About Samantha's auto-immune condition Myositis

Last year in November, Samantha took to Instagram and revealed that she has been suffering from a rare auto-immune disease called Myositis. Ever since then, the actress has been sharing updates about her health every now and then. From working on strength in the gym to taking injections, the actress is on a road to recovery from her myositis. 

Samantha also clarified that her disease is not life-threatening to what a few publications are writing. “I want to clear up one thing. I saw a lot of articles describing my condition as life-threatening. The stage I’m in, it’s not life-threatening. At the moment, I’m not dead yet. I don’t think those headlines were very necessary,” she said.

Myositis is the name for a group of rare conditions. The main symptoms are weak, painful or aching muscles. Myositis is usually caused by a problem with your immune system, where it mistakenly attacks healthy tissue.
