Dancing with the Stars Star Details Health Scare from Illinois Hospital Bed: ‘I'm Just Spinning Everywhere’ In a candid interview, Dancing with the Stars pro Witney Carson opened up about her recent health scare at an Illinois hospital. The 28-year-old dancer revealed that she was rushed to the hospital after experiencing severe stomach pains and vomiting. Carson shared that she initially thought she had food poisoning, but as her symptoms worsened, her partner brought her to the emergency room. "I remember just spinning everywhere," Carson said, recalling the ordeal. "I'm just spinning everywhere, trying to get out of the car... I was in so much pain." According to Carson, doctors at the hospital initially struggled to diagnose her condition, running a series of tests before finally determining that she had a severe case of diverticulitis, an inflammatory condition affecting the lining of the colon. "I remember just feeling like, 'This can't be happening. This is not my life,'" Carson said, reflecting on the experience. "I'm a dancer, I'm supposed to be strong and able-bodied... And then suddenly, I'm lying in a hospital bed, wondering what's going to happen next." Carson praised the medical staff at the Illinois hospital for their care and attention, saying they treated her with compassion and kindness during a difficult time. Despite the scare, Carson is focusing on her recovery and upcoming projects, including an appearance on Dancing with the Stars. "I'm just grateful that it happened when it did," Carson said. "If I had waited another day or two, who knows what could have happened... So, I'm just taking it one day at a time, and I'm just so grateful to be alive."#Dancing_with_the_Stars #Witney_Carson #Illinois_Hospital #Diverticulitis
