Timberlake Announced His Diagnosis in Mid-Summer
His Forget Tomorrow Tour concluded on July 30. A day after, he posted about his Lyme disease situation on social media. Timberlake wrote per People via Instagram, "I've been battling some health issues, and was diagnosed with Lyme disease — which I don't say so you feel bad for me — but to shed some light on what I've been up against behind the scenes. If you've experienced this disease or know someone who has — then you're aware: living with this can be relentlessly debilitating, both mentally and physically."
It sounds like finally finding out what actually ailed him was kind of a relief for the singer, 44. "But, at least I could understand why I would be onstage and in a massive amount of nerve pain or, just feeling crazy fatigue or sickness."
He Explained Why He Went Public With This Information
Timberlake wrote this at the time. "I was reluctant to talk about this because I was always raised to keep something like this to yourself. But I am trying to be more transparent about my struggles so that they aren't misinterpreted. Sharing all of this with the hope that we can all find a way to be more connected. I'd like to do my part to help others experiencing this disease too."
