Brandi Glanville, 52, reaches out to Botched star Dr. Terry Dubrow for help with her face and urges people to 'be kind' after claiming swelling was caused by 'a parasite' and 'stress'

As a seasoned medical professional with years of experience under my belt, I must say that Brandi Glanville‘s situation is quite concerning. Her health issues seem to be persistent and complex, which is not uncommon among celebrities who lead hectic lives. The possibility of a parasite or stress-induced angioedema is plausible given her lifestyle and recent events.

Brandi Glanville has sought assistance from renowned plastic surgeon Dr. Terry Dubrow, famously known as one of the stars of the show ‘Botched’, concerning a facial disfigurement she is experiencing.

52-year-old celebrity from “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” left fans astonished this week by sharing an image that was hardly recognizable, reflecting the impact of the skin ailment she was diagnosed with last year.

Later on, Glanville asserted that medical professionals speculated her facial issue could stem from a parasite that was moving across her face or due to stress.

On a Friday update, Glanville posted another Instagram picture showing her puffy face, asking her audience to show compassion.

When someone proposed contacting Dr. Dubrow, a renowned plastic and reconstructive surgeon in America, Glanville responded: “I’ve already made that contact.

Incidentally, Dr. Dubrow shared his opinions regarding Glanfield’s predicament with TMZ, suggesting that her distorted skin and hollowed cheeks were probably due to an infection, not a parasite.

In the latest photo she took, Glanville had a noticeable swelling on one side of her face. Her cheek appeared rounded and sagging.

She titled the photo: ‘Our adventure to the Hamptons with @phaedraparks, @adrianeschwartz and @gretchenrossi kicked off everything – for further details, listen to my upcoming podcast @brandiunfiltered. Always treat people with kindness.’

One fan suggested she take the antiparasitic drug Ivermectin, to which she responded: ‘@shawni_brown I’ve been on ivermectin twice and Enverm which was 2gs a pill twice also hydrochloriquin and Mommebosel etc etc as well as iv antibiotics and soooooo many others for soooo long ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️’.

In response to their compassionate words, I found myself sharing, “While navigating through a challenging time as my dearest friend battles pancreatic cancer, I am reminded daily of the blessings in my life.

Moreover, Glanville expressed her annoyance and inability to find a solution, using an analogy as she penned: ‘It feels like any of my frustrating undiagnosed issues, just like the bullying reindeers in Rudolph.’

I’m heading off to sleep now, but I plan to discuss this topic further with my friend, a seasoned 30-year ER doctor, later tonight on my podcast.

A day prior to Glanville’s post, Dr. Dubrow expressed his worries about Glanville’s alarming statement suggesting that her recent facial deformity could be due to a parasite, which he had brought up in his discussion.

As a lifestyle advisor, I find myself often emphasizing the importance of seeking professional medical advice when necessary. Similar to my experiences on Botched with Dr. Paul Nassif, I strongly advise that if someone’s condition resembles Glanville’s – a potential health concern that could escalate over time – it is crucial to consult with your doctors immediately to ensure proper care and treatment.

He added that, in his opinion, it’s most important to get a doctor to give her a clear diagnosis so that she can treat the root problem.

The plastic surgeon, who is married to Heather Dubrow of Real Housewives Of Orange County, expressed worry that Yolanda Hadid might be experiencing either an infectious issue or an adverse reaction to a substance she received through injection.

Dubrow further explained that it wasn’t Glanville’s fault for being unsure about the cause of her health issues, as he placed the blame on her doctor for lacking a definitive diagnosis and treatment strategy.

Yet, he appeared quite confident that whatever was happening with her wasn’t a parasite and wasn’t due to something she consumed.

Instead, he proposed the idea that it might be a substance that found its way into her bloodstream and implanted a foreign entity.

It struck Dubrow as plausible that Glanville’s self-diagnosis could outpace her doctors’ assessments, given his belief that she might indeed need surgery as she suggested.

He noted that she could have been infected with either mycobacteria or fungi, which could be ‘very difficult to treat.’ 

Dubrow appeared noticeably worried as he described Glanville’s situation as akin to a time bomb, ticking away, since the possible harm could escalate rapidly within a brief span.

He added that antibiotic treatments for mycobacteria or fungus could take six to 12 months, so it would be essential for her to get a solid diagnosis and possibly a skin sample to determine what she was suffering from.

Dubrow concluded the interview by offering the services of himself and his Botched costars. 

On Tuesday, the magazine’s front model chatted with Brice Sander from Entertainment Tonight regarding a recent change in her facial appearance that has been noticeable recently.

A long-time cast member of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills believes she might have the ability to serve as a host for a parasite originating from Mexico.

Eddie Cibrian’s former wife is undergoing a treatment known as ‘a cellular sound procedure’, with the assistance of Dr. Nicholas Nikolov.

The celebrity from reality TV additionally clarified her infrequent appearances in public and the scarcity of updates on her social media platforms.

Brandi too made certain to inform the site about whether or not she’s catching up with the current season of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.

Before, she has claimed to have stress-induced angioedema and said she has lost five teeth.

Last week she shared an image of her swollen complexion over the summer.

She wrote on X: ‘What happened? I wish I knew I’ve been in and out of the hospital this passed year 1/2 spent almost every dollar I have trying to figure it out.

‘According to some doctors, I might have a facial parasite that moves about. Others suggest it could be stress-related swelling. Personally, I believe it’s referred to as ‘Bravo’.’

Previously this year, Brandi publicly pointed fingers at the channel, asserting that the ‘angio-edema caused by stress’ they allegedly inflicted upon her, prevented her from carrying out her duties.

She wrote on X: ‘I read that I wasnt punishment4the false allegations in Morocco.Um I was fired,removed from the cast held hostage in a hotel in Morocco for days! The cast rallied on my side didnt want to continue without me.

‘Cuz of the bad untrue press Ive been canceled from all jobs.

Due to the circumstances, I find myself compelled to take legal action against Bravo. Over the past four days, I’ve gathered receipts as evidence. The stress from this situation has severely affected my health and triggered an uncontrollable angio-edema. This condition has kept me away from work for nearly a year and a half. Consequently, I’m too depressed to continue my podcast or any other commitments like cameos or OnlyFans. I feel exploited and used as a scapegoat in this situation.

I’m deeply yearning to share my receipts on Twitter, but my lawyers are preventing me from doing so. Thank you all for your continued support; it means more than you can imagine. The cast from Morocco has been nothing short of amazing and supportive – I truly adore those girls!” (sic)
