Daisy Ridley diagnosed with Graves' disease
Star Wars actress reveals diagnosis in Women's Health interview
Ridley, 32, opens up about her experience with the autoimmune disorder
Daisy Ridley has revealed that she was diagnosed with Graves' disease last year. The 32-year-old British actress, best known for her portrayal of Rey in the Star Wars sequel trilogy, spoke about her experience with the autoimmune disorder in an interview with Women's Health.
Ridley said that she was first diagnosed with Graves' disease in 2021, after she began experiencing a range of symptoms, including weight loss, anxiety, and fatigue. She said that she was initially "in denial" about her diagnosis, but that she has since come to terms with her condition.
Graves' disease is an autoimmune disorder that affects the thyroid gland. It causes the thyroid to produce too much thyroid hormone, which can lead to a range of symptoms, including weight loss, anxiety, fatigue, and hair loss. Ridley said that she has been managing her condition with medication and lifestyle changes, and that she is now feeling much better.
Ridley's diagnosis with Graves' disease is a reminder that autoimmune disorders can affect anyone, regardless of their age or health. It is important to be aware of the symptoms of Graves' disease and to seek medical attention if you think you may have the condition.
