“Cure for MS maybe?????” Christina tweeted back.

Christina first announced that she was diagnosed with MS back in August 2021.

The National MS Society says that multiple sclerosis is an unpredictable disease of the central nervous system that disrupts the flow of information within the brain, and between the brain and body. There’s no known cause for MS, but scientists “believe that a combination of environmental and genetic factors contribute to the risk of developing MS.”

Also during the Q&A, Christina was asked about filming the 2002 movie The Sweetest Thing, which she starred in alongside Selma Blair, who is also battling MS.

“So fun,” Christina responded, before adding, “Sad both of us have Ms”

Shortly after Christina revealed her MS diagnosis, Selma, 49, sent her a message of support.
