Jeff Dahmer Had Debilitating Polymyositis

He would have been incapable of doing what they've claimed.

During his testimony in court, Dr. Fosdal mentioned that Jeff took steroids for about a year due to a shoulder problem:

Here's an excerpt from the collection of all reports made by psychiatrists who talked with Jeff and examined him. This collection was published under the title Psych Reports. In the last paragraph, it says that Jeff had polymyositis and was on Prednisone for one year:

Jeff Dahmer had polymyositis and was on Prednisone for one year.

What is polymyositis?

Polymyositis is an autoimmune disease in which striated muscle become inflamed. The reason for going to the doctor is usually increasing weakness in the muscles of the arms, legs, neck and back. As a rule, the first symptoms of polymyositis are nonspecific and often occur in other diseases: fatigue, weakness, malaise, weight loss, alternating pain in different muscles, fever. Sometimes there is pain and swelling in the joints, after which it becomes harder to bend and unbend them. Over the course of several weeks or months, weakness in the muscles of the arms and legs gradually increases. If we are talking about shoulder polymyositis, it becomes impossible to raise your arms above the head. High doses of steroid hormones are used to treat polymyositis. It is important to start treatment as early as possible, preferably within the first three months of the onset of symptoms. There's no cure for polymyositis, but the symptoms can be managed.

It's unclear why it was said that he had polymyositis for about a year. Polymyositis is incurable, you can only go into remission, and in order to stay in remission you need to follow certain rules, take vitamins, and be periodically monitored by a doctor.

Here's another excerpt. This is from the report made by clinical psychologist Kathleen P. Stafford during the preparation for the Ohio trial. The second paragraph notes that Jeff was treated with Prednisone, a steroid, for “joint pain” approximately four years prior. It doesn’t mention polymyositis. However, in some cases polymyositis spreads to the joints and causes pain.

Jeff Dahmer was treated with Prednisone for joint pain.

Now it's clear why Jeff Dahmer walked the way he did. He was weak and couldn’t hold his shoulders up. Watch as he struggles to lift himself out of his chair:

This also explains the weight loss and why Jeff looked so thin during his first court appearance.

Vitamins, proteins, and calcium were found in his apartment. That’s a rather unusual set of items for a necrophiliac serial killer supposedly obsessed with finding his next victim. However, it’s quite natural for someone who took care of his health. Calcium is especially noteworthy because one of the side effects of steroid treatment is the leaching of calcium from the body, which can lead to osteoporosis.

Several questions arise…

• When was Jeff first diagnosed with polymyositis? In 1988? Was this perhaps brought on by stress over his “arrest” for supposedly molesting Somsack Sinthasomphone at an apartment rented or owned by DA E. Michael McCann?

• Why don’t most people know about Jeff’s polymyositis? Why is it only mentioned in Dr. Fosdal's testimony and Kathleen P. Stafford's report, which most people don't even know about? Perhaps they didn’t want to highlight this very key issue as it would have caused the narrative to collapse?

Most importantly…

How on earth was Jeff Dahmer able to drag the bodies of grown men around his apartment and dismember them, if he had polymyositis?

Also, steroids lower immunity. People who are treated with steroids are at greater risk of developing infections because treatment with these drugs weakens the immune system, making the body more susceptible to fungal, bacterial, viral or parasitic infections that can lead to serious illness. However, we are told that Jeff chopped up dead bodies in that tiny apartment and faced numerous bio-hazards without getting sick.
