She explained that she visited multiple hospitals, underwent tests, received injections, and took various meds.

Unfortunately, despite her efforts, the treatments did not provide the desired results.

Concerned about the potential harm caused by excessive antibiotics, she decided to stop taking meds.

She said;

“I did not do lip surgery, I will not do this to myself intentionally. I don’t think there’s any gain in doing lip surgery and I didn’t use pink lip balm. It’s actually an allergic reaction to something I ate which I’m still trying up till now to work on. It actually happened two years ago.
"I’ve gone to like three different hospitals for tests, injections and druggs but it’s not working out. I’ve taken a lot of druugs even the one that almost killed me. I’ve taken lots of injections from three different hospitals, I’ve spent a lot of money. I decided to stop taking drugss so I won’t cause harm to my system because the antibiotics were too much.”

“I found beauty in your voice, because facial beauty is nonsense, the best among beauty is the beauty of the heart and I already see that beauty in you.”

“So sorry I can relate because I am also struggling and fighting poos and hormonal imbalance. Some days I feel so tired like I don't want to continue because I have to hide some days or having to explain what is not to a stranger that feels they can just speak poorly about things they don't know. The stress and seeing little or no results can run someone crazy. Love and light baby girl .. you ain't alone sugar.”

“Maybe come to America & see a doctor here. They will figure out what it is that you are allergic to & provide you with meds & advice. If you can't travel video chat with a doctor out here.”

@vivyenta said:

“Hope you know exactly what you ate so it can give you a guide. I usually have an allergy to nuts especially cashew nut. It feels like a sting on my lips then it swells. The more I itch it increases tho it subsides with time, took me a while to figure it out but I doubt antibiotics is necessary. Try do a research on allergies.”

“I love you! Stay strong. You will get the money for your surgery to reduce your lips. God bless you. God doesn't forget NOBODY!”
