Filipino gymnast Levi Jung-Ruivivar went into anaphylactic shock Monday and went to the emergency room at the Olympic Village in a scary moment at the 2024 Paris games.
After returning to her room and calling her parents, she made her way to the medical center inside the Olympic Village in Paris, but on the way, her symptoms worsened, and she had to use her EpiPen. “My muscles are fatigued and it definitely took a toll on my body, but I am doing everything I can to recovery and perform at my best possible level,” she wrote on Instagram.
“ does suck,” Ruivivar told GymCastic. “Leading up, the preparation was going really well and I was feeling good. My body will just continue to recover, but it took a lot out of my system.
