Popular Nollywood star Sarah Martins reportedly collapsed and was taken to the hospital after a sudden health emergency.
The actress shared details of the frightening incident on her Instagram page, revealing that she woke up unable to feel parts of her body and briefly feared she was lifeless.
Despite the alarming symptoms, Sarah said she still forced herself to go to her shop to take inventory and interview new staff. It was during this process that she reportedly collapsed and was rushed to the hospital.
Doctors reportedly conducted more than 30 medical tests on her, including screenings for cancer, fibroid, kidney and liver function, malaria, and typhoid, but all the results came back negative.
“Woke up today and couldn’t feel any part of my body. For a second, I felt lifeless. I still struggled and went to my stores to do inventory and a few interviews for incoming employees, and that was when I slumped.
“All through December, I worked every single day, and even when my staff travelled for the season celebration, I still kept working. No days off, no stretches, no nothing… just a walking corps working tirelessly to cater for others, forgetting myself.
“I did over 32 tests today, and all came out negative, including cancer, fibroid, liver, kidney, malaria, typhoid, etc. I guess God took proper care of my organs while I neglected my body.
“I am typing this from a sick bed, but I will be fine because the God that protects the vulnerable kids I struggle for will never fail me.
“They said I’m severely exhausted and need proper bed rest. Thank you, Heavenly Father, for your constant protection over my life.” She wrote.
She has reportedly been advised by medical personnel to go on complete rest due to extreme exhaustion, as fans and colleagues continue to flood her page with prayers and well-wishes.
