Brandi Glanville, a former cast member of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, is opening up about the intense health struggles she's facing. The 53-year-old alum shared a glimpse into her daily routine, which includes preparing and administering her own IV treatments at home.

On Sunday, Glanville posted an Instagram Reel that showed her setting up her IV equipment, which includes medication such as imipenem, administered through a pump. "I know I'm so skinny right now," she stated, acknowledging her noticeable weight loss. "I can't eat because the things I do. decreases my food . I feel like death. I look like death."

Glanville explained that she has learned to manage some of her IV treatments herself, while a nurse visits her home for several hours each day. One of her treatments involves an IV drip that runs throughout the night, administered by a pump. "I just finished this IV," she said in the video. "It's imipenem. It's on a pump." She revealed that she has to set up and administer the IV before the nurse arrives to attend to her other medical needs.

Glanville's daily routine appears to be exhaustive, with her spending around 18 hours per day receiving treatment intravenously. "It's a lot of setup," she admitted. The treatments themselves are grueling, causing exhaustion and affecting her appetite. In her caption, Glanville wrote that this is just "one minute" of a larger story, hinting at the complexity of her health battle. "This is only one minute of a much bigger story. #brandisstory Part 1? "

In a candid moment, Glanville spoke about the days she spent away from public view, enduring the treatments without sharing them with others. "The treatments. The IVs. The exhaustion. The days nobody saw," she wrote, revealing the emotional toll of her condition.
