Exodus 20:16 M.A.M.A. was begun in response to the fast growing number of false allegations of Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy (MSBP) . Parents are being accused of making their own children ill. Increasingly, families across America, Britain, Australia, Canada and New Zealand are being destroyed by doctors and other professionals who make false and even malicious allegations against desperate mothers of chronically/critically ill children. The inventor of this label/diagnosis, Sir Roy Meadow, has now been completely discredited in the UK courts and there is a tremendous public outcry for review of all cases in which he has ever been involved. (For more information see Published Articles ) We believe there should be a review of all cases world-wide in which MSP label has been used. The motives of the accusers can be multi-faceted. Often, allegations are used by a doctor or institution to evade a medical malpractice lawsuit , or to simply rid themselves of a troublesome mom when frustrated and unable to diagnose a child's condition. Increasingly, this label is being deliberately misused by opposing parents in child custody suits. Many nurses and even doctors have been accused.

He appreciates hearing about individuals' experiences with the phenomena discussed on this page, but cannot always respond. His email address is mdf@myself.com. I am a psychiatrist and author from Birmingham, Alabama. MUNCHAUSEN SYNDROME is the most severe and chronic form of my area of specialty, the FACTITIOUS DISORDERS. I am an expert in MALINGERING as well (in which people do the same thing, but for external gain such as narcotics). Factitious disorders are well-recognized among psychiatrists, but they have not received the attentionor advocacy among consumers, families, and professionalsthat have greeted more common ailments such as depression. However, factitious disorders can be every bit as disabling and further public and professional education are vital. People with factitious disorders feign, exaggerate, or actually self-induce illnesses. Their aim? To assume the status of "patient," and thereby to win attention, nurturance, and lenience that they feel unable to obtain in any other way. Unlike individuals who "malinger," people with factitious disorders are not primarily seeking external gains such as disability payments or narcotic drugsthough they may receive them nonetheless.

   Extractions: home definitions internet resources Frequently asked questions The only one who knows for sure the diagnosis is the patient her/him self. She/he is the only one who could know if she/he intentionally, consciously produced the signs and symptoms in order to be cared as patient. In this case she/he knows that she/he suffer from Munchausen syndrome (factitious disorder). There is limited information on the best methods to treat factitious disorders. However, there are many reports of various therapies that worked in individual cases. There are also some personal stories of ex - Munchausen patients who recovered (with or without professional help). (On " internet resources " section you'll find links to two of those stories) Finally, "statistically speaking", this pathology seems to become rarer in the old age so, maybe, the natural course is toward recovery. The single most important factor for cure is, in my opinion, the patient's willingness to undergo therapy and liberate her/him self of the disorder. For Munchausen by proxy syndrome data are even scarcer and things are further complicated by the risks for the child (which imposes precaution in assessing individual outcome) and the involvement of the legal system (which make the evaluation of the patient's willingness to cure difficult).

Munchausen syndrome is a psychological disorder in which an individual will go to great lengths to convince others that they are seriously ill. This disorder was named after Baron Munchausen, a gentleman who was famous for his wildly exaggerated stories.  Munchausen syndrome falls into the category of a factitious disorder, where the patient fakes an illness and is typically a pathological liar. Individuals have injected themselves with toxins, body wastes, and other lethal substances. They have purposely injured themselves, faked temperatures, and ingested medications to get the attention and sympathy of others and the medical field. They have endured unnecessary medical and surgical procedures to keep the attention on themselves. Some Kids Cry Out in the Language of Illness Are children just as capable of feigning an illness to receive needless medical attention?

    Extractions: Munchausen syndrome Munchausen syndrome is a serious medical condition commmonly confused with hypochondria, an often overlooked and minimized condition. With the condition known as hypochondria, people experience physical symptoms of illnesses, and find themselves frequenting doctor’s offices, believing that they are truly sick. However, in Munchausen syndrome, the sufferer knows that he or she is not ill at all but seeks medical attention in order to gain attention he/she feels cannot be gained in any other manner. In some cases of Munchausen syndrome, the sufferer will even inflict harm upon him/herself in order to make become sick or hurt in such a way that medical attention is required. When the condition may be suspected by a physician, he or she will need to keep careful and close detail of a patient's symptoms, and should avoid all exploratory and extreme treatment procedures (i.e., exploratory surgery). If symptoms of Munchausen persist for six months or more and all other options have been considered, the doctor may approach with some care the subject of the syndrome and its possible treatment options. bodyOffer(5080) Munchausen syndrome by proxy, however, is a far more dangerous form of hypochondria where the afflicted person purposely inflicts harm on another person, usually his/her own child, in order to gain attention from those in the medical profession. Children have been severely deformed, if not killed, because of this disorder.

Psychiatry In Medicine Topics [General] Psychiatric Referral Psychosomatic Medicine Munchausen Syndrome Munchausen Syndrome Repeated fabrication of physical illnessusually acute, dramatic, and convincingby a person who wanders from hospital to hospital for treatment. Munchausen patients may simulate many physical disorders (eg, MI, hematemesis, hemoptysis, acute abdominal conditions, FUO). A patient's abdominal wall may be a crisscross of scars, or a digit or a limb may have been amputated. Fevers are often due to self-inflicted abscesses; bacterial culture, usually of Escherichia coli, indicates the source of the infecting organism. Munchausen patients initially and sometimes interminably become the responsibility of medical or surgical clinics. Nevertheless, the disorder is primarily a psychiatric problem, is more complex than simple dishonest simulation of symptoms, and is associated with severe emotional difficulties. Patients may have prominent histrionic personality features but are usually intelligent and resourceful. They know how to simulate disease and are sophisticated regarding medical practices. They differ from malingerers because although their deceits and simulations are conscious, their motivations for forging illness and quest for attention are largely unconscious. Commonly, there is an early history of emotional and physical abuse. Patients appear to have problems with their identity, intense feelings, inadequate impulse control, a deficient sense of reality, brief psychotic episodes, and unstable interpersonal relationships. Their need to be taken care of conflicts with their inability to trust authority figures, whom they manipulate and continually provoke or test. Feelings of guilt and the associated need for punishment and expiation are obvious.

At that time I did not imagine that "lay persons" could be interested in such a specific subject. However the mails that I received proved that many persons with no specific training in the medical or psychological fields were interested by factitious disorders and Munchausen syndrome by proxy (MSBP). Thus, for those persons, mostly patients, ex patients, parents and friends of Munchausen syndrome sufferers the information was both too limited in scope and too complicated in presentation.

    Extractions: A Case Report and Review of Literature Munchausen syndrome is one of the most intriguing of factitious disorders. Doctors working in teaching institutions and medical emergency centers are more likely to come across such patients and these patients can present with so many diverse complaints that doctors and physicians working in all fields of medicine should be aware of this entity. Most clinicians will encounter at least one patient with a factitious disorder during their practice years of which Munchausen syndrome is the most extreme type. In this report, we present a case of Munchausen syndrome referred as a possible case of immune deficiency. A 22-year-old single female (university student) was referred to our hospital as a possible case of immune deficiency or neutrophil disorder. On admission, she had painful swelling over the right breast for five days and gave a history of similar recurrent swellings over the abdominal wall during the past few months which needed repeated surgical drainage in other hospitals on about 20 occasions. She denied a history of fever, upper or lower respiratory tract symptoms, trauma or such lesions on other parts of the body except the abdominal wall. Her problems started at the age of 17 when she was seen for amenorrhea. She had only two cycles and then failed to menstruate. She was prescribed oral contraceptives and after a few months she developed symptoms suggestive of deep vein thrombosis in one leg. It was proven on venogram and she was started on anticoagulants; while being on warfarin, she developed recurrent deep vein thrombosis (DVT). She was again hospitalized and the dose of warfarin was gradually increased to 105 mg but still the prothrombin time and INR did not increase significantly. Even her medications were given under supervision so she was labeled as a case of warfarin resistance possibly due to poor absorption.
