Sheren Tang Denies Suffering From Lymphatic Disease
Sheren Tang‘s (鄧萃雯) health condition is once again under the spotlight after tabloid magazines claimed that she may be suffering from lymphatic problems.
When Sheren opened up about her battle with depression and anxiety, she had hoped to use herself as an example to raise awareness about mental illness. However, the media has since portrayed her as someone who has succumbed to the stresses of a film set, and has even described her as frail and fragile. Last year, tabloids falsified reports claiming that Sheren was dealing with a possible tumor in her neck after she was spotted with a swollen spot the size of an egg. She was able to intercept these stories before they were published, and later made a statement on Weibo denying the tumor and expressed her frustrations over these made-up gossips.
Unfortunately, the media paid no heed to her anger and ran stories about her health condition again this month. Citing a personal photo she posted from a recent trip to Malaysia, the magazines pointed to a small darkened line on the left side of her neck and suggested that it is a scar leftover from recent surgery. Since the scar is located close to her alleged neck tumor from last year, the reports claim that Sheren’s lymphatic condition has returned after a stressful time filming in China, and that the actress had finally chosen to operate.
Sheren once again spoke out against these rumors on her Weibo on April 4, pleading with the media to stop spreading these damaging lies. “I have never had the lymph problems that the magazines wrote about, so I also did not have the surgery. I ask the media to put themselves into my shoes, and to stop fabricating my illness in order to sell copies. Artistes are also humans…your stories will affect my image and add to my pressure. I only hope that every single person who works hard and lives mindfully will receive the respect they deserve.”

hi there
1. me like shereen’s attitude.
2. ability to stand on her own.
3. her performance is just superb.
Love you sheren <3
surgery or not, she looks really good here, and looks a bit mixed as well.
Respect Sheren! Support Sheren!
If she is sick, she will declare her illness to the public. So stop the rumour!! Why don’t the reporters be the scriptwriter since they are so creative?
Is it so hard to respect a human being and her privacy?
TOTALLY with you.
Whether ANY person per se; Sheren or not .. star, etc is ill or not, that’s really their own very private business.
Media should back off, rather than always trying to score a headliner sensational sccopy.
Bad enough IF any person is really sick. They would already have enough to cope with.
Why is it that media must always add on to anyone’s misery by poking further?
Whether she had surgery or not to alleviate a medical condition, what is the big deal to the press as long as she is in good health? If she had plastic surgery to radically change her looks is one thing but having surgery to rid a tumor or other malady should not be shameful but rather uplifting and encouraging news to others. The media must be delirious and hallucinatory which will require a lobotomy to fix their condition which will be newsworthy!
lawyer up and sue.
To me, the Media is grasping at straws here…I believe Sheren when she says she never had a tumor and didn’t have surgery because so far, she has not shared that experience with others. In recent years, Sheren has actually been quite open in sharing her bouts with depression and anxiety, as well as the other problems she’s experienced in her life and career — she’s been sharing alot of these things as part of her testimony at Church and at various evangelistic events…if she truly had an illness and had gone through surgery because of it, I’m pretty sure she would have shared it by now during one of her speaking engagements.
The media need to leave Sheren alone!
Wow……….that’s good for her………….
Hehehehe
