Overview
- The 64-year-old broadcaster described a rapid-onset rheumatoid arthritis episode that left her hands swollen and movement so painful she cried on the floor.
- She told ITV's This Morning that December blood tests showed a raised CRP of nine linked to a rotator cuff injury before the flare.
- Vorderman credited NHS care and said she is now on biologic medication and has been off steroids for months after earlier trials and short-term steroid use.
- She has repeatedly said the symptoms began days after having “some jabs,” presenting the timing as her account rather than a medically established cause.
- Following last year's burnout and exit from her LBC Sunday show, she says she has cut back work, regained energy, and returned to public appearances including hosting the Pride of Britain Awards.
