Miranda Hart reveals her phone “stopped ringing” after her Lyme disease diagnosis forced her to give up work.

The comedian spoke of her health struggles on Radio 4's Young Again with Kirsty Young on Tuesday (22 October), explainng how “the hardest thing” was not being able to work.

“The phone completely stopped ringing and no one texted me, nothing, absolutely nothing. Just a few very kindly people who'd occasionally touch in and go, ‘Just come back when you're ready’.”
