Shay Gets Emotional As She Opens Up to Michelle Pooch About Her Health Issues

She's trying to stay strong, but Shay is really going through it right now.

It's important to have friends that stick by you through the good and the bad, and for Shay, that person is Michelle Pooch. Shay has been dealing with breakups, makeups and everything in between, but on top of that she is struggling medically. This week on Love & Hip Hop Miami, she opens up about her scary health issues.

Shay has fibroids, which are benign tumors in her uterus, which not only cause her pain, but also cause her to have fainting spells due to loss of blood. In fact, she's losing so much blood during her menstrual cycles that her doctors want to take the fibroids out ASAP. She is terrified, but trying to be strong.

Michelle tells Shay that she isn't alone--She also had fibroids and they burst, forcing her to have emergency surgery. She also tells her that she is going to be by her side through the whole surgery--she doesn't want her friend to feel alone.

It's so good to have a friend who holds you down, even when times are rough. Catch Love & Hip Hop Miami on Mondays at 9/8c.
