The Scary Reason Teen Mom 2's Jenelle Evans Was Hospitalized

June 2024 ยท 2 minute read

Jenelle Evans has been a public figure since appearing on MTV's "16 and Pregnant" as a teenager. The mother of three was fired from "Teen Mom 2" following an alleged animal cruelty incident, but continues to remain active on social media. However, fans grew concerned when she posted a message on her Instagram Story explaining she had been hospitalized.

"Was in the hospital all day yesterday for chest pain. Please just send prayers. Thanks! I'll explain later, too much to type," she wrote, according to Page Six. In another since-deleted post, Jenelle explained the reason for her hospitalization. "New blood test results are in for me," the post read. "I have 2 of the anti-acetylcholine receptor antibodies: blocking and binding in my system. Usually found in myasthenia gravis." Jenelle has yet to further explain the health impacts of her diagnosis, but it appears she's not alone. The autoimmune neuromuscular disorder, which causes a fluctuating weakness of voluntary muscle groups, affects 20 out of every 100,000 Americans, according to the Myasthenia Gravis Foundation

Unfortunately, Jenelle's recent health scare comes on the heels of another medical diagnosis. The podcast host recently revealed to E! News that she was diagnosed with fibromyalgia in 2022 after years of chronic pain. The former reality star explained that she has since started to alter her eating habits, and overall, is looking to lead a healthier life. "I am now researching foods to stay away from and foods that are beneficial for my condition," she said. In addition, the former reality star has documented her health journey on her YouTube channel and regularly provides followers with an update on her condition.
