90 Day Fiance: Before the 90 Days star Jasmine Pineda just opened up about a medical condition that’s been affecting her since childhood.

People noticed that Jasmine had something strapped to her chest in one of her videos and they questioned her about it.

The reality TV personality then opened up about the device and explained that it’s used to “monitor and catch arrhythmia,” following her diagnosis with a heart condition years ago.

Jasmine has been opening up a lot with her social media followers over the past few months and it seems people’s perceptions of her are starting to change. Initially, she got a lot of backlash from viewers for her explosive behavior and her jealous fits of rage throughout her relationship with Gino Palazzolo.

However, the tides began to change for Jasmine after Gino violated her privacy by sending her topless photos to his ex. Since then it seems people have warmed up to the Panamanian native and she now has some fans on her side.

She has also opened up quite a bit about her life before her stint on the show and most recently she dished about an ongoing health condition.
