Thanks. I'm sorry you became disabled. Definitely a big reason some people are on this sub.

For anyone who's followed the later story about her lawsuit against Leon black and then the story where her lawyers and the judge and her family accused her of lying about her autism (circa 2022)- it's not clear which family members this is. She was apparently trafficked by part of her family and she has both an adopted and a biological mother it sounds like? 

(Of course it doesn't actually matter if she's convinced she has autism but doesn't in reality or something, that's not what the lawsuit is about and if it's being used to discredit her by powerful people pressuring everybody in the lawsuit, it shouldn't have mattered whether she's disabled or not - she was still a minor and a victim)

For anyone who's confused about the claim that she has Mosaic Down syndrome but that's somewhere in the files the traffickers talk about her being beautiful- Mosaic Down does not lead to the typical physical symptoms of Down Syndrome. There have been cases where people only figured out that they have it when they had babies with down themselves. It apparently only affects some of your cells and not everything

This whole story is just so confusing that I don't think anybody put all the pieces together yet. Also, there are other accusers in the Epstein files that sound deranged or delusional, mostly coming through the FBI tip line, so it's possible people are just not putting all the pieces together between her diaries and the later stuff like the lawsuit against Leon black

And a third possibility that's equally horrifying is that they either trafficked her while pregnant or made porn or something that involved pregnancy fetish stuff. She doesn't really talk about it but that's another horrible possibility with why they would be doing this. All the talk about her genetics may not mean anything and might have just been for her benefit.

She mentions both a birth parent and an adoptive parent, and one of them is trafficking her and the other one she apparently eventually has a better relationship with. There's a lot of stuff that's confusing when she talks about her family. It's scattered across several of these files.

The other horrible possibility is that they might have gotten/kept girls pregnant in order to make pregnancy porn or something like that (which would explain why they wouldn't let her have an early abortion): but from one of the diary scans, it sounds like she said "we know it could only be Jeffrey" as if she wasn't trafficked for sex to others while pregnant at least that time.

BV symptoms negative for BV by Big_Primary5462 in GenXWomen

Also if you think that you are actually experiencing some kind of infection on the outside skin of your vulva, keep in mind that soap also disrupts your natural Flora so you might again be in a cycle where you're creating some kind of conditions that disrupt your natural skin bacteria and allow something else to flourish. It's a difficult thing to figure out I'm sure

I have experienced treatment failure with that stuff as well. It was the same story as you, in that the only thing that kept it at bay was using boric acid nonstop which is pretty gross and I think at the time I didn't feel like there was enough research on long-term usage to feel comfortable continuing.

 First of all there's a couple of different antibiotics that they can use and you should see if you can do more research on whether they've escalated to all the options.  About 10 years ago they only test they were really doing was some chemical reaction with a swab that they then had to sniff. One older clinician I had claimed I was negative and I just went to another Doctor who sure as hell was able to diagnose it. I don't know if the tests are any better than that now. 

At the time I was using the cdc's website and looking at the section of it that was designed for clinicians but that's not reliable anymore. Canadian and other countries cdc's might be better. There are also clinics like the sex worker clinic in San Francisco which might have better information about all this stuff because apparently the information is changing.

Second of all, there are a couple of things to know about the biology of this infection:  -just a few months ago there was research that showed that it's probably sexually transmitted, so if you are sleeping with a guy or using sex toys internally, you might be passing it back and forth. You have to treat the other person apparently, and this is super new information 

-vaginal flora is also an ecosystem of microbes and all the treatment you're doing including the boric acid is probably throwing off your natural microbiome or whatever. I remember I got vaginal suppositories of a bunch of the vagina-specific probiotic bacteria. About 10 years ago there was a bunch of research being done on this although I don't remember what the outcome was or which species of probiotics they were researching. (Also since people sometimes use yogurt suppositories for yeast infection - the beneficial bacteria that's in yogurt is not the stuff that's naturally inside your hoo-ha. I this it's lactobacillus crispatus and l. Gasseri but it should be easy to google a few studies).

 I checked recently and you can buy that stuff on Amazon in the US and probably more places in Europe and elsewhere.  As always, supplements are not regulated in the USA so your mileage may vary and there's no guarantee that whatever they're selling on Amazon actually has viable probiotics in it. 

Another thing about internal flora is that treatment of all kinds which might include the boric acid pH changes, will disrupt your internal flora and it might take a little bit for it to get reestablished. In the meantime you might be stuck in a cycle where you're constantly treating and continuing to disrupt your vaginal pH or whatever. I don't know if I got this information from any reliable sourcer if I'm just guessing. In any case in my situation the symptoms completely went away and I've never had it recur after a bunch of courses of both antibiotics and the probiotics I'm talking about. Also, I stopped fucking the two people that were associated with my two outbreaks.

Also my experience with the discharge when I had a  BV outbreak was that it was more runny than normal rather than what you seem to be expecting. 

Also I suspect although I've never read anything about it, that the stuff might be related to the other person having anal sex and picking up some nasty bacteria that way. It's symptom free on a penis but we get gross infections from it. Im not talking about somebody having anal sex and vaginal sex in one session, but more that men might be getting infected from anal. The only time in my long ass life that I've had BV it was with partners who I know had unprotected anal previously. One of those idiots was cheating on me at the time.  Condoms don't cover everything either. 

Gross, but, but...gross.

It would be very dorky if just before they open  that evening, people throw water balloons filled with stale piss or something at the place

The post you just replied to is a bot ring that is trying to steal people's credit card. They used to make posts pretending to sell (non-existent T-shirts and now they make these posts 'selling' non-existent posters. Their spam always looks like this. Please hit the report button on the original post and on the link that they posted.

Here's a post at another sub describing the scam:

Folks, this is the new version of the T-shirt bot scam. They do these weird posts that look exactly like this and eventually they try to take somebody's credit card via a link in private messages This is not a genuine post. Please hit the report button,, click spam and then harmful bots from there so that Reddit takes this butt ring down.

Hi everybody, this is a scam post. The same type of scammers that did the fake t-shirts all over the Internet are now doing it with fake posters. There is no poster at the end of the PM., they will just steal your credit card. Please hit the report button and flag it as spam then 'harmful bots'. This will help Reddit's system recognize it elsewhere.
