Singer Jessie J spent her ‘BIG strange, non-traditional Christmas Eve’ treating symptoms of Ménière’s disease, a chronic inner ear disorder that sent her to hospital and during the long holiday weekend brief deafness in one of her ears.
The 32-year-old “Bang Bang” siren explained on Instagram that she woke up on Thursday and felt “completely deaf” in her right ear. She could not walk in a straight line and that it sounded “like someone was walking out of my ear” when she sang loudly.
A representative of Jessie J did not immediately respond to The Times’ request for comment.
According to the Mayo Clinic, the disorder can lead to hearing loss and dizziness. It usually affects one ear, starting at any age, but usually begins between young and middle-aged adulthood. Although there is no cure, different treatments can help relieve the symptoms and reduce the long-term impact.
“I know a lot of people suffer from it, and I’ve actually contacted a lot of people to me and given advice, so I just kept quiet,” she told ET Canada. .
“This is the first time I can sing and carry it,” she said. ‘It could be a lot worse, that’s what it is. I am very grateful for my health. It just threw me off. ”
Jessie J said that she spent Christmas Eve in the hospital, got medicine and that she felt ‘much better’. Good enough, it seems, to post a video on Sunday in which she crowns that she ‘can’t stop eating’. ”
Her other activities included sending text messages to friends and family in England, saturating herself with coconut oil and once again watching the Netflix series ‘The Queen’s Gambit’ with her finger.
‘I did the first episode 4 times because I [have] zero focus and my ear sounds like someone crawling in and turning on a hair dryer, ‘she wrote, adding:’ LOVE send to everyone who needs it or not. We all need extra love. This Christmas may be a little off. BUT one in a lifetime is not bad if some people have not had one good one in their lifetime yet. ‘
