The Queen of Country Pop says she “regularly” experienced “blackouts” following her Lyme disease diagnosis in 2003.

Shania Twain revealed she suffered “blackouts” and “dizzy” spells onstage before learning she had Lyme disease.

“Before I was diagnosed, I was on stage very dizzy,” she said in “Not Just a Girl.” “I was losing my balance, I was afraid I was gonna fall off the stage.” Not only did the chronic illness impact Twain’s ability to perform, but the queen of country pop developed dysphonia, which caused her to temporarily lose her voice.

, “I had to have an operation that was very intense and it’s an open-throat operation, very different from a vocal cord operation. I had to have two of them, so that was really, really, really tough and I survived that — meaning emotionally I survived — and am just ready to keep going.”
