Bethenny Frankel is lucky to be alive.
This Monday evening, the Real Housewives of New York star took to Twitter to inform fans about her near-fatal crisis.
"I have a rare fish allergy. Sunday, I had soup, itched & was unconscious for 15 mins then to ER & ICU for 2 days w BP of 60/40," Frankel, 48, tweeted.
RHONY fans recall Frankel had a similar — albeit less severe — allergic reaction when she and the ladies ate fish in Colombia on season 10.
"I couldn't talk, see, thought I had a stroke & dying & told if 5 mins later I'd be dead. 911 & EPI saved me. I'll never not carry an #epipen," she continued, voicing how grateful she was to have a second chance at life.
The businesswoman tagged Newton Wellesley Hospital in Massachusetts on her post, writing, "xo."
RadarOnline.com readers know it's been a tough year for Frankel. Just this August, her on-and-off boyfriend, Dennis Shields, died of an accidental drug overdose. And while she's found the strength to move on, her recent health crisis was no joke.
