Ex-adult star Jenna Jameson still unable to walk after being hospitalised
Former porn star Jenna Jameson has returned home after being hospitalised with a mysterious condition but she is still unable to walk.
The 47-year-old shared a health update with her Instagram followers after being discharged from the hospital but said doctors are continuing with tests to investigate the cause of her condition.
She said: "Hey guys, I wanted to pop on and let you know what was going on.
"I am just resting obviously I still have more testing to do. But it seems there's something off with my femoral nerve and it's affecting my strength and my legs.
"So I am still in a wheelchair, unfortunately. But yeah, I hope to be out of the wheelchair soon and walking. So stay elope."
Her partner Lior Bitton revealed the former star’s condition through an Instagram video back in January.
Bitton, who shares four-year-old daughter Batel Lu with Jameson, spoke of how she had been throwing up for two weeks before going to the hospital when she was unable to carry herself.
But in her latest update, Jameson shared footage of her left leg but despite the fact she can move it, she lacks the strength to be able to walk.
She added: "So you can see I still have movement in my leg, but my quads strength is really, really, really weak.

"And as you can see, I have some atrophy happening. My legs are incredibly skinny. But don't get too alarmed because my legs have always been Ultra skinny.
"So, you know, don't judge me. We will be back to the best soon. I hope so."
Doctors initially thought the star had Guillain-Barré syndrome, which according to the NHS is a very rare and serious condition that sees the immune system damaging the nervous system.
The syndrome mainly affects the feet, hands and limbs, causing problems such as numbness, weakness and pain.

However, the condition can be treated and most people will eventually make a full recovery, although it can occasionally be life-threatening and some people are left with long-term problems.
But after five rounds of immunoglobulin therapy (IVIg) – the typical treatment for the disorder – and additional tests, doctors have disproved their original theory and are pondering over what the condition could be.
For now, Jenna and her partner have thanked her followers for their continued thoughts and prayers.
