Justin Timberlake diagnosed with Lyme disease, the former NSYNC singer says

Justin Timberlake has been diagnosed with Lyme disease, the former NSYNC star announced on Instagram Thursday.

Timberlake shared the news in a post commemorating his Forget Tomorrow tour, which wrapped in Turkey on Wednesday, adding that the disease “can be relentlessly debilitating, both mentally and physically.”

The “SexyBack” singer, who described himself as a private person, wrote he considered ending the tour when diagnosed, but wrote that he “decided the joy that performing brings me far out weight the fleeting stress my body was feeling. I'm so glad I kept going.”
