Reality television personality Brandi Glanville continues to battle complex medical diagnoses, including Coccidioidomycosis (Valley Fever), Demodex dermatitis, Mononucleosis, and highly resistant ESBL Klebsiella and Enterobacter with biofilm. Glanville has reported a “fungal ball” in her face that she believes is active, stating it “moves when it wants.” Her treatment is intensive, involving up to 20 hours of daily IV infusions. To address ongoing facial disfigurement, Glanville has scheduled invasive exploratory surgery with Dr. Carlo Henrado to investigate suspicious areas beneath her skin that may contain “fungal balls or something alive.” This procedure will involve surgical tools and a platelet treatment using her own blood. Glanville noted that the symptoms began in her cheek and jaw before spreading to her head, neck, and spine, and she suspects the condition may have originated during a 2023 trip to Morocco. Financial strain remains a critical issue. Glanville reported medical bills reaching approximately $7,000 per week, leading to frequent calls from creditors and fears that unpaid costs could jeopardize her access to essential medication. A GoFundMe campaign launched by her friend, Gina Rodriguez, has received contributions from fellow ‘Real Housewives’ alumni, including Kyle Richards and Vicki Gunvalson, to help meet a $28,000 goal. In addition to her primary diagnoses, Glanville recently sought urgent care after a garlic clove became lodged in her ear during an unconventional attempt to treat congestion. She also noted that her health struggles have led to significant social isolation, with much of her time spent managing treatments at home.
