Joe Manganiello reveals his seven-year battle with a mysterious autoimmune disease that he says nearly cost him his life.
Joe Manganiello revela su batalla de 7 años contra una misteriosa enfermedad autoinmune que, según él, casi le cuesta la vida.
“I can’t believe I’m alive,” he tells People, ahead of the release of his new memoir, ‘Bloodlines,’ on October 13.
“No puedo creer que esté vivo”, dice a People, antes del lanzamiento de sus nuevas memorias ‘Bloodlines’, el próximo 13 de octubre.
By Alex Ross.

Joe Manganiello wears his long hair pulled back in a bun, his beard impeccably groomed, and his tan radiant.
Joe Manganiello lleva el pelo largo recogido en un moño, la barba impecablemente arreglada y un bronceado radiante.
He looks healthy because, finally, he is.
Se ve saludable porque, por fin, lo está.
For seven of the last ten years, the actor secretly battled a mysterious autoimmune disease so virulent that it nearly took his life.
Durante siete de los últimos diez años, el actor luchó en secreto contra una misteriosa enfermedad autoinmune tan virulenta que casi le cuesta la vida.
In his new memoir, Bloodlines (out October 13), Manganiello, 49, speaks candidly about his recovery from a battle with the disease that led to the amputation of a vital organ and contributed to the end of his seven-year marriage to actress Sofia Vergara, 54: “I can’t believe I’m alive,” he says.
En sus nuevas memorias, Bloodlines (que se publican el 13 de octubre), Manganiello, de 49 años, habla abiertamente sobre su recuperación de una batalla contra la enfermedad que le provocó la amputación de un órgano vital y contribuyó al fin de su matrimonio de siete años con la actriz Sofía Vergara , de 54 años: «No puedo creer que esté vivo», dice.
“I feel like I’ve been reborn.”
«Siento que he vuelto a nacer».
Manganiello rose to fame in 2010 with True Blood, playing the alluring werewolf Alcide Herveaux, and then as a shirtless heartthrob in Magic Mike (2012).
Manganiello saltó a la fama en 2010 con True Blood interpretando al atractivo hombre lobo Alcide Herveaux, y luego como un galán sin camisa en Magic Mike (2012 ).
In 2015, he married the Modern Family star, Vergara.
En 2015, se casó con la estrella de Modern Family, Vergara.
Everything was going well until Manganiello’s health began to decline shortly after the wedding.
Todo iba bien, hasta que la salud de Manganiello comenzó a deteriorarse poco después de la boda.

Image Press Agency/NurPhoto/Shutterstock Todo comenzó con un dolor abdominal insoportable que le impedía caminar debido a la ulceración de su tracto digestivo, además de fiebre, erupciones con ampollas, dolores de cabeza y fatiga.
It all started with excruciating abdominal pain that left him unable to walk due to an ulcer in his digestive tract, along with fever, blistering rashes, headaches, and fatigue.
Incluso comenzó a sangrar por el recto cuando aún era un recién casado.
He even began bleeding from his rectum while still a newlywed.
«Cada vez me ponía más enfermo», dice.
“I just kept getting sicker and sicker,” he says.
En el transcurso de siete años, Manganiello perdió 27 kilos, se sometió a innumerables colonoscopias y, en una cirugía de emergencia en 2016, le extirparon parte de los intestinos, lo que le impidió ir al baño con normalidad y le obligó a usar una bolsa de ostomía.
Over the course of seven years, Manganiello lost 60 pounds, underwent countless colonoscopies, and, in emergency surgery in 2016, had part of his intestines removed, leaving him unable to have a normal bowel movement and requiring him to wear an ostomy bag.
«Me pasó a mí, y es la verdad, y tengo todas las cicatrices para demostrarlo», dice Manganiello sobre la terrible experiencia, para la cual nunca recibió un diagnóstico definitivo.
“It happened to me, and it’s the truth, and I have all the scars to prove it,” Manganiello says of the ordeal, for which he never received a definitive diagnosis.
«Las enfermedades autoinmunes son un cajón de sastre para cosas que los médicos no entienden.
“Autoimmune diseases are a catch-all for things doctors don’t understand.
Empiezan a someterte a un sinfín de medicamentos».
They start putting you on a whole host of medications.”
A Manganiello le recetaron medicamentos para el dolor neuropático, así como fármacos para tratar la enfermedad de Crohn y la colitis.
Manganiello was prescribed medication for neuropathic pain, as well as drugs to treat Crohn’s disease and colitis.
«Ninguno me hizo efecto», afirma.
“None of them worked,” he says.
Obligado a recurrir a pastillas de hidrocodona, parches de fentanilo y marihuana para aliviar su sufrimiento, Manganiello luchó por mantener sus 13 años de sobriedad, tan difíciles de conseguir.
Forced to turn to hydrocodone pills, fentanyl patches, and marijuana to ease his suffering, Manganiello struggled to maintain his hard-won 13 years of sobriety.
«No sentía que mereciera decir que estaba sobrio», recuerda, «pero tenía que priorizar el dolor y la enfermedad».
“I didn’t feel like I deserved to say I was sober,” he recalls, “but I had to prioritize the pain and the illness.”
Mientras Manganiello iba de hospital en hospital buscando respuestas, su enfermedad afectó su matrimonio, que, según escribe, se había vuelto «completamente vacío de emotividad».
As Manganiello went from hospital to hospital searching for answers, his illness took a toll on his marriage, which, he writes, had become “completely devoid of emotion.”
En el libro, afirma que Vergara se negaba a abrazarlo incluso cuando él se lo suplicaba y que lo ridiculizaba por su chihuahua Bubbles, de 2,2 kg, una cachorrita enferma que Manganiello había adoptado en 2019 cuando contemplaba el suicidio.
In the book, he claims that Vergara refused to hug him even when he begged her to and ridiculed him for his 5-pound chihuahua, Bubbles, a sick puppy Manganiello had adopted in 2019 when he was contemplating suicide.
«Tuve que deshacerme de mi arma porque no dejaba de pensar en ella, y entonces llegó la perra.
“I had to get rid of my gun because I couldn’t stop thinking about it, and then the dog came along.
Pasé de ser el paciente a ser el cuidador», dice.
I went from being the patient to being the caregiver,” he says.
El sueño de la pareja de tener un hijo juntos también se había desvanecido.
The couple’s dream of having a child together had also faded.
Vergara declararía más tarde a un periódico español que su matrimonio “se rompió porque mi marido era más joven; él quería tener hijos y yo no quería ser una madre mayor”.
Vergara would later tell a Spanish newspaper that their marriage “broke down because my husband was younger; he wanted children and I didn’t want to be an older mother.”
Pero Manganiello afirma que abandonó la idea debido a su enfermedad.
But Manganiello claims he abandoned the idea because of his illness.
Tras varios intentos fallidos de fecundación in vitro que los llevaron a considerar la donación de óvulos, dice que no quería morir y dejar a Vergara con un hijo “que no fuera biológicamente suyo”.
After several failed attempts at in-vitro fertilization that led them to consider egg donation, he says he didn’t want to die and leave Vergara with a child “that wasn’t biologically hers.”
Escribir este libro fue su manera de aclarar las cosas: «Se dijeron y se publicaron cosas sobre mí que eran falsas», afirma.
Writing this book was his way of setting the record straight: “Things were said and published about me that were false,” he says.

En un momento dado, su búsqueda desesperada lo llevó a Cuba, donde un curandero le hizo lamer la glándula pituitaria en el cráneo de una cabra.
With his marriage crumbling and his health deteriorating, Manganiello sought answers beyond traditional medicine.
Sin embargo, Manganiello cree que finalmente encontró la sanación gracias a un chamán de Santa Mónica, quien le dijo que el trauma generacional era el culpable.
At one point, his desperate search led him to Cuba, where a healer had him lick the pituitary gland on a goat's skull.
La bisabuela de Manganiello perdió a nueve de sus hijos en el genocidio de Armenia, y su abuela padeció lupus.
However, Manganiello believes he finally found healing from a shaman in Santa Monica, who told him that generational trauma was the culprit.
Él afirma que se liberó del tormento de su familia al enfrentarlo: «Cualquier atadura que me atara al sufrimiento de mis antepasados, se rompió por completo.
Manganiello's great-grandmother lost nine of her children in the Armenian Genocide, and his grandmother suffered from lupus.
No siento ni una pizca de miedo al seguir adelante con mi vida».
He says he freed himself from his family's torment by confronting it: "Any ties that bound me to the suffering of my ancestors were completely severed.
Ahora, el actor, que se sometió a una cirugía de seguimiento para reconectar su tracto digestivo, dice que ya no toma medicamentos y que no presenta síntomas.
I don't feel an ounce of fear moving forward with my life."
«Las enfermedades autoinmunes pueden entrar en remisión», afirma la Dra.
Now, the actor, who underwent follow-up surgery to reconnect his digestive tract, says he is off medication and symptom-free.

"Autoimmune diseases can go into remission," says Dr.
«Desde el punto de vista médico, lo único que sabemos es que está mejor.

Este fue su proceso».

Today, on that path, Manganiello is accompanied by his fiancée, Caitlin O’Connor, 37, whom he met after filing for divorce in 2023.
«Si es lo que me depara el destino», dice Manganiello sobre la posibilidad de ser padre.
“Caitlin came into my life at a time when it was obvious to me that she was the right person for me,” he says.
«Durante siete años pensé que iba a morir la semana siguiente.
Together, the couple is building a future, possibly with children.
El mundo se ha abierto de nuevo ante mí».
“If that’s what fate has in store for me,” Manganiello says about the possibility of becoming a father.
