LOS ANGELES
Ellen DeGeneres shared a health update with her 92.3 million Instagram followers on Wednesday afternoon, days after revealing she tested positive for the COVID-19.
In a new video on her Instagram, the 62-year-old talk show host thanked fans for their 'well-wishes' amid her battle with the virus and some of its severe symptoms.
Say no to stigmatization
'I'm feeling 100 percent. I feel really good,' she assured listeners, before detailing her experience with ‘excruciating back pain,’ which according to WebMD is a common ailment of coronavirus like abdominal pain, headache, body aches and fatigue.
While she previously hadn't heard or seen back pain listed as a COVID symptom, she said 'other people' have confirmed they experienced it as well to her.
'Who knew? How come?' the comedian asked, as she sat on the couch in a grey and white flannel next to one of her pups, before playing a game of Connect Four.
Last week, the sickened comedian shared a snap of herself curled up with her dog, Wally, in which she looked fatigued as she glanced up at the camera.
'Thank you for all of your sweet messages. They're helping a lot. Wally is helping too.' DeGeneres captioned the image.
