On June 22nd, YouTube streamer Valkyrae, real name Rachel Hofstetter, tweeted that she had to “cancel streaming today.” In her original post, she added that she was at the hospital for what was initially thought to be appendicitis, but “might be something else.” Valkyrae then ended the tweet stating that she would “make it up to you guys later!”
I gotta cancel stream today! At the hospital for an appendicitis scare but it might be something else. I’ll make it up to you guys later!

Later that same day, after being hospitalized for six hours and having various tests run for her vague stomach pain, Valkyrae tweeted on her unverified account that she would be “resting today,” but that the hospital wanted her back the following day for more tests.
Valkyrae explained that the stomach pain was caused by ovarian cysts. She described the pain as “sharp” with a “bloated, uncomfortable gut.” Valkyrae also stated that the pain could not be pinpointed to a specific area.
update! was in the hospital for 6 hours; blood drawn, iv, scans, etc. results – for ovarian cysts. Pain is down from a 9/8 sharp pain to a 3/2 bloated/uncomfortable gut. great.. but nerve wracking that the pain couldn’t be pinpointed. They want me back tomorrow.. Resting today❤️
