LateToCult 40,910 Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 (Changed the title because I saw Chi Chi’s video where they explicitly say they started dialysis because of their kidneys) The American drag queen, real name Zavion Davenport, revealed that while she’d tested negative for coronavirus, she’s still undergoing tests to understand why her blood pressure is high. Addressing her fans in a video shared on Instagram, Chi Chi began: ‘So I just wanted to give everyone an update. ‘I tested negative for Covid, so I don’t have that, but I have high blood pressure and they’ve said that I’m going through kidney failure. ‘So tomorrow they’re going to give me a biopsy on my kidneys and let me know what it is that’s making my blood pressure so high, so I just want to say that I love you guys.’ In 2018, Chi Chi was diagnosed with scleroderma, an uncommon condition that results in hard, thickened areas of skin and sometimes problems with internal organs and blood vessels.

calmar 22,118 Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 I've dealt with kidney failure. Blood pressure is definitely part of it. I wonder if they have fluid retention, fatigue, strange food cravings, and/or other symptoms of it. It's definitely beatable. 俺の勝利は揺るぎない Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
