Dr. Hooman M. Melamed said at a time that they found it wasn’t a spinal infection but cancer. Melamed is an orthopedic spine surgeon at Cedar Sinai Marina Del Rey Hospital who has been treating the star.

Despite her battle with the disease, Miller has already secured her next career move after her recovery. The star is set to return for season 8 of Dance Moms.

The show was originally canceled by Lifetime following her initial diagnosis.
