Popular singer Justin Timberlake has revealed that he is living with Lyme disease. The musician recently shared that he was super shocked to receive the diagnosis.
Sharing via his Instagram page following the conclusion of his “Forget Tomorrow” world tour, Timberlake said that the disease has been causing him intense nerve pain from time to time.

Revealing that he sometimes feels fatigued while performing on stage as well, he disclosed that it almost forced him to end his latest tour early.
The “Cry Me A River” artist, however, stated that he eventually found the strength to keep going.
Emphasising that he isn’t making the announcement to gain pity, Justin stressed that he only wanted his fans to know what is going on behind the scenes.
“As many of you know, I’m a pretty private person. But as I’m reflecting on the tour and festival tour – I want to tell you a little bit about what’s going on with me.
Among other things, I’ve been battling some health issues, and was diagnosed with Lyme disease – which I don’t say so you feel bad for me – but to shed some light on what I’ve been up against behind the scenes,” he wrote.
Revealing that living with Lyme disease can be very exhausting physically and mentally, Timberlake noted that the joy that performing brings ended up outweighing the stress his body was feeling.
He concluded by saying that he’ll keep trying to be more transparent about his struggles so they are not misinterpreted.
“If you’ve experienced this disease or know someone who has – then you’re aware: living with this can be relentlessly debilitating, both mentally and physically.
Not only did I prove my mental tenacity to myself but, I now have so many special moments with all of you that I will never forget,” he added.
