"I was isolated and on meds for 6 - 8months" says Lexi Van

When talking about the serious issues that plague society, saying that "it can happen to anyone" is not a scare tactic, it is a fact. And Lexi Van sharing her past struggles with TB is proof of this. 

Seeing as today is #WorldTBDay, the former Big Brother Mzansi housemate took to Twitter to share the fact that she was diagnosed with TB during her first year in college and that she has to go through a lot just to beat the disease. 

She also urged her followers to go and get tested if they are displaying any symptoms.

She topped off her PSA with this little pun. 

So guys and dolls, please do keep yourselves healthy. Testing is free and TB is curable
