Mackenzie McKee has struggled with diabetes for 10 years – and the disease landed her in the hospital with complications. Click through to get all the details on the Teen Mom 3 star’s condition.
Reports claim the MTV star was rushed to the hospital at 10pm after she was throwing up throughout the night. Mackenzie discovered her blood sugar was “dangerously high.”
The mother-of-two is still at the hospital, as doctors are working on stabilizing her sugar levels.
The TM3 star recently opened up about her decade-long battle with the illness. “I turn 21 this month, and that marks a whole decade I have been diagnosed with this disease,” she wrote on Instagram. “10 years of trial and error, 10 years of trying to figure it all out. I pray to God for no more sickness every day. I turned to fitness and health, reaching out to help others everyday. I have breakdowns when things just are not going right. I know there is a big reason God gave me this disease I just don't understand why yet. I will figure it out to a T and then the next month I'm back to being sick again without changing a thing. I meet some diabetics who can eat 1 candy bar and be fine, where I can eat half a granola bar and be sick as a dog for the rest of the day.”
The fitness model has even turned to her fans for help, asking their opinions on a treatment for the disease. “I have refused to go to a pump and always told myself I can do life without one,” she continued. “How do you feel about switching from shots to a pump. What has it done for you or a loved one? So thoughts and opinions would be appreciated as I'm finally getting over myself and considering a pump.”
