Kris Aquino makes a social media update after many months of silence.

The TV host actress posted a photo of her two sons, Josh Aquino and Bimby-Aquino Yap, with an update of her health status in the caption. Kris explained that she waited until she had a definite health update before posting on social media.

"It's been a few months…I didn't want to post until I had definite info as my update. 1st THANK YOU for praying for me, for us."

"Thank you Minister Joji & my INC friends for making the trip to anoint me w/ healing oil, sharing the Biblical healing verses that I now include in my daily prayers. Thank you to my friends, the Carmelite sisters in Quezon who include me in their daily prayers. And a special THANK YOU to Archbishop Soc."

She then narrated her treatment plan for her autoimmune disorders.

Kris wrote, "It's step 1 on what will likely be more than 18 months of diagnosis & treatment. I'm signed up in a hospital's Center for those with Rare & Undiagnosed illnesses. My last set of test results were conflicting; that's why I chose to have my full diagnosis & treatment with a team of multidisciplinary doctors."

Kris also revealed the challenges she faced in finding the right treatment suitable for her.

"Iba ang process dito. My 1st step was submitting all my medical records from 2018 when my autoimmune was 1st diagnosed in Singapore; I had a teleconsult w/ the assigned doctor-coordinator for me, then we'll do a video consultation in 2 weeks. I'll be admitted early 2023 to undergo every imaginable test they'll deem necessary."

Kris also shared that her case is rare, after doctors found out that she has multiple autoimmune conditions and over 100 allergies to medication.

"After my results, the team shall decide what treatment will be best because the coordinator admitted I'm a “challenge” since I'm allergic to so many types of medicine including all steroids. Pang case study daw ako- 1 person with multiple autoimmune conditions & over 100 known allergic or adverse reactions to medication."

For the meantime, Kris said she'll be staying in the U.S. for further health care.

"We already filed our papers with U.S. immigration to extend our stay. Bawal umalis ng 🇺🇸 until the extension is granted. We miss our family & so many of you."

Nonetheless, the celebrity mom remains motivated to get better, citing her children as her inspiration.

"I posted a picture of kuya & bimb- they are my REASONS kung bakit TULOY ANG LABAN, BAWAL SUMUKO: tinitiis yung matinding sakit [sagad sa buto] while allergic to all pain relievers; the constant fatigue, awful sense of balance, nonstop dry cough & shortness of breath; yung sobrang pag-iingat [I'm so immunocompromised- since June i've NEVER been to a restaurant, NEVER entered a store, supermarket, or a mall]."

"I pray for the blessing to be healthy enough to still be their mama-the one who would cook, travels for fun, goes to Church, and watches movies w/ them. All in God's perfect time…Happy Thanksgiving."
