Presenter has treatment to fight bug he got in Peru
Thursday, 26 March 2009
Ben Fogle is having chemotherapy because his flesh-eating disease has come back.
The presenter, 35, got leishmaniasis after he was bitten by a sandfly in Peru last summer.
'I am facing six weeks of chemotherapy and going to hospital for several hours a day to be put on drips to treat this condition,' he tells The Sun.
'I am really frustrated as I am normally so active.'
Ben trekked 500 miles to the South Pole with Olympic rower James Cracknell in December.
