Xtatic’s Husband Mushking hospitalized With Rare Nerve Disorder

TV producer and music video director King “Mushking” Muriuki has been hospitalized after being diagnosed with Miller Fisher Syndrome.

Mushking, who has married rapper Gloria Mecheo alias Xtatic and is know for such works as ‘XYZ’ (an animation director) and other several TV shows from Buni TV, has been sick for almost a week now according to his wife as doctors continue to figure out how they can help him fight the nerve disease.

Characterized by abnormal muscle coordination, paralysis of the eye muscles, and absence of the tendon reflexes, Miller Fisher Syndrome is a very rare disease that takes at least 6 months to recover from.

“Hey good people, Thank you for all the DMs and well wishes for King.  Some of you have obviously been asking what MFS or Miller Fisher Syndrome is. First of all, for those who don’t know, King has been in hospital for the past week. It all started by him waking up and having blurry vision and noticed loss of balance as well, which progressed to difficulty in breathing, slurry speech, and a bit of feeling like his face was numb.” Xtatic said on social media.

“He was seen by a couple of specialists. A lot of tests were run. And in the end, a team of neurologists diagnosed him with Miller Fisher Syndrome, which is a rare variant of Guillain-Barré Syndrome, which is an auto immune reaction where the body’s immune system produces antibodies to destroy infectious agent’s but the antibodies produced also cross-react with normal cell structures and attack them as well, demylinating the nerves.”

Xtatic shared that Mushking has been in hospital for the past week and he is being closely monitored in the High-Dependency Unit(HDU).

“So currently, he is still in hospital, closely being monitored, especially because of the difficulty in breathing at times. And for those texting and calling, he can’t read the texts because he still can’t see. But can hear. And also he can’t move without assistance. And he is in HDU and they’ve not allowed any phone, hence can’t pick any calls as of the moment. And probably won’t be available for some time. Thank you for your well wishes. Have a great week ahead.”
