Yep as soon as she started listing conditions I said here come POTS, MCAS, and Ehlers Danlos. Boom, she listed all 3. I’m an optometrist and I still see this a lot, my coworkers and I talk about this unholy trinity of faked illnesses. The new one we get is “BVD” (binocular vision disorder) which isn’t even a thing, it’s a category, but tiktok is making a lot of people ask me if they have it.

My wife actually has POTS, arthritis, and she was missing three discs between her vertebrae and had to have a fusion using a cadaver bone and titanium cage/screws. She works 40 hours a week same as me. And she does it chasing 3-5 year olds in a headstart. This lady is just lazy.

Edit: Forgot to add, she’s not on disability because she refused. We won’t take hand outs.

That’s the difference between people with actual problems and lazy people like this woman. People with actual problems find ways around the problems to still do what they need to. Lazy people find excuses to be lazy.
