Miller's spinal surgeon told E!online that the reality star likely has Burkitt lymphoma, a type of Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and that pathology results are still pending. The doctor's rep also said he's unsure if the lymphoma has spread at this point.

The 51-year-old-star was shifted from a prison to a house last month after spending more than eight months in federal prison for concealing bankruptcy assets and not reporting an international monetary transaction. (ANI)
