In December, Dion opened up to fans about her health, revealing she has been diagnosed with the rare neurological disease Stiff Person Syndrome.
In an emotional Instagram video, Céline said she would not be able to restart her European tour in February as planned.
Recently, I’ve been diagnosed with a very rare neurological condition called Stiff Person Syndrome, which affects something like one in a million people.
While we’re still learning about this rare condition, we now know that this is what has been causing all of the spasms that I’ve been having.
The Stiff Person Research Foundation describes the condition as “a neurological disease with autoimmune features. Symptoms include muscle spasms, hyper-rigidity, debilitating pain, and chronic anxiety. Muscle spasms can be so violent they can dislocate joints and even break bones.”
The Foundation says the disease is often misdiagnosed and “patients can be disabled, wheelchair bound or bedridden, unable to work and care for themselves.”
Céline continued;
I have a great team of doctors working alongside me to help me get better, and my precious children who are supporting me and giving me hope. I’m working hard with my sports medicine therapists every day to build back my strength and my ability to perform again. But I have to admit it’s been a struggle.
