In her latest video, the uber-popular Twitch streamer says she\u2019s been working on building healthy habits, such as journaling, meditating, and taking walks. However, she also revealed that she\u2019s been dealing with some health complications during this time and shared what she\u2019s doing to help herself. Pokimane opens up about health issues with fans In an October 4 YouTube video, Anys explained that she began experiencing a ringing in her right ear at night time about a month ago. Concerned, she went to two separate doctors who prescribed her with different medications, thinking it could be either an inner ear infection or simple congestion. Unfortunately, these medications didn\u2019t help her problem and even exacerbated the ringing, making her life a \u201cliving hell for like a week.\u201d \u201cI heard ringing all the time. I couldn\u2019t sleep well. I couldn\u2019t do much of anything. I was so down. I had no appetite. I felt like utter doo-doo,\u201d she claimed. After okaying it with her doctors, Poki quit all her medication and went to a TMJ specialist, who theorized that her tinnitus was likely a result of inflammation in her jaw on her right side. To help this, Pokimane\u2019s doctor prescribed her with what she calls \u201cfake teeth,\u201d which she wears over her real teeth to \u201chelp bring my jaw and my teeth into a position that is good for your breathing and your general day-to-day activities.\u201d (Topic begins at 2:23) Although it\u2019s difficult to tell in her video, Anys claims that the fake teeth are longer than her real ones and says she\u2019s giving them a trial run for the next several weeks. Pokimane\u2019s latest tell-all follows her decision to step away from the drama on Twitch and focus on other avenues of content creation like her YouTube channel, where she\u2019s shared her daily life with fans \u2014 including opening up about health issues like this one.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
