So I'm Watching "House"...
... and I've got a couple of questions:
1. What does happen when Munchausen's sufferers get sick for real?
2. Why is it called Munchausen's anyway? Didn't Munchausen hate doctors?
Yeah. I'm leading a fun life.

Answers to your questions:
1) They die. Or they get better. With or without treatment.
2) Munchausen syndrome: The name derives from one Baron Munchhausen (Karl Friedrich Hieronymus Freiherr von Münchhausen, 1720-1797), to whom were ascribed a series of fantastically impossible tales written by Rudolf Raspe.
3) I'm awesome. Also, it's too freakin' hot to sleep in my apartment. So I look up useless information instead of figuring out a way to convert my waterbed to a giant ice cube.
