Scarface, now on dialysis, shares details on his near-death experience with COVID-19.
The rapper revealed his diagnosis with coronavirus at the end of March 2020. Now, Scarface opens up about currently being on dialysis after kidney failure following his battle with COVID-19. As he shared his positive coronavirus test, Scarface shared on a digital chat with Willie D which was in-turn uploaded to YouTube.
Billboard reports Scarface describing his entire lifestyle being changed after dealing with coronavirus. Although he did not have kidney issues prior to COVID-19, Scarface must now go through dialysis treatment multiple times a week.
“I gotta change my entire diet, I gotta do dialysis four days a week, three hours a day. That’s taking all my blood out, cleaning it and putting it back in my body,” says Scarface.
He continues to describe a painful, uncomfortable fight against the coronavirus.
“I couldn’t keep food down, I couldn’t get comfortable, I couldn’t sleep, I couldn’t stay woke, I could not breathe. It was the worst time of my life.” He also lost “probably 30 pounds.”
The Geto Boyz rapper recently made moves to get involved politically. Scarface announced a run for Houston’s city council back in June 2019.
