Dr. Terry, known for his expertise in fixingextreme medical and cosmetic cases, didn’t shy away from giving his take on Brandi’s health issues.

He dismissed the parasite theory and instead pointed to a possible infection or foreign-body reaction.

“Here’s the thing, here’s what Brandi really needs to focus on… and it’s not her fault, it’s her doctor’s fault. Brandi needs a diagnosis,” the acclaimedplastic surgeontold the outlet.

“She has to figure out if there’s a microorganism in there,” he added. “It’s not going to be a parasite, it’s not going to be something she ate, it’s going to be from something that got into her bloodstream.”

Dr. Terry gave warnings about Brandi being a “ticking time bomb,” stressing the urgency of getting a proper diagnosis

Calling her a “ticking time bomb,” he stressed that time is of the utmost essence.

“Every minute that that microorganism is allowed to stay in her skin and do potential damage, she could suffer worse for it,” he said. “It could be more difficult to treat and she could form more scars and more nodules. So Brandi needs a diagnosis. She probably needs a surgical intervention to get a piece of tissue and figure out what’s going on.”
