After she announced that she will be flying to Singapore for medical treatment, Kris Aquino now has an update regarding her health.

Over the weekend, Kris revealed that she will go to Singapore because the medical tests she previously took in the Philippines require a “more comprehensive” set of tests, which are unfortunately not available in her motherland.

In a statement by lawyer Sigfrid Fortun that was posted by Kris on Saturday, the “Queen of All Media” is currently taking maintenance medicine for her hypertension, severe allergies, and migraine.

This, after she opened up to the public that she lost weight  due to “financial abuse” and the ‘betrayal’ she had experienced from someone  she “had complete trust and faith in.” This unnamed individual, according to Kris, has obtained ‘millions’ from running her production company, Kris Aquino Cojuangco Productions (KCAP), and negotiating her endorsements.

So what is Kris’s condition now? The actress, on her Instagram post today, October 2, assured everyone, especially her fans, that all tests for any tumor markers resulted ‘negative.’

However, Kris said she still needs to consult a specialist for her hypertension, severe allergies, and migraine as these ailments are needed to be immediately addressed “for me to have the best chance to regain my health.”

The actress also shared that she and her youngest son, Bimb were reading her medical tests which dated back September 2015, but they found out that some of the tests she went through just last week in the Philippines “had results no longer as good as those from San Francisco in March 2018.”

She added that they are also google-ing several medical terms so her son will understand what is going to be in the store for them.

“My 11 year old needed the assurance that his mama would fight bravely because my tests start tomorrow,” Kris wrote.

In her post, Kris also said that what she has been going through now has reminded her of her mother, former President Corazon “Cory” Aquino, who suffered from cancer.

“The words our Mom said near the end of her life are vividly recalled in my mind ‘I fought for my life because I knew you weren’t ready,'” Kris shared.

“Our mother braved the surgeries, treatments, and extreme physical pain of terminal cancer because she loved us so much that she wanted to give us what our dad’s assassination stole from us- enough time to prepare and accept God’s will,” she added.

Kris did not ask the public to pray for her good health because she “now completely surrender to God’s merciful care.” Instead, she asked everyone to pray for her two sons, Josh and Bimb.

“Kahit sinong magulang maiintindihan po ako, gagawin natin ang lahat wag lang masaktan, ma-agrabyado, o mahirapan ang mga pinakamamahal nating mga anak. Isasakripisyo natin ang lahat masiguradong okay sila (Any parent will understand me, we will do everything so that our beloved children will not be hurt, taken advantage, or suffer. We will sacrifice everything to make sure that they are okay),” she said.

Apart from Kris’s fans who wish her well, Megastar Sharon Cuneta sent her prayers and support to her friend.

“I KNOW THAT OUR ALMIGHTY FATHER STILL HAS BIG PLANS FOR KRIS TO DO HIS GOOD WORK AND SHE HAS TWO SONS SHE LIVES FOR. FOR THEM AND FOR US, SHE SIMPLY CANNOT BE SICK,” Sharon wrote.
