Brandi Glanville is giving followers a closer look at the intensive treatment routine she says has become part of her everyday life amid ongoing health struggles.
In an Instagram video posted Sunday, September 6, the 53-year-old reality TV personality addressed her noticeable weight loss while preparing her daily IV infusions at home.
“I know I’m so skinny right now,” Glanville told viewers, explaining that her current treatments have affected her ability to eat. She added that she has been feeling extremely unwell and exhausted.
Glanville then showed part of the process behind her IV regimen, explaining that she administers Imipenem through a pump after learning how to handle the treatments with help from a nurse.
According to Glanville, a nurse currently visits for several hours in the evenings to assist with another IV treatment, while she handles additional infusions herself before and overnight.
She said the full routine can amount to approximately 18 hours of IV treatment per day.
In the caption accompanying the video, Glanville said she was sharing a side of her health journey that followers had largely not seen.
“For the first time, I’m showing you what my life has really looked like behind closed doors,” she wrote, referring to the treatments, IVs and exhaustion she has experienced.
Glanville also made clear that the brief video represented only a small part of what she has been dealing with, adding that there are still aspects of her health situation she is not ready to discuss publicly.
The update comes after Glanville previously revealed that doctors had identified a benign tumor in one of her facial lymph nodes. She said earlier this year that the non-cancerous growth could potentially be connected to fluid moving around her face.
Glanville has publicly discussed ongoing facial health problems in recent years and has said she has spent a significant amount on treatments while trying to find answers.
In November 2025, she described her recovery as a slow process and said moving into a new home helped her focus on creating a calmer environment and returning to a more normal routine.
Now, Glanville says she is beginning to reveal more about what her daily medical routine has actually involved — while emphasizing that the story behind her health struggles is much larger than what she has shared so far.
