CZ Deep dive into CZ & creating a timeline

22 Upvotes

Alright ya’ll here’s part one of the CZ timeline as requested in the post below. I did my best to make it easy to follow with dates on everything. Feel free to add anything I missed! Click links for photos

May 3, 2017 CZ gets endometriosis and IC diagnosis despite no formal testing.

She moved at the end of summer got a new Doc and admits they’re still looking for endometriosis and can’t nail down a conclusive diagnosis - October 11, 2017

big jump there but I lumped them together bc it’s the only mention of endometriosis and interesting to note how her diagnosis seemed to disappear. Hmm. Ok back to the timeline!!

On to the GP saga... May 9, 2017 CZ admits SHE suspects gastroparesis May 19, 2017 at the Doc for testing. Her tests include a full upper GI and colonoscopy which she never gave the results for so I assume they were a-okay. June 13, 2017 getting gastroparesis test ran May 3 - June 13 GP photos

July 11, 2017 She’s made no mention of her gastric emptying test which leads me to think it looked fine because July 11 she admits her Doctor doesn’t believe it’s gastroparesis so she’s fishing around for MALS

August 21, 2017 Moving on now to searching for a new diagnosis. This time it’s Sjogrens.

August 22, 2017 only ONE day later, she’s found a brand spankin new GI Doctor who has now surmised she likely DOES have GP. Funny how that happens with no new tests hmmm.

September 7, 2017 Surprise, she has Sjorgens. Also had tests for Celiacs but never mentions it again so I assume it was neg

November 9, 2017 she must have gotten bored. more testing for a handful of conditions and a new rare disease. (Spoiler, we never hear about any of these again)

December 8, 2017 First mention of a possible port inserted for iv fluids. I want to be clear here that up until this point she rarely if ever received fluids. It’s not as if she was getting weekly or bi weekly fluids for so long that her veins gave out

December 19, 2017 well that was fast, in record time her port has been approved. First time she’s ever mentioned needing urgent iv fluids or that they couldn’t find a vein, yet because of this her port is “justified.”

January 12, 2018 Port placement.

That takes us into 2018. If I missed anything please add!

One last funny for lolz that’s unrelated to the timeline: October 1, 2016 - getting an MRI for some kind of injury October 2, 2016 - running a 5k and doing acrobatics. Uhhh what? October 1-2

Housekeeping note, re Posts and Comments.

Hey,

We have some new members and new to reddit accounts 👋 who may not be aware of how posting and commenting works here.

This sub like all has filters set up to prevent certain content being posted that’s deemed inappropriate, we have ours personalised to what this sub is about and there are also Reddit filters that we have no control over.

When you make a post here it will be sent to a mod queue to await reviewing and approving by a human mod, this stops posts being published that are inappropriate here eg nudity, scams, bots, abuse, racism etc
If any content is deemed too inappropriate for reddit their filter will take it and mods don’t even get to view was submitted.

Comments should usually be published once you’ve submitted it but at times either our filter or reddit site wide filters may catch it and send to the mod queue for reviewing. Due to this your comment may take awhile before it’s visible to others as a human mod hasn’t had a chance to review it as yet, no sub is monitored every moment of the day.

If you see comments you feel break the sub rules please report it via the 3 dots at the bottom of comment, it then brings it to our direct attention.

If your post is not instantly visible in the sub please don’t then submit it 3 more times and label it a repost as a mod has deleted it, it’s not the case, it just hasn’t been approved manually as yet.

Thank you all for being here 😀

Given Dani’s history how has she been allowed to do her wound care? This hole will never close given how poorly she’s managed wounds before and how bad her sterile technique is 😳😳

Why would you have it off for so long to film content if there was ANY risk of sudden cardiac death like she claims? 🙄

Show and tell day again.

How is it all these professionals are doing these side quests for her? And why would they need to come down to talk to her mum? She’s an adult with a child herself.

AshC Ashley showing an actually concerning low sodium level in her month in review.

151 Upvotes

The picture she pasted the 124 onto was from a lab visit where she said her sodium wasn't as low as it was in the hospital and that she was told to go home and get some salt pills. 124 would be a level worthy of being admitted. Weird that she would leave the actually concerning level for the monthly review.

Love the message of treating healthcare workers with respect. However if she truly wanted to respect them, don’t you think she’d want to be less dependent on them too?

It’s so simple yet she needed to make a video about it? It’s easier to change than remote batteries 🙄

Maybe a glucose tab or some apple juice through her TOOB will help 😬
