Kris Aquino gave her followers an update on her health after two months of silence on social media.
She started by saying she had to wait until there was “clarity about [her] health situation” before she posted.
She thanked all those who have been praying for her and then said her left arm would be getting some rest the next day because her PICC line would be removed.
Kris wrote: “There have been times i wanted to give up – because of fatigue & being forever bedridden; the bruises all over my body that suddenly appear; my inability (since February) to tolerate solid food; headaches; bone deep pain in my spine, knees, joints in my fingers; and my constant flares esp. in my face that just keep getting worse.
“BUT I remind myself Kuya & Bimb still need me & mahiya naman ako sa lahat ng mga patuloy na nagdarasal para gumanda ang kalusugan ko if I just give up.”
She mentioned she would be undergoing chemotherapy — but denied having cancer.
“I am grateful to be blessed to have the means for us to move to another state, and have more tests done & go to other specialists; and finally start my immunosuppressant therapy.
i was warned that the safest form of chemotherapy (i don’t have cancer) that can be used for my autoimmune conditions will make me lose my hair. Hair will eventually grow back but permanently damaged organs won’t- so dedma muna sa vanity. Happy birthday @drkatcee.
“To our new friends & guardian angels in Houston our love & gratitude is forever. Thank you Ate Rey & Christina, as well as Tita Marie.
She also corrected what was earlier reported that she had been diagnosed with four autoimmune diseases.
“Naguluhan si Ate during the zoom Q&A: to clarify we left the I was already diagnosed with 3 autoimmune conditions. It was while here in Houston that I was diagnosed with a 4th.
Unfortunately all my physical manifestations are pointing to a possible 5th – opo, pinakyaw ko na!”
She ended her post with: “Good night & God bless to all with #lovelovelove from Kuya, Bimb, and me.”
