\u201cI’ve been dealing with problems with my health for a long time, and it’s been really difficult for me to face these challenges and to talk about everything that I’ve been going through,\u201d she said in a teary video posted to social media.<\/p>\n
\u201cRecently I have been diagnosed with a very rare it’s syndrome, which affects something like one in a million people,\u201d she continued, explaining that is this condition that has been causing all of the \u201cspasms\u201d she’s been having.<\/p>\n
