Loose Women's Nadia Sawalha has issued a health plea to her social media followers after she shared photos of herself in a hospital bed. The 57-year-old urged her fans to pay attention to their health and to get any worrying symptoms checked out by professionals.
In one of the snaps, Nadia could be seen lying under a blanket on her hospital bed while a second saw the Loose Women panellist posing for the camera in her hospital gown, donning long surgical stockings on her legs, which she had propped up on a hospital bed next to her.
Sharing the post to her 519,000 followers, she wrote: "The only reason I’m posting these pics is because I want to catch your eye and urge you if you have been worrying about any symptoms you’ve been experiencing to bite the bullet and get yourself seen!
"Delaying things will only cause more worry." She went on to explain: "I’m not going to lie I’ve been worried sick myself recently but was given the all-clear on Monday! I only wish I had dealt with it earlier so I didn’t get myself into such a pickle. Don’t delay make the call. Get seen. You know it makes sense."
The former EastEnders actress also included the hashtags #womenshealth, #hysteroscopy, and #wombwellness, appeared to suggest to fans that she had undergone a hysteroscopy – a procedure that examines the inside of the womb.
Despite sharing the positive news of being given the all-clear, her followers were quick to flood her with support. @sarah.fox33 said: "Always glamorous, even in adversity. So pleased all is well." @mr_bojangles_the_mini wrote: "Not a nice procedure but well worth it to get the result hoped for. So pleased you are all good."
@tinaharvey28 posted: "Sending you lots of love and hugs." @gealamanda replied: "Great to hear you’ve got good results my lovely! And well done for getting this message out there … wise lady." @journeytomendabrokenheart added: "Glad you have the all clear, I hope you get better soon! And good message to never ignore anything that doesn’t feel right."
