Veteran Nollywood actress Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde has opened up about a recent health scare that required emergency surgery to remove her inflamed gall bladder. The actress took to Instagram to share her emotional journey, expressing gratitude for life and good health during a Thanksgiving post.
Omotola revealed that she had been experiencing intense back and chest pains, which led her to visit the ER multiple times. Initially misdiagnosed with high blood pressure and acid reflux, the real issue surfaced after persistent stomach pain and vomiting. A third ER visit confirmed the need for immediate surgery.
“The doctors wondered how I was not in more pain,” she recounted, emphasizing her miraculous resilience throughout the ordeal. Despite the critical condition of her gall bladder, Omotola survived the surgery and is now using her platform to encourage others to be thankful for life and health.
She urged her fans, regardless of their location, to take a moment to reflect on their blessings: “Whether you’re in the US or not, there’s so much to thank God for. Not just life, but good health and the ability to dream of a better day!”
