*Wendy Williams is due back on her talk show today (March 19) following a three-week medical leave, but not before an appearance on “Good Morning America” for her first interview since the mini-hiatus.

In an interview with GMA’s Amy Robach, the 53-year-old says she wasn’t managing her Graves’ disease, an autoimmune disorder, explaining that the condition is what led to her fainting on live TV last October.

“I had missed three doctors’ appointments with my endocrinologist,” she admitted in a clip posted by the Daily Mail. “He’s the one who handles the thyroid and the Graves.”

“Your health was at the bottom of the list?” Robach suggested.

“Yes,” Williams replied. “I’m functioning OK, I’m feeling a little weird but I’ll get through it. And I went in February and that’s where I found, whoa, your levels are way off.”

As a result, her doctor told her that she needed to take time off to recover.

“I cried. And then I laughed,” Williams said, revealing that she told her doctor, “Are you out of your mind? It’s sweeps.”

He replied, “Do you want to be swept?”
