Arroyo did not give any more details.

On Thursday, September 6, Arroyo tweeted: "I just came from my thrice weekly therapy at Veterans. This week I also saw two alternative medicine practitioners as part of my search for a second opinion while initiating my communication with an opinion with a neurovervical spine purist who does repeat surgery daily, as recommended by Dr. Anastacio. "
Arroyo has been in and out of the hospital since she was first operated to address a pinched nerve last year.
A recent medical finding by attending physician Roberto Anastacio indicated that Arroyo risks sudden death for the complications from the dislodging of the titanium implanted during her cervical spine surgery at St. Luke's Medical Center.
