Back in January, Selma revealed she is in constant pain as she gave fans an update on her health amid her battles with Multiple Sclerosis and Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome.
Multiple Sclerosis (known as MS) is a condition in which the immune system attacks the body and causes nerve damage to the brain and spinal cord. It is an incurable, lifelong condition.
Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) is the name for a group of rare inherited conditions that affects the body's connective tissue.

Selma said: 'I hurt all the time. I say that for you people that hurt also. Like, I get it. And for all of us just aging, it hurts.
'So, the Ehlers-Danlos will make me really, really, really stiff."
'So, I get some injuries, but this is nothing that's like horrible, scary stuff or anything.
'It's one of those extra things that turns into a chronic thing and you have to watch because people think stretching's so good for you. And I'm technically not allowed to stretch.
'But I am doing well. I'm doing well. Tired. When people say, 'What do you want to do with your life?' It still makes me sad that I just want to sleep.
'There's no complaining. But I don't know if I'll ever have the coordination or balance or stamina that I want to.
'Still lucky. Still grateful. Still okay. But it's still a bummer.'
Giving an update on her MS, she said: 'I'm still in remission. I'm due for another MRI and blood work, but I seem to be doing fine.'
Blair announced that she had officially been diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in an Instagram post that was shared in August of 2018.

The performer also spoke openly about living with MS in her memoir Mean Baby: A Memoir of Growing Up, which was published last May.
In her book, Blair discussed effectively becoming a spokesperson for individuals living with the disease and embracing her new role in life.
She wrote via The Guardian: 'I became a kind of face for the disease, an advocate for something that matters to me. Though it's a role I never thought I would play, it has become who I am.'
'I think it's important to talk about it. When it comes to chronic illnesses, there's a lot of shame in disclosing one's experiences,' she added.
