The Real Housewives of Atlanta Star is home and recovering after she was admitted to the hospital last week. NeNe checked herself in after feeling a "little short of breath," she writes on her website.

After undergoing tests, doctors diagnosed her with blood clots in her lung. "I'm told this happened to me because of the constant traveling around the country that I do for my job," she says, refuting reports that claimed she had a heart attack.

Thankfully, doctors discovered the health issue in time and NeNe says she is "fortunate to have had a wonderful experience with the doctors and nurses who took care of me. I'm blessed to be home with my wonderful Husband and family!"

Send your well wishes to NeNe for a speedy recovery in the comments.
