Eamonn Holmes shares health update as he admits he's 'desperate for results'
Eamonn Holmes said he is "desperate for results" despite his "slow progress" after recovering from a serious fall.
The 63-year-old TV presenter was previously pictured using physio apparatus to help strengthen his upper body after months of battling with chronic pain.
The former This Morning presenter has struggled with severe back pain in recent years and underwent surgery at the end of September 2022.
But during his recovery he suffered a set back when he fell down a spiral staircase and required further surgery after injuring his shoulder.
Eamonn, who is married to Loose Women star Ruth Langsford, said on Instagram today: "Hard to explain what this apparatus does … but it's all about reawakening my Neuropathic connections.
