As per Cleveland Clinic, acute disseminated encephalomyelitis, also known as ADEM is a neurological condition, which is very rare. The condition is usually seen in patients after a viral or bacterial infection.
Per the website, the health issue causes inflammation in the central nervous system.
Coming to the symptoms, the website has mentioned that they usually include a headache, weakness, numbness, and also confusion. While the health condition can happen to any person of any age, it usually affects children more than adults.
Recalling the time when she and Dykstra were about to get married, Jamie-Lynn Sigler mentioned in a podcast called Me Becoming Mom, by PEOPLE, back in 2022 that even she was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis.
Further talking, the actress revealed that it was when Beau was about 2½ years old, that she and Cutter Dykstra were planning to get married. Sigler went on to add that while Dykstra didn't know exactly about her MS diagnosis, he had an idea about the “things that I could and couldn't do."
It was Beau’s condition that helped Jamie-Lynn Sigler to open up about her condition in public.
