Former MTV reality star Lo Bosworth steps out in Miami after ‘surprise diagnosis'
Lo Bosworth's been through it, and come out the other side.
On Saturday night, 'The Hills' and 'Laguna Beach' alum stepped out at the NEW YOU Awards at 1 Hotel South Beach looking fantastic in a red and pink ensemble. The 38-year-old entrepreneur picked up some hardware for her feminine-healthcare company, Love Wellness.
Winning an award wasn't the only good news that the former MTV reality star has received lately. In an Instagram post last month, Bosworth revealed that after roughly a decade of dealing with various symptoms, she finally got an answer from her doctors.
The upshot? Bosworth has endometriosis, an incurable condition in which tissue grows outside the uterine lining, often leading to fatigue, cramping, heavy periods and infertility.
After undergoing excision surgery in February to remove the back of her uterus, appendix and six fibroids, she told her followers she noticed a huge improvement.
'How I've felt through it all? Grateful. Confused. Overwhelmed. Relieved. Validated. Scared. And … now recovering!' read the post.
Being a so-called #endowarrior isn't the only thing that Bosworth has been dealing with over the years, she explained in a separate Substack article detailing her 'surprise' diagnosis.
In 2019, she suffered a traumatic brain injury (TBI) when a swinging kitchen door fell onto her head at a restaurant in NYC. Since the COVID-19 pandemic, the 'Gut Feeling' podcaster came down with the disease four times. All the while, she still grapples with chronic pain in both her back and neck from a childhood car accident.
'My always-on symptoms, to me, were explainable. I figured I was simply a sometimes unlucky woman in the low-grade health issues department,' continued her lengthy post. 'Or low-grade because everyone else treated them as if they didn't matter much, and that sucking it up was always the right thing to do.'
The California native ends the Substack with her go-forward plan:
'Heal. Pray my symptoms don't come back. Spread awareness. Share my story. Do research. Educate myself. Educate others.'
