What Illness Does August Have? Is August Alsina Disabled?

August Alsina told fans back in 2015 that he suffers with genetic liver disease.

“I have a liver disease where my autoimmune system is fighting against itself. Reality is I’m sick all the time. I’d really like to talk about it and I’m not looking for anybody’s sympathy,” he had said

In 2014, the Testimony artist collapsed on a New York City stage after a nasty spill during his show.

The rapper revealed his condition further by statimg that it is an autoimmune disease, which apparently runs in his family.

In the video which is now unavailable on his Instagram account, the rapper explained: “After sitting down and talking with my father’s mother and sister… they explained to me that sickness & illness runs in my family. My father & grandfather both died of severe illness.”

Genetic liver conditions include haemochromatosis, alpha-1 antitrypsin (AAT) deficiency and Wilson disease.

They occur as a result of too much iron, a lack of the AAT protein, or a build-up of copper, respectively, in the body.
