In a new video, the reality star explained that she has been having blood tests for the last five years which have consistently come back with worrying results – including a low white blood cell count.
Erica recently underwent yet another blood test and was met with the same results.
After being told by doctors that they don’t know the reason for the abnormalities in her results, Erica explained that she’s feeling sick of the ongoing situation.
“It’s just frustrating because I really feel like I’ve been trying to change my lifestyle, do what I can to be healthy and just try to figure out what’s going on with my body and It’s just frustrating, I feel like I’ve been the healthiest that I’ve ever been in my whole entire life, so why are my levels dropping?

“Why is it getting worse? I just don’t know what to do anymore, it’s so frustrating,” said Erica with tears in her eyes.
She continued: “This has been going on for five years, like, every single time I get my bloods done with my doctor I’m like, ‘What can we do?’ and they’re just like, ‘Oh we’ll just keeping checking it’ and I just don’t feel like that’s good enough.”
The emotional star explained that undergoing a blood panel test with private brand Biosensitive meant she was able to see her results more in depth – and has caused her to become more worried about the situation.
“Now I know that I just need to push my GP or just go private because there is clearly something going on and it needs to be fixed,” said Erica.
