Kerry Katona issues health update following life-changing diagnosis and shares secret behind 'amazing' weight loss

Kerry Katon has shared a health update after concerning fans. The former Atomic Kitten singer, who has suffered from 'chronic pain' for a number of years, was last week seen with a mask strapped around her face while medical professionals worked to increase her oxygen levels.

She told her followers that they shouldn't panic and quickly explained that she was actually lying in a hyperbaric oxygen chamber. Kerry was using the device to increase her oxygen levels in the hope that it will relieve the pain she has been suffering after being told she has scoliosis, which is a curvature of the spine.

Kerry cancelled her No Regrets book tour after being left bedbound while suffering from intense pain in her back. The 43-year-old said she was in severe pain across her hip joints and almost took herself to A&E. "I was diagnosed with scoliosis last week, after having trouble with my back," Kerry said in her latest new! magazine column.
