Selma Blair's MS Flare-Up Alleged in Flight Incident
14 Oct
Summary
- Blair allegedly caused a disturbance on a Delta flight.
- Her attorney cited missed medication for neurological symptoms.
- Multiple sclerosis and Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome diagnoses are relevant.
Selma Blair was involved in a reported "medical emergency" on a Delta Airlines flight, leading to her detainment. Allegations include disruptive behavior such as attempting to open an aircraft door and biting a passenger. Her representatives confirmed a medical emergency occurred.
Blair's attorney attributed her actions to missing doses of powerful medication prescribed for severe neurological symptoms. This has brought attention to her diagnosed conditions: multiple sclerosis (MS) and Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS).
MS affects the nervous system by damaging the myelin sheath, disrupting brain communication and potentially causing permanent nerve damage. EDS is a group of inherited disorders affecting connective tissues, leading to symptoms like overly flexible joints and fragile skin.
