So the word is that rapper Missy Elliot struggles with grave's disease, in which she was diagnosed back in 2008. I am surprised that this disease has not been publicized and that it hasn't been more known that Missy has the disease.
"Graves’ disease — a disorder that affects the thyroid — she tells People magazine, “I was (driving and) trying to put my foot on the brake, but my leg was jumping. I couldn’t keep the brake down and almost crashed. … I couldn’t write because my nervous system was so bad — I couldn’t even use a pen.”
And after suffering a slew of other side effects, including hair loss and mood swings, Elliot turned to radiation, which ultimately improved her condition. “I’m 30 pounds lighter because I’ve been exercising. My thyroid is functioning, so I haven’t had to take medication in about nine months. (But) you live with it for the rest of your life.”(http://bossip.com/403947/stay-healthy-missy-misdemeanor-elliott-battling-graves-disease/) I hope that Missy pushes through and is able to live healthy with this disease. Also I have been waiting a long time for Missy to make a comeback. She has been very lowkey the past few years and I am excited to her what she comes up with these days because you can always depend on Missy to give you a nice track to dance to.
