Former Real Housewives of Beverley Hills star Brandi Glanville is facing difficult times as she continues to deal with complex health struggles. She recently opened up about multiple diagnoses related to the facial parasite she has been undergoing treatment for. She shared more details about her current situation, which has continuously plagued her health and finances, forcing her to raise funds through a GoFundMe.
Glanville, 53, has been quite vocal about her health issues in recent years, ranging from severe facial disfigurement to painful fungal skin infections. Much of her health decline began when a ruptured breast implant went undetected, leading to severe inflammation and compromised lymph nodes.
Ever since her implants were removed, Glanville has insisted they triggered her severe facial infections, which she revealed had spread down her right arm and resulted in a "fungal ball" on her face. Since starting her treatment, it has been a long and grueling journey for her, and also it's been tough for her to admit that she might now need financial help in order to continue that treatment.
“I’m finally sharing some of my worst moments leading up to getting diagnosed. I’m fighting highly resistant ESBL Klebsiella & Enterobacter with biofilm, Valley Fever, Demodex dermatitis & mono. I also have a fungal ball in my face that needs to be removed,” Glanville said in a post on X.
“I have surgeries ahead, months of daily IV treatment, and so far very little improvement. Even with insurance, this is costing me $3,300–$6K a month, and I’m barely able to work. I honestly don’t know how I’m going to do this mentally or financially,” she added.
