Erin Moriarty has revealed she’s been diagnosed with Graves’ disease.
On Thursday, the main actor from “The Boys” posted an update about her health on Instagram. In this post, she disclosed that following her diagnosis, her strength has been steadily growing.
Approximately a month ago, I was diagnosed with Graves’ disease. Just hours after starting my treatment, I felt the first glimmers of improvement returning. Since then, it has been getting brighter and brighter for me. If your light seems to be fading, even just a little bit, don’t hesitate to get checked out. Don’t try to bear it all on your own or endure pain; you deserve comfort. Life is already tough enough.
In the game-related update Moriarty posted, she included a snapshot of a chat with her mom where she admitted, “I’m dead serious; I’m in real need of some respite. Tonight, I’m feeling queasy. I feel absolutely terrible and disconnected from who I truly am. I can’t keep living like this forever.
Later on, Moriarty mused about her time before the diagnosis, expressing, “Had I not attributed everything to stress and exhaustion, I might have detected this earlier.
Every person’s autoimmune disease can present uniquely. So, your journey with this condition won’t be the same as mine. Similarly, my experiences may differ significantly or slightly from yours.
Graves’ disease is a health condition where the immune system impacts the thyroid gland, leading to an excess production of thyroid hormones. Notably, this disease tends to occur more frequently in females and individuals older than 30 years.
As a devoted fan, I’ve been thrilled to see Erin Moriarty shine as Annie January/Starlight in Eric Kripke’s gripping superhero drama, “The Boys,” since its initial season. It’s been nearly a year since the show wrapped up its fourth season, and although we haven’t received any formal updates yet, it’s been announced that the fifth season will mark the end of this incredible series.
