Zara posted a selfie from her hospital bed for her 1.7 million followers, looking flushed as she lay in bed.
Describing the night as “eventful”, the former Love Island star explained that her boyfriend Sam Thompson rushed her to the medical centre.
She wrote: ‘Wow, it was so eventful last night! Sam had to rush me to the ER because he had excruciating pain in his abdomen…he had a feeling it was a burst cyst on his ovary because he had had it before on the other side and it felt extremely similar.’
Update: After giving an update, Zara confirmed that her ovary is not twisted, but doctors did find blood in her abdomen.
Supportive: Describing the night as ‘eventful’, the former Love Island star explained that her boyfriend Sam Thompson rushed her to the medical centre.
After thanking the medical team who treated her, the star continued, “I just want to say the A&E team was just AMAZING.” They saw me very quickly and had all my tests and scans done within 2 hours of being there.
“They wanted to keep me overnight, but after all the pain relief I felt much better, so I had a few hours in bed before coming back this morning for some more scans. They want to make sure my ovary isn’t crooked since I was showing all the symptoms last night. But it is likely that the cyst will rupture, which if you have had it before is UNFORGETTABLE.
Giving an update later, Zara confirmed that her ovary is not twisted, but doctors found blood in her abdomen.
Happening again: Zara previously suffered from a burst cyst in 2018, explaining at the time: “I threw up about 11 times in a very short space of time, it was ridiculous.” I was getting very anxious about what was happening’
Thanks for your messages guys!!! They found blood in my abdomen, which indicates that it is a burst cyst and nothing else; the good thing is that my ovary looks good and is not crooked,’ he wrote.
He continued: “So lucky to have such an amazing NHS – they were so brilliant and now I’m going to have a relaxing weekend.”
An ovarian cyst is a fluid-filled sac that develops in a woman’s ovary, they are very common and usually do not cause any symptoms unless they burst, which can block the blood supply to the ovaries.
