Carmen Barbieri warned today, Monday, in her period very morning (City Magazine, at 10) that tomorrow he will be absent for health reasons. Faithful to her style of expressing what happens to her on TV, the presenter explained that she will have to take the day off because she has to re-enter an operating room and confesses to being terrified. Furthermore, he recounted what his son Fede Bal told him in this situation.
In dialogue with her speakers Estefi Berardi and Pampito Perello Aciar, the actress, presenter and director said: “I won’t come tomorrow because I’m studying”. And, in total sincerity, she added: “I have shit…!”.
Then he explained that he was very afraid of having to go back to the operating room – in recent times, as you will remember, Carmen has had several serious health problems – but that the attending physician gives him reassurance.
“At the hands of Federico’s doctor (Bal, his son), I do an endoscopy and a colonoscopy. And this is done in the operating room. After, you have to recover. That’s why I’m not going to work tomorrow”, Carmen explained,
“The last time I did it I was 24 – said the rider who is 67 today -. Sometimes you have to do it… You need to do it more often, but I’m a little scared”.
Subsequently, Carmen clarified that what scares her is the fact that they put her under anesthesia. “The anesthesia is mild,” she said, “that’s so it doesn’t bother or hurt.”
Also, Barbieri commented what was the reaction of his son Federico Bal when he heard his fears for the studies to be done tomorrow. “Fede told me: ‘Don’t make a scandal like that, I always do'”.
It should be remembered that in March 2020 Fede Bal was diagnosed with colon cancer which, fortunately, he managed to overcome through chemotherapy and radiotherapy treatments. But of course you should continue to have follow-up colonoscopies.
Carmen’s health: she’s been through it all, but she’s moved on
In recent times, Carmen Barbieri has had numerous health problems. However, living up to her nickname, “The Lioness,” she never gave up and managed to get around them all.
Last December, Barbieri had to be rushed to hospital when she fell in the street while walking her dog and, as a result of the fall, her shoulder was pulled out of place. In the clinic, to fix her shoulder, they had to take her to the operating room and apply general anesthesia.
In January 2021 Carmen Barbieri had contracted Covid and had to remain hospitalized for 40 days, 20 of which in a pharmacological coma. Shortly after being discharged, she had to be hospitalized due to an infection.
Carmen came forward and as soon as she was discharged she joined MasterChef (Telefe), the cycle with which she had signed a contract, but was unable to leave at the time of the premiere because she was ill with Covid. In that situation, Fede Bal took the place of her mother until she was unable to participate in the gastronomic competition.
“I was close to death for real -Carmen then said-. I thought it was serious, but the doctor told me, ‘You were in critical condition, which is more than serious. But you are a lioness the way you fought.’”
The lioness contracted the coronavirus again in January 2022. “I nearly died when I saw the positive,” he lamented at the time. I had a seizure, because it scares me. I was on the verge of death, so bad….”
Subsequently, he clarified that thanks to the three doses of the vaccine that had been administered, the symptoms were milder. “This time it hit me like the flu,” said Carmen, “my head hurts, my throat hurts, I have a fever of 37.5, my whole body hurts, a little cough, I’m weak, dizzy and sweating a lot, like a strong flu.” .
