Dancing with the Stars judge gives update after in-flight medical emergency

  • "Dancing with the Stars" judge Carrie Ann Inaba experienced a "small medical emergency" on a flight to New York City.
  • During the flight, Inaba felt dizzy, nauseous, warm, and her arms became numb, prompting assistance from the flight crew and an onboard doctor.
  • Upon landing, paramedics met her at the gate and transported her to the emergency room, where she received fluids.
  • Inaba was traveling for a campaign with Novartis to raise awareness for Sjögren's disease, an autoimmune disorder she has, though she stated the incident was unrelated to her Sjögren's.
  • She is now recovering and expressed gratitude for the help received during the "scary experience," noting she initially suspected food poisoning before her arms went numb.
