Celine Dion Diagnosed With Incurable Disease
Celine Dion, a legendary singer, has been identified as having the incurable condition stiff person syndrome (SPS).
Her muscles tense up uncontrollably as a result of the disease.

Despite the fact that there is no treatment to reverse the condition, Celine says she is doing everything in her power to lessen symptoms.

In a tearful Instagram post on Thursday, the 54-year-old singer apologized to her followers and said she had to postpone her European tour due to it.
Celine Dion has Stiff Person Syndrome (SPS), which is heartbreaking because it results in her muscles tensing up uncontrollably.
“Hello everyone, I apologise for taking so long to get in touch with you,” she wrote. I am so excited to see you all on stage and talk to you in person because I miss you all so much.
You already know that I have always been honest, so now that I am ready, I will say anything.
It has been extremely difficult for me to face my challenges and to talk about everything that I have been through because I have been dealing with health issues for a very long time.
I recently learned that I have the stiff person syndrome, a very rare neurological condition that affects 1 in a million people.
Even though we are still learning about this uncommon condition, we now know it is the reason for all the spasms I have been experiencing.
Unfortunately, these spasms interfere with every aspect of my daily life, occasionally making it difficult for me to walk and preventing me from using my vocal chords to sing as I normally would.
More on Celine Dion condition
I am sorry to inform you that I will not be prepared to resume my European tour in February as a result of this.
My precious children are supporting me and helping me, and I have an excellent team of doctors working with me to get better.
Every day, I put in a lot of effort with the help of my sports medicine therapist to regain my strength and performability, but I have to admit, it is been difficult.
I have spent my entire life singing, and it is what I love doing the most.
I always give my all when I perform for you, but my condition now allows me to give you that right now. I miss seeing all of you on stage performing for you.
I have to focus on my health right now in order to get in touch with you again, and I have faith that I am on the road to recovery.
My attention is on this, and I am making every effort to recover.
I want to express my gratitude for your kind words, support, and well wishes on my social media. I greatly value this. Take care of one another. Good luck. I adore you all so much and sincerely hope to see you soon.
When the Legendary Singer, Celine Dion started getting the symptoms
When she postponed the North American dates of her Courage world tour from March 9 to April 22, Celine gave her first indication that she was having health problems.
According to a press release on her website, “severe and persistent muscle spasms” forced her to cancel the shows.
Three months prior, she had to postpone the beginning of her Las Vegas comeback residency due to the same health problem.
Celine recently underwent treatment for severe and persistent muscle spasms that prevent her from performing, and her recovery is taking longer than she had hoped, according to a statement on her website.
“Her medical staff continues to assess and manage the condition,” it says.
I was really hoping that I would be ready to go by now, but I guess I just have to be more patient and follow the regimen that my doctors are recommending, the patient woman admitted.
‘There is a lot of planning and preparation that goes into our shows, so we have to make decisions today that will affect the plans two months from now,’ the legendary singer continued. I can not wait to return to the stage once more and am so happy to regain my full health along with everyone else.
Meanwhile, I have been deeply moved by all the supportive messages that everyone has been sending my way on social media, she continued. Your love and support mean the world to me, and I can feel them.
Due to her wildly popular residencies there over the past couple of decades, Celine earned the title “Queen Of Las Vegas.”
She was persuaded to return to Sin City in 2019 after ending her illustrious Caesars Palace residency to perform at the brand-new Resorts World on the Strip.
