syndrome, until then I’m suffering in pain, so how can I clear it?

In the process of doing a compassionate reassignment, a bit confused on what forms have to be done. I know for sure the DA Form 3739. But do I also have to do the DA form 4187? This is for a medical reassignment.

2025.01.31 02:01 uJhiteLiger Dragon Pearl Jasmine
I got this Dragon Pearl Jasmine Supreme from Red Blossom Tea Co. and just wanted to share with you guys. I never really understood the appeal of tea much until I found out about this subreddit and started trying loose leaf tea. Started with Yunnan Sourcing, then tried Dragonwell from Verdant (still my favorite tea of all time currently), got some Oolong recently from Mountain Tea Company, and then tried a Green Jasmine bag tea at work which led to trying to find really good Jasmine tea. I’m around SF bay area so Red Blossom is less than an hour away and wanted to try their stuff to see if it’s worth the price. At $29 for 2oz this stuff is pretty expensive, but I can definitely see myself getting it again, just not frequently. It’s a very nice sweet jasmine treat, and they actually use White Tea instead of Green tea, which I love. Overall I give this tea an 8.5/10 and if you love jasmine (I like jasmine, maybe not love) then it would be a 10/10. I’m trying to expand my taste and knowledge of teas, so this was a great purchase. submitted by uJhiteLiger to tea [link] [comments] |

2025.01.31 02:01 Eithrotaur Very weird question from somebody that knows noting about wine.
Hello everyone! So, I'm a person who knows nothing about wine and in fact can't stand the taste of the stuff, but my lack of good taste aside, I'm a writer, and recently I've been writing some stuff about vampires. Now, in my stories the characters are gonna be attending a lot of high class vampire parties where the main item on the menu is blood. But, I wanna have some fun, and though this isn't a remotely original idea I wanna see what I can do with it anyway, as such, I'm writing up a character who is essentially a vampire sommelier who serves and recommends bloods for the main characters to partake in. I want this character to be somewhat of an expert, with very strong opinions and lots of knowledge about blood in all its variety. After all, to a vampire the differences in a person's race, health, gender, age, diet, lifestyle and a whole host of other factors would probably make lots of different blood taste very different, same as how completely different factors effect the taste of a wine. So, to add depth to this part of the story I want to draw from the actual science of wine and wine tasting, but again, I know nothing about wine, thus, I've decided to go to the internet and its experts.
So, to finally get to the point of my question, what goes into recommending and pairing wine, and what sort of language would you use when describing that sort of thing if you were an trying to recommend a type of wine to a guest or customer?

2025.01.31 02:01 Stacyxays Which bags to bring/wear on girls trip in Boston?!
I feel like this is almost an embarrassing question but hopefully at least you all will understand 😊 I'm going to Boston in a few weeks (last weekend of February) with another girlfriend for my best friend's birthday. I sure we'll go out to a nice dinner once or twice, might go out to some bars once or twice, might go shopping, you get the idea. Out of all my bags, I'm trying to decide which ones (based on style/color) would be best to bring/use for that time of year in Boston. Everyday bag that can carry all of my things: Either: -brown Prada large Aimee bag -black Givenchy small Antigona bag Going out to bars or dinner bag: -Black YSL clutch / wristlet -YSL Lou camera bag in Crema Soft color -Strathberry bottle green mini East West bag -Gucci Ophidia small shoulder bag -Celine nano luggage in blue/black/gray I probably don't want to bring more than three, four bags at the absolute most. Help!! Thank you in advance!! 👜🛍️🧳 submitted by Stacyxays to handbags [link] [comments] |
2025.01.31 02:01 BRANTEC_ Brand new APC UPS Gives off smell when on battery
Hey guys so I just got a new APC UPS BGM1500B-US and tested the battery by unplugging the unit and the fans turned on and it gave off some smell. It’s hard to describe but it was kinda like paint? Reminds me of art class. It wasn’t strong neither. I smelled it from 1.5 feet away but didn’t smell up the room. Is this type of smell normal?
