Jenna Jameson uses walker amid mystery illness that left her unable to stand

Jenna Jameson is on the road to recovery.

The former adult film actress, 47, revealed Monday that she is now using a walker as she battles a mystery illness that left her unable to stand on her own.

“Getting Stronger!” Jameson captioned a photo on her Instagram Story of herself smiling while gripping onto her walker.

The mom of three — who shares twin sons Journey and Jesse, 12, with ex Tito Ortiz and daughter Batel, 4, with boyfriend Lior Bitton — shared last week that she was bedridden due to her debilitating sickness.

So far, doctors have been unable to determine the reason for Jameson’s condition through testing.

“I am still sick, as you can see. I am in bed, but I am at home which is really nice. I’ve been getting a lot of sleep. We don’t know what exactly is going on. I still am unable to stand, but I am feeling better and things are going a lot better so thank you for your support,” she said in an Instagram video. 

Jameson spent an entire month in a hospital in Hawaii — where she resides with her family — as a medical team tried diagnosing her. In early January, the star’s businessman partner, Bitton, 48, explained how she suddenly became weak.

“Her muscles in her legs were very weak. So she wasn’t able to walk to the bathroom. She was falling on the way back or to the bathroom, I would have to pick her up and carry her to bed,” he said at the time via social media. “And then within two days it go really not so good, her legs started to not hold her, she wasn’t able to walk.”

Doctors once believed Jameson’s symptoms stemmed from a rare neurological disorder called Guillain-Barré Syndrome but have since ruled it out as the cause.

Jameson, who has shared frequent updates about her health battle on Instagram, revealed on Feb. 22 that she was discharged from the hospital with more knowledge about the root of her struggles.

“I still have more testing to do but it seems there’s something off with my femoral nerve,” she said on her Story. “And it’s affecting my strength in my legs.”
