Brandi Glanville has given fans an update following comments from a doctor who has weighed in on her current medical issues.

Earlier this month, the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star stunned fans after sharing a selfie and going on to explain the health issues she has been dealing with.

The former model, 52, announced on Instagram that she was returning to Cameo after dealing with health issues for 'over a year'.

She later followed up to clarify that the video she'd used to promote her return was an 'old cameo', before sharing an updated photo of what she looks like now.

"Let me share what I look like & why I had to take a pause... check next post & f**king suck it haters," she said.

She went on to say that she had been in and out of hospital and racking up a hefty $70,000 bill trying to pinpoint the issues she is facing. She has also lost five teeth due to this health issue.

As well as this, she also explained doctors have suggested that she may be suffering with a parasite jumping around her face.

This news caught the attention of one doctor, Dr. Terry Dubrow who relayed his own concerns for Glanville and went as far as to call the issue a ‘ticking time bomb’.

He told TMZ Glanville's health issues were probably not the result of a parasite and likely stemmed from 'an infectious process or a foreign body reaction to something she's had injected'.

He added: "There are these two kinds of microorganisms, one's called a Microbacterium and the other is called a fungus, and they can be very difficult to treat and could take six to 12 months of antibiotics to treat."

Writing on Twitter on December 13, Glanville said: “I have zero drama with Dr Dubrow, I appreciate all the help I can get.

“We have been in touch and plan to talk thank you for all the love.

“All fillers that were in my face have been dissolved. I have seen all the best doctors at cedar Sinai & all the doctors they referred me to.”

In his initial comments, Dr Dubrow didn't specify what kind of injection could result in such symptoms.

He said: "Brandi needs a diagnosis, she has to figure out if there's a microorganism in there.

"Every minute that that microorganism is allowed in her skin and do potential damage, she could suffer worse for it, it could be more difficult to treat and she could form more scars”
