Celebrated Kenyan music video Director Mushking, husband to rapper Xtatic is suffering from a rare nerve disorder only identified as Miller Fisher Syndrome, which is a rare variant of Guillain-Barré Syndrome.

The news of Mushking’s illness was shared on social media by the wife Xtatic who revealed that her hubby woke up with a blurry vision and difficulty in breathing leading to his admission.

She mentioned that "Guillain-Barré Syndrome is an auto immune reaction where the body's immune system produces antibodies to destroy infectious agent's but the antibodies produced also cross react with normal cell structures and attack them as well, demyelinating the nerves".

Update on Mushking's health

Hey good people,

Thank you for all the DMs and well wishes for King. 

Some of you have obviously been asking what MFS or Miller Fisher Syndrome is. First of all, for those who don't know, King has been in hospital for the past week. It all started by him waking up and having blurry vision and noticed loss of balance as well, which progressed to difficulty in breathing, slurry speech, and a bit of feeling like his face was numb. He was seen by a couple of specialists. A lot of tests were run. And in the end, a team of neurologists diagnosed him with Miller Fisher Syndrome, which is a rare variant of Guillain-Barré Syndrome, which is an auto immune reaction where the body's immune system produces antibodies to destroy infectious agent's but the antibodies produced also cross react with normal cell structures and attack them as well, demylinating the nerves" reads apart of Xtatic's post.

She added that currently Mush is still in hospital being monitored because of the difficulties in breathing he has developed.

"So currently, he is still in hospital, closely being monitored, especially because of the difficulty in breathing at times. And for those texting and calling, he can't read the texts because he still can't see. But can hear. And also he can't move without assistance. And he is in HDU and they've not allowed any phone, hence can't pick any calls as of the moment. And probably won't be available for some time. Thank you for your well wishes. Have a great week ahead” reads an update from Xtatic.
