Sutton Stracke FINALLY reveals what caused her medical emergency during RHOBH reunion: ‘It took about six weeks to feel 100 percent again’

Sutton Stracke finally revealed what caused her medical emergency while taping the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills season 13 reunion.

Just weeks after denying on social media that the health scare was linked to alcohol, the TV personality, 52, shared what caused her to shake violently and struggle to breathe alongside her castmates during the three-part reunion.

After being rushed to the emergency room via ambulance, the reality star said Page six that she had been diagnosed with exhaustion and dehydration.

‘I ended up suffering from exhaustion, which sounds stupid, but it’s true. And dehydration,” she explained.

The Georgia native explained, “I was working a lot between New York and LA, back and forth, working on my new company, Sutton Brands.”

Additionally, she eventually suffered a “severe case” of bronchitis, which delayed her recovery.

‘I was really down for about ten days. I had to close my life, which is very difficult for me,” she admitted. “And it took about six weeks for me to feel 100 percent again.”

Air travel can be extremely dehydrating.

Even mild cases of dehydration can cause headaches, dizziness and fatigue.

Meanwhile, fatigue symptoms, which range from physical, mental and emotional, can include chronic fatigue, sore or sore muscles, slowed reflexes and moodiness.

Reflecting on the terrifying ordeal, Stracke said host Andy Cohen “called the doctors properly” before waiting for a doctor to decide whether she needed to go to the hospital.

“I ended up going to the emergency room with really one of my best friends, Garcelle (Beauvais),” she noted. “She stayed with me in the emergency room the entire time, which I can’t thank her enough for.”

Her medical emergency, which occurred during filming, will air on Wednesday’s third and final episode of the RHOBH reunion.

In teasers of the moment, Cohen appears visibly concerned for Stracke and began fanning her with his cue cards.

He also pointed out that she was shaking and “really shaking.”

“Can we please call someone?” Beauvais asked.

After the event, Stracke said that “it was a reality check for how” she should “treat” her body.

“It was a very scary moment for me,” she explained.

In February, Stracke quickly shut down speculation that her medical emergency was alcohol-related.

In response to a tweet insinuating that the socialite appeared to be showing signs of alcohol withdrawal, the mother of three quickly denied that her symptoms were caused by detoxing from the booze.

‘That wasn’t the problem. Stop this false narrative,” she told the social user, who has since deleted their tweet asking if her “tremors” were a “sign of alcohol withdrawal.”

Sutton previously revealed she has an esophageal ‘condition’ that can cause her to ‘choke’ when swallowing food or even her own saliva.
