Bettina Carlos Experiences Intense Stress-Related Headache
Actress Bettina Carlos recently endured a frightening health scare over the Mother’s Day weekend, caused by overwhelming stress. She opened up about the ordeal on her Instagram page, sharing how severe stress triggered a debilitating tension headache.
“I thought this was going to be my last Mother’s Day. I didn’t know so much stress could actually lead to this kind of headache called a tension headache. My head never hurt like this my whole life! After 2 ER visits in 12hrs and a very scary MRI for this claustrophobic, I still feel like mamatay ako everytime I sit up,” Bettina revealed.
Medical Results and Emotional Challenges
Fortunately, the scans came back negative for serious issues, showing only muscle spasms. Yet, the physical pain was not Bettina’s only challenge during this difficult time.
She expressed how heartbreaking it was to see her two children sleeping on the sofa, possibly worried that she might be suddenly taken to the hospital. Despite the anxiety, she remains deeply thankful to the friends who stepped in to care for and watch over her kids.
Learning to Manage Stress Better
These experiences have prompted Bettina to rethink how she handles stress moving forward. She found comfort in witnessing her eldest daughter rise to the occasion, taking care of her younger sister. “It was also such a blessing seeing our panganay rise up and really take care of her sissy. Napakatimely din that all this happened while Amina’s yaya was on a day off for mothers day and elections… it was just us and God in and through our community,” she shared.
Ending on a note of gratitude, Bettina said, “Thank you Lord You are [still] so good, always good.”
