Bella reposted a series of infographics from @PalestineOnAPlate, listing daily symptoms of Lyme disease. Joudie Kalla, the person behind the @PalestineOnAPlate Instagram, wrote: "What we suffer daily with no cure."

Then, Bella went on to share a more detailed list of the symptoms she suffers, pinpointing headaches, nausea, fatigue, anxiety, irregular heartbeat, and several others.

 

The model wrote, "Every day I feel at least 10 of these attributes without fail ... since I was probably 14, but more aggressively when I turned 18."

This is not the first time Bella has opened up about her struggle with Lyme disease.

 

The model spoke openly about her battle to Porter magazine. At the time, she recalled, "I couldn't get out of bed for six days. My brain would get all foggy, and I couldn't see."

 

Bella said that is was "the hardest time of [her] life."

Bella's mom, Yolanda, and brother, Anwar, also both have Lyme disease. However, this past May, Yolanda shared that she was "95 percent recovered and symptom-free" with The Daily Dish.
