Actress Christina Applegate Hospitalized with Kidney Infection Amid MS Battle
5 Aug
Summary
- Applegate hospitalized with kidney infection
- Struggling with ongoing health issues since MS diagnosis in 2021
- Seeking answers and treatment to stop recurring hospital visits
In a recent episode of the "MeSsy" podcast, actress Christina Applegate revealed that she is currently hospitalized with a kidney infection. Applegate, who was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS) in 2021, has been struggling with ongoing health issues for the past three years.
According to Applegate, she was not feeling well during a recent trip to Europe and decided to check into the hospital upon her return to the United States. She was experiencing severe stomach pain and was determined to get answers this time, rather than just being sent home with medication.
Applegate's health issues have been ongoing since her MS diagnosis, with the actress saying she has ended up in the hospital "upwards of 30 times" due to symptoms like vomiting, diarrhea, and pain. While initially told the issues were not related to her MS, Applegate is now facing a new challenge with the kidney infection.
Despite the setback, Applegate remains optimistic about her recovery, assuring listeners that she will be okay. She is currently receiving IV antibiotics to treat the infection and is hopeful that the doctors will be able to determine the underlying cause of her recurring health problems.
