A Renowned Nollywood actress and producer Ufuoma McDermott has opened up about her battle with Stage 4 kidney disease, sharing how her reliance on painkillers to cope with chronic pain led to a severe health crisis.
In an interview with media personality Chude Jideonwo, McDermott recounted how her health issues began after the tragic death of her younger brother, who also suffered from kidney disease.
McDermott stated that initially she was diagnosed with Stage 3 kidney disease, which then progressed to Stage 4 due to delays in seeking medical attention.
