Danniella Westbrook has sparked concern after revealing she has been ‘blacking out’ regularly following a number of terrifying seizures.
The former EastEnders actress, 49, told her fans in a concerning Instagram video that she has been crying non-stop due to severe pain as she begged her followers for some health advice.
The former soap star appeared on camera while holding her head has described the excruciating pain which she has been suffering in recent weeks.
“I have come on to get some advice from people because I keep passing out and every now and again I am having seizures," Danniella told her fanbase.
Describing her symptoms, the star went on: “I keep getting blackness over this side of my face. I’m sweating hot, burning up but I am freezing cold. And my throat is so bad.
“I can’t get anything to go down. I just keep crying, you know when you are that ill and you just keep crying. I want my mum and I am 49. I don’t know what to do if I should ring an ambulance or not. I don’t want to waste people’s time.”
Thankfully, Danniella later appeared back on her stories to let her concerned fans know that she had been in contact with the emergency services.
The former EastEnders star is set to undergo another two face surgeries in Turkey as she continues her transformation after turning her life around.
Best known for her role as Sam Mitchell on EastEnders, Danniella was left with crumbling bones, a collapsed jaw and cheekbone and rotten and collapsed septum after years of cocaine abuse and alcohol addiction.
Her facial bones began to break down from snorting cocaine laced with a tranquilliser more typically used on cattle.
But the former Celebrity Big Brother housemate has reportedly revealed she’s set to go under the knife again next week as she heads to Turkey in a desperate bid to fix her face.
Her latest bout of cosmetic surgery will take place abroad ahead of her highly publicised acting comeback, with the second to happen after Christmas.
Danniella recently told The Sun : "I go away soon to Turkey to have another face operation and then another one after Christmas."
Speaking to OK! magazine about her latest bout of surgery earlier this year, she explained: "I'm going through a lot operations at the moment. They're good but they're very hard.
"The first two of my operations haven't taken a toll on me but the next lot will do. I'm seeing a bone surgeon next who is going to be removing a rib."
Danniella's surgeries come after she vowed to turn her life around in 2021 following years of drug abuse and relapsing onto 'cocaine and champagne'.
