More on Lewis Capaldi's diagnosis revealAccording to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), TS or simply Tourettes, is a condition of the nervous system that causes people to have tics. Tics sudden, uncontrollable, and repetitive twitching movements or sounds. These are brought on by any number of triggers, with stress and anxiety being the most common.Last year, Capaldi opened up about having Tourettes after fans mistakenly criticized him for using cocaine before his performances. He addressed the allegations while talking to his fans, stating:"Do you think before performing (in front of) 20,000 people, as an anxious person, I'm going to take a big line of cocaine? Never going to happen."Speaking about his triggers, Lewis Capaldi stated:"The worst thing about it is when I’m excited I get it, when I’m stressed I get it, when I’m happy I get it. It happens all the time."In his Instagram live, the Scottish singer explained that he had bad (painful) days, adding that the condition was "quite uncomfortable" but "looked worse than it was." Capaldi explained that he was a hypochondriac and was worried that he was dying or had a "degenerative disease" when the twitches first set in. The singer added that the TS diagnosis came as a relief. Lewis Capaldi's next concert for his UK tour is scheduled for Newcastle on January 21, 2023.
