On Saturday morning, the singer published a statement on Instagram. It turns out that despite his young age (19), he struggles with serious health problems.
The situation is serious because the artist was hospitalized and had to temporarily suspend her professional career.
I didn’t think that such a situation would arise… I wanted to leave it to myself and not comment on my health, but the situation I found myself in due to excessive effort forces me to do so, perhaps it is supposed to be some kind of testimony/warning. ..
– she started the post on Instagram.
It turns out that Roksana felt worse after one of the performances.
I found out a few months ago that I have stage 1 diabetes and honestly? I downplayed this issue, I didn’t want to stop what I was doing, over time the situation worsened, I started having dramatic sugar spikes, which made my well-being worse, until yesterday, after the mini concert, I fainted and ended up in the hospital…
– confessed the singer.

I believe that nothing happens without a reason, but now I need rest, so I disappear for a while, only carrying out activities that will not burden me physically

What is type 1 diabetes?
Type 1 diabetes is a chronic autoimmune disease in which the immune system destroys the beta cells of the pancreas responsible for the production of insulin – a hormone necessary to regulate blood glucose levels.
As a result, the body stops producing insulin or produces insufficient amounts of it. Glucose, instead of reaching the cells, accumulates in the blood, leading to hyperglycemia.
Although the exact cause is not fully understood, it is known that a combination of genetic and environmental factors are responsible for the development of type 1 diabetes.
Symptoms of type 1 diabetes to:
- excessive thirst,
- frequent urination,
- sudden and unintentional weight loss,
- fatigue and weakness,
- vision problems (blurred image),
- recurrent infections, e.g. of the skin or urinary tract.
The basis of treatment for type 1 diabetes is the administration of insulinbecause the patient’s body does not produce it on its own. The hormone is delivered by injection or via an insulin pump. Regular monitoring of blood sugar levels, a healthy diet and regular physical activity are also important.
