Christina Applegate shared a candid account of how she was struggling to maintain her personal hygiene amid her battle with multiple sclerosis.
Christina Applegate candidly opened up about how the debilitating symptoms of multiple sclerosis have recently affected her ability to maintain her personal hygiene. During Tuesday's episode of her 'MeSsy' podcast, the 52-year-old actress revealed that she was suffering a 'pretty bad' relapse amid her battle with the chronic disease, which affects the brain and central nervous system.
You just lay in a dark room watching TV and wanting it all to just go away. And that's kind of where I'm at,' she admitted. In August 2021, Applegate revealed she had been diagnosed with MS a few months earlier. Production on the last season of her hit Netflix show 'Dead to Me' was halted for about five months while she began treatment. 'I got diagnosed while we were working, and I had to call everybody and be like, 'I have multiple sclerosis, guys.
Let's not all be hypochondriacs and run to the doctor when our leg gets weak,' Applegate said. 'But it happened to me four years ago where we were on set, and I'd go like, 'I think I'm tired, you know?' 'So it presented itself like a few years ago until it just got as bad as it did.'
