Christina Applegate said that shooting the third season of 'Dead to Me' was the hardest thing she had ever done because she was experiencing symptoms on set before she was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, which she found out she had during shooting.
"I didn't know what was happening to me," Applegate said."I couldn't walk. They had to use a wheelchair to get me to set. I was freaking out, until someone was like 'you need me an MRI.' And then, I found out on a Monday after work that I had MS, a disease that I am going to have for the rest of my life."
