Although Lucy did not reveal what it is she is suffering from, she took to Instagram to thank doctors and nurses at the hospital.
“You took care of me so graciously”
She said she is suffering from “another virus” that is “going to take some time to go”.
The actress suggested she had been in a bad way when she arrived at the hospital, not able to register the faces of those who treated her.
“Thank you so much to all the nurses and doctors at @cedarssinai for all you are doing for everyone at this moment,” she wrote.
“You took care of me so graciously, and I never got to see one of your faces! I got to go home, but you are still going in every day and putting yourselves in the middle of all the chaos.”
