Jenna Jameson finally updates her fans on her health: 'I am still in a wheelchair'
Jenna Jameson finally took to Instagram after being released from the hospital following a lengthy stay to let followers know how she was feeling. Despite being released, Jameson has yet to get an official diagnosis for her problems. According to Page Six, she is still unable to move and has been just resting at home. Jameson revealed, “I still have more testing to do but it seems there's something off with my femoral nerve, and it's affecting my strength in my legs so I am still in a wheelchair, unfortunately, but I hope to be out of the wheelchair soon and walking, so say a little prayer.”
Jenna Jameson, a former adult film star, was admitted to the hospital for over a month in January, according to Page Six. Jameson was mistakenly diagnosed with Guillain-Barré syndrome when her health began to deteriorate. Guillain-Barré syndrome is "a rare, autoimmune disorder in which a person's own immune system damages the nerves." according to the CDC.

Initially, this diagnosis looked to match Jameson's symptoms, which included weight loss, nausea, reduced mobility, and exhaustion, according to Newsweek at the time. Lior Bitton, Jameson's long-term companion, revealed to the star's followers in early February that the diagnosis was inaccurate. "It was confirmed by the doctor after a second test and five rounds of IVIG," Bitton stated.
Earlier, Bitton vowed to keep Jameson's admirers up to date on her condition, and he did so. "Her muscles in her legs were very weak. So she wasn't able to walk to the bathroom," Bitton talked at beginning of the ordeal. He went on to say, "she was falling on the way back or to the bathroom, I would have to pick her up and carry her to bed. And then within two days, it got really not so good, her legs started to not hold her, she wasn't able to walk." According to Yahoo! News, she also stated that her legs had grown extremely thin and that she lacked quad strength. Despite the fact that she is now at ease at home, Jameson is still awaiting formal treatment as physicians continue their hunt for a definitive diagnosis.
