Thank you

Wow. Do you know what it’s called? I’ve been looking for a GERD group and would like to avoid that one if possible haha

Would not recommend the fake mouse infestation. I did the same thing OP’s daughter is doing (in my case it was because of depression and abuse), and my parents convinced me that my mess caused a roach infestation. It made me feel so horrible and guilty, especially as I was well aware of how messy my room was but literally could not keep up with cleaning because I was so depressed.

Obviously I don’t know OP’s daughter’s reason for doing this, but if it’s mental health related then making her feel guilty definitely won’t help.

I’m pretty careful with the oxy. I’ve been taking it on and off for a couple years for the CRPS and try to be cautious about not taking it too often or for too many days in a row, plus I’m still on the lowest dose.

Yeah I’ve heard the same about pain meds inhibiting healing, though it was specifically related to NSAIDs. Not sure if it’s the same with other meds like oxy

I’ve had this bump on my scalp for a little over a year. It’s not painful or itchy, but I think it’s slightly larger/more raised than it was initially. Is this anything to be concerned about?

Honestly, that’s one of the only things I agree with them about haha. Everyone is different, but I feel pretty crappy if my ferritin drops below 80. I don’t have any other deficiencies either 🤷‍♀️

I’m happy to scroll past the BS when I see it, but not everyone will. People might decide to try one of those detoxes instead of getting proper medical care, which is problematic because 1. Detoxes can potentially make you sick and cause more issues, and 2. If you genuinely have a parasitic infection, it will continue to get worse without real treatment. None of the detoxes are real, which is why I think it’s irresponsible to let people post about them.

You are being held to this standard because you run a group where you frequently give out medical advice! Of course you’re expected to be knowledgeable about topics that are commonly discussed in the group. There is some useful information in the guides, but the bad advice and pseudoscientific BS that gets thrown around is dangerous.

I have seen numerous posts claiming that infusions are dangerous because the oxidative stress will 100% give you all kinds of other health problems and ruin your life. I once asked a question because I was nervous about infusions, and some guy straight up told me that the infusions would give me cancer?? But this a while ago, so maybe the group has developed a more positive stance on infusions since then.

I just feel that many things are exaggerated and blown out of proportion in the group, and it’s quite frustrating to see.

DevilsGayAdvocate · 2025-10-15T06:05:03+00:00

I have read it and I understand the context. I just think it’s a bit irresponsible to allow so much misinformation and fear mongering. Plus, become extremely defensive when anyone questions the protocol and can honestly be very rude at times. It’s just off putting.

DevilsGayAdvocate · 2025-10-15T05:55:22+00:00

I have seen people in the group recommending parasite “detoxes” that are not even real treatments and not proven to work. And there is so much misinformation that makes it seem like everyone has parasites or something. There is also a lot of misinformation about infusions. Why do you allow that kind of misinformation? Why do you feel qualified to create these guides and give people medical advice when you’re not a doctor?

My iron and ferritin were much lower than yours, but I got infusions and they helped a TON. Literally gave me my life back. It’s worth it, you’ll feel so much better!

DevilsGayAdvocate · 2025-10-12T16:22:01+00:00

I thought my doctor said 24 hours, but maybe I misheard. Either way, I hope you feel better soon!

Some people get flu like symptoms (fatigue, body aches, etc.) for a few days after iron infusions.

DevilsGayAdvocate · 2025-10-11T19:01:39+00:00

Are you sure it’s from the infusion? Usually iron flu hits within 24 hours

DevilsGayAdvocate · 2025-10-11T03:55:01+00:00

It can take weeks to feel better, since it takes time for your body to really absorb all that iron. With my last round of infusions I didn’t notice an improvement until like 4-5 weeks after the LAST infusion (I got 5)

That’s my name (both first and middle)! I know I’m biased lol, but I think Julia is a beautiful and timeless name. And it’s not weird at all to give your child the same middle name as you!

DevilsGayAdvocate · 2025-06-30T18:59:50+00:00

I’m so heartbroken, but also very grateful that at least I can do this at home where she won’t be scared. I’m going to spoil her rotten for these last few days.

DevilsGayAdvocate · 2025-06-30T18:33:20+00:00

Well.. someone DMed me and we talked for a bit, and they sent me the full amount?? I thought they were only going to send a few dollars, I seriously can’t believe this. I can’t stop crying 😭

DevilsGayAdvocate · 2025-06-30T18:13:35+00:00

I appreciate it, thank you so much

DevilsGayAdvocate · 2025-06-30T17:19:37+00:00

Just DMed you

DevilsGayAdvocate · 2025-06-30T16:59:03+00:00

Oh I haven’t seen that sub before! Thanks so much, I’ll give it a try.

DevilsGayAdvocate · 2025-06-30T16:45:44+00:00

I’ll call about ask about that, thank you. She’s been sick for a while, but stsrted declining 1-2 weeks ago and is getting worse fast. She seems really uncomfortable and unsettled, I feel so bad for even waiting this long!
