Brandi Glanville, known for her role on "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills," recently alarmed fans by posting a disconcerting video on X where she appeared severely shaking during medical treatment.
In the concerning footage, Glanville shakes uncontrollably due to an unknown ailment, sparking significant concern among her followers and prompting a medical investigation, Daily Mail reported.
The video, released by Glanville last Friday, captures the former reality TV star undergoing what she describes as a treatment involving a lymphatic drainage machine. At 52, Glanville's appearance in the video—without makeup and with visibly unkempt hair—added to the shock of her current state.
In her own words during the treatment, Glanville notes the severity of her condition, stating, "Wow. It's like, a f***ing thing." She further expresses a desperate willingness to endure the shaking "for the rest of her life" if it means removing the troubling ailment from her body.
The visual impact of the video led to an outpouring of concern from her fans. They took to social media to express their horror and sympathy, with comments ranging from calls for hospital care to messages of prayer and support. The severity of her altered appearance prompted comments such as "Girl I’m horrified for you. Sending prayers and well wishes," highlighting the community's shock and concern.
Dr. Terry Dubrow, a recognized plastic surgeon, has been instrumental in attempting to diagnose Glanville's condition. She underwent four biopsies on her face and neck, conducted by Dr. Dubrow, aimed at uncovering the underlying cause of her symptoms.
Glanville has openly discussed her health struggles, revealing that the treatment and ongoing tests have cost her over $70,000. Despite these efforts, a definitive diagnosis remains elusive. Initially suspected of suffering from parasite-caused symptoms, Dr. Dubrow has since dispelled this theory, suggesting instead that an infection or a possible foreign body reaction could be at play.
The symptoms have resulted in significant facial changes for Glanville, with her cheeks appearing swollen at times and deflated and mottled at others. Her previous battle with black mold poisoning has only compounded the complexity of her health issues.
In response to the flood of concern, Brandi assured her followers about the biopsies, stating via a post, "Yes guys @DrDubrow took 4 tiny biopsies from my face and neck so we can continue to get better," and added reassurances about the procedure's ease and her hopes pinned on the results.
The distressing revelation has not only brought Glanville's health into the public eye but also highlighted the often unseen struggles that can accompany public figures. As the medical community continues to investigate her symptoms, support from her followers remains unwavering.
The progression of Glanville's condition and Dr. Dubrow's ongoing efforts may provide further insights into this perplexing medical case. As it stands, the situation remains a stark reminder of the personal battles faced by those in the limelight, often hidden behind the camera. The hope is that continued medical investigation will bring clarity and a path to recovery for Glanville, whose plight has touched many.
