After some worrying medical problems, Matthew "Mizkif" Rinaudo excitedly took to Twitter to announce to fans that he has been given the all clear from doctors and his heart is "100% normal again."
As one of Twitch's most popular, 27-year-old Mizkif has built a dedicated and supportive community around him. With 1.8 million followers on the Amazon-owned platform, Mizkif regularly hosts streams alongside some of the world's most famous names in the streaming community. He has also enjoyed a great deal of success with his esports and entertainment organisation One True King (OTK), which he launched with fellow streamer Zack "Asmongold".
On numerous occasions, Mizkif has made sure to show his gratitude to his fans, who have constantly been there to support him through his highs and lows, though there have been the odd few bad apples. However, one thing that fans have always praised Mizkif for his openness about a troubling heart condition, which has sometimes left him unable to stream.
What Heart Condition Was Mizkif Suffering From?
Mizkif may have become one of the biggest names on the platform, but it hasn't been without its struggles. Back in June 2019, the streamer uploaded a YouTube video in which he discussed how suffered from the heart condition myocarditis.
For those unfamiliar with the condition, according to the Mayo Clinic, myocarditis "is an inflammation of the heart muscle. The inflammation can reduce the heart's ability to pump and cause rapid or irregular heart rhythms." Some of the apparent symptoms of myocarditis can include "chest pain, fatigue, shortness of breath, and rapid or irregular heartbeats."
In previous times, Mizkif has been very open about his condition with fans and how sometimes the symptoms have been so bad that it has been tough for him to stream. For example, on January 22, 2022, Mizkif tweeted: "No stream, my heart's doing some weird palpitations from drinking last night and I just need to sleep/take ibuprofen. Don't freak out about this it happens all the time. I just need a day to chill."
Mizkif Announces He's Been Given The All Clear From Doctors
On March 3, Mizkif clearly couldn't contain his excitement as he took to Twitter to give fans a wonderful update on his health. In the tweet, Mizkif claimed: "I just went to the doctor and got an ultrasound and my heart is one hundred percent normal again!" The news was met with an outpouring of love and support from fans who shared in the celebrations.
Mizkif's dedicated fans have sent their love and support for the streamer on numerous occasions. For example, his fanbase were fully behind him after his new car was wrecked after only a few days into the new year.
Mizkif didn't give any further details as to what the doctors said or what this could mean for the future, but fans were just relieved to hear that he'd been given the all clear.
