Bethenny Frankel opened up about her shocking medical misdiagnosis
Frankel, 55, shared the health update in an Instagram video posted Monday. She said she recently joined a legitimate medical community involving teams of doctors. According to Frankel, the doctors cross-reference lab results, supplements, and other health information.
Frankel said the doctors told her she had been “misdiagnosed with something pretty major.” She added that the medical team appeared “pretty resolved” about the issue but did not reveal the original diagnosis.
The revelation left Frankel confused about her health. She said she had been living under the belief that she had the condition. Frankel also said she did not want to “throw anybody under the bus,” though she admitted the situation was “very confusing.”
Frankel urged her followers to take a thorough approach to medical care. She also warned fans against relying solely on ChatGPT for health information and encouraged them to research their concerns carefully.
“I just think that there’s nothing we should be more thorough about than our medical care,” Frankel said. She captioned the video, “Do your research #health #doctors #yourewelcome.” She also emphasized the importance of staying informed about personal health decisions.
Frankel previously revealed in January that she had been diagnosed with chronic kidney disease. She said repeated blood tests showed low kidney function and later speculated about possible causes.
In March, Frankel described the diagnosis as “overwhelming” and “slightly frightening.” She said the condition could be managed through lifestyle choices, including staying hydrated and maintaining healthy habits. Her latest update adds another layer to her recent health journey and highlights the complexity of medical diagnoses.
