Jenelle Evans, who starred on MTV's Teen Mom 2, has revealed to her TikTok followers that she will be undergoing tests for ALS. Viewers were first introduced to then 17-year-old Jenelle in 2010; Jenelle's 16 & Pregnant episode followed the North Carolinian as she gave birth to Jace Evans, now 12, before signing over parental rights to her mother Barbara.

On December 6, Jenelle told her TikTok followers that she had a cyst on her spinal cord that was growing, with doctors saying that there was nothing they could do until she reportedly became paralyzed. A few weeks later, Jenelle revealed that she was diagnosed with tumors in her spine and neck, tagging the conditions Syringomyelia and Hemangioma.
