I don't know about support groups, but another recent reference is:
RJ McClure et al. Epidemiology of Munchausen syndrome by proxy,
non-accidental poisoning, and non-accidental suffocation. Arch Dis Childh
1996;75:57-61.
Hope this is of help

Subject: Munchausen's by proxy
A colleague who works as a counselor in a local children's clinic has come
across a probable case of Munchausen's by proxy. She has asked me
1. Is there a review of the psychology of this condition, and
2. Are there any Munchausen's-by-proxy support groups.
Can anyone help?
Best wishes
Gordon Challand
