Maria Kanellis back home following hospital readmission, shares health update

  • Ian Carey

Maria Kanellis is back home after having been re-admitted to hospital recently.

Kanellis had surgery to remove a mass found on her adrenal gland last week. She was able to leave the hospital on Saturday but returned on Sunday due to experiencing pain and nausea.

Kanellis posted to Instagram on Wednesday, revealing she’s home once again:

“I made it HOME!!! What a crazy week.
Thank GOD for my family!! Thank GOD for my church @crossbridge.church!!! Thank you for the amazing team at @rushuniversity!!! Thank you for my children’s school for giving the kiddos extra care!!! Thank you @tonyrkhan for the amazing flowers and the @aew staff for the support during this time!!! Thank you to The Undisputed Kingdom!! Thank you to everyone that reached out!!! Feeling very blessed and grateful to be alive!!!
Biopsy and Genetic Testing should be back in a few more days…

She would later post to X, “The Rush medical team’s working theory is I had 3 different types of headaches/migraines. Sinus, tension/nerve, and withdrawal from the loss of my adrenal gland. I am currently taking muscle relaxers, Advil, Tylenol, caffeine, tramadol, anti-nausea, and nerve pain medication. At one point yesterday they thought I was leaking spinal fluid which was not the case. My MRI with contrast showed I have one vertebrae pushing backward. Which is part of the problem but not the whole problem. I will start physical therapy soon, be on allergy medication, and will be monitoring my blood work for my hormone levels. Hopefully the genetics and biopsy come back with good news. It’s going to be a bit of a long road but I’m used to traveling.”

Doctors were unable to perform a biopsy on the mass found on Kanellis’ adrenal gland until after it was removed. She wrote in her post that she should get the results back in a few days to learn if the mass was cancerous or not.

Today is also the last day of Kanellis’ contract with AEW. Earlier this month, she revealed that her deal expires at the end of October.
