In a banter with her writer-friend Dindo Balares, Kris Aquino revealed a new health scare as “there is a problem with my heart.”
Balares shared the latest update about the Queen of Talk’s health through his Instagram and Facebook account a day after Mother’s Day.
“There’s a problem with my heart, Kuya Dindo – genetics. Very high cholesterol and triglycerides that at this point can’t be treated because I am underweight (91 lbs),” said Aquino as shared by Balares.
“My BP (blood pressure) is misbehaving – I am normally 145/122 with heartrate of 110-130. It’s the diastolic & heart rate na scary,” she added.
She then switched topic and talked about her autoimmune disease.
“Kuya Dindo let’s focus on this. My autoimmune is finally responding to the methotrexate (my chemotherapy). Finally! And the good air quality in Newport Coast. Can you please thank everyone praying for me?” Aquino said.
On Mother’s Day, Aquino gave a short note about her medical condition which she describe as a “test of courage”.
“It’s been a ‘test of courage’ type of weekend. I had a consultation [with] a 4th doctor in UCLA, this time a cardiologist. It’s the start of Mother’s Day here and moms have never been cowards. In this instance, please help me pray for good health for all moms and a very ‘Brave Heart’ for yours truly,” Aquino said.
In her last birthday last February, Aquino revealed that she was to try a new medication which comes with a great risk as she has a “very strong chance of having cardiac arrest.” (NIGEL CHAVEZ DE ESTRADA)
