Canadian popstar Celine Dion has recently cancelled her Manchester tour date after being diagnosed with a rare disorder. Dion took to Instagram to tell fans about the problems she has been facing after being diagnosed with Stiff Person Syndrome (SPS) which has caused her to have spasms and difficulty with her singing.
What is the disorder and what are the symptoms?
SPS is a neurological disorder that can leave a person with muscle spasms and sensitivity to loud noises. The disorder is extremely rare and is said to affect twice as many women as men. It can cause people to be stuck inside, terrified to go outdoors because street noises can trigger spasms and falls.
