Serena WilliamsHer husband, Alexis Ohanian, was diagnosed with Lyme disease, which he said came as a bit of a shock to him.

of Reddit The co-founder, 41, explained his health condition in a series of posts on X/.twitter He said he was informed of his diagnosis by doctors on Tuesday after undergoing multiple medical procedures.

“I went through all the medical tests and testing and stuff and it turned out I had Lyme disease,” the tech entrepreneur said. She has two children with the tennis star.“Wild. Thankfully he’s symptom-free but we’re going to treat him.”

Ohanian explained the intricate details behind his diagnosis: “My good cholesterol is too low. My bad cholesterol is just okay. I need to improve it. On the positive side, my total cholesterol is 822 ng/dL and my free testosterone is 162 ng/dL.”

Ohanian said the diagnosis came as a surprise because although he has a family history linked to the disease, he was not in a group geographically susceptible to it.

Serena Williams’ husband, Alexis Ohanian, 41, was diagnosed with Lyme disease, which came as a bit of a shock to him. Pictured here with their 6-year-old daughter Olympia at the ESPY Awards on July 11.

“A few years ago a loved one of mine had it and was showing a lot of symptoms etc but had no idea what it was until he was tested and found out he had it (and was successfully treated). This was quite a surprise for me as I don’t spend much time in nature or in the Northeast,” Ohanian said.

Ohanian said he would be “taking antibiotics” to fight the disease, adding, along with a picture of the cartoon character “The Tick”, “You can’t let me down, Tick!”

Ohanian stressed to his 563,700 followers on the platform that he was not offering health advice to the general public regarding Lyme disease, saying, “Consult your doctor! Don’t ask me for health advice!”

Mayo Clinic It describes Lyme disease as “a disease caused by the Borrelia bacteria,” adding that “Humans usually become infected with Lyme disease through the bite of a tick that carries the bacteria.”

The clinic noted that “ticks that carry Borrelia are present in most parts of the United States,” but that the disease is “most prevalent in the upper Midwest, Northeast and mid-Atlantic states” in the United States, and “is also found in Europe, south-central and southeastern Canada.”

He said people are at higher risk of infection if they “spend time in areas where ticks live, such as grass, shrubs and woodland,” and the best way to prevent infection is to “avoid tick bites when outdoors.”

of CDC “A potential 476,000 people are diagnosed with and treated for Lyme disease in the United States each year,” he said, adding that the total includes “people who are treated based on clinical suspicion but do not actually have Lyme disease.”

of Government agency He said most cases “can be treated with a 10-14 day course of antibiotics,” doing so “early in the stage” of the illness can lead to a quick and complete recovery.

The Reddit co-founder detailed his health struggles in a series of X/Twitter posts on Tuesday.

The disease has at times been a controversial topic, with a January 2023 report stating: American Medical Association “There is a lack of evidence-based guidance on how to care for people with persistent symptoms and increasing misinformation makes treatment difficult,” it said.

“Some patients believe their persistent symptoms are due to Lyme disease, even when they have no evidence that they have the disease,” the AMA noted.

“When patients do not exhibit the classic symptoms of Lyme disease and symptoms persist, the clinical picture becomes much more unclear,” said Grace Marx, MD, MPH, an epidemiologist in the CDC’s vector-borne diseases division.

“The term ‘chronic Lyme disease’ is not clearly defined and is used as a catch-all term by patients, clinicians and the general public, often to include people who have never received a definite diagnosis of acute Lyme disease,” Marx said.

Ohanian said: Their health as they battle Lyme disease.

Other Yolanda Hadid from the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Her daughter, model Bella Hadid, has also spoken openly about her own struggles with the disease.

Yolanda said in 2021 that she suffered from severe depression. With symptoms piling up for nearly 10 years,.

Bella Hadid said last year that she had undergone 100 days of treatment in her nearly 15-year battle with the disease.

  • Additional rashes

  • Palpitations
