"The typhoon made my rheumatoid arthritis HURT so much (it’s hard to explain the other autoimmune diseases I have as a well as the 2 recently diagnosed diseases because of my multiple autoimmune diseases)," she wrote.

Her 9 primary autoimmune diseases are Autoimmune Thyroiditis, Chronic Spontaneous Urticaria, EGPA, Systemic Sclerosis/ Scleroderma, Lupus, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Fibromyalgia, Polymyositis, and Mixed Connective Tissue disease.

“The 10th is a result of the 9, and I have an 11th disease that came about because of my lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, sjogren's and a few of my other autoimmune diseases,” Aquino revealed.

Her youngest son Bimby, who just turned 18, will take over her Instagram account.

“Bimb will soon take over my IG (with me checking before he posts)… get to know us because we are very different people now,” she said. 

Aquino is currently living in a private beach owned by an anonymous friend.

"Too bad I am now wheelchair bound... I still need to learn how to walk again," Aquino added.
