Halsey | “I’m lucky to be alive”: the American singer talks about her serious health problems

American singer Halsey said she is “lucky to be alive” after dealing with serious health problems.

Although this 29-year-old – who was nominated for the award Grammy on two occasions – did not identify the conditions he suffers from, he hinted in an Instagram post that he was diagnosed lupus and leukemia.

In a series of photos and videos, Halsey says she feels “like an old woman.”

“Summarizing, I’m lucky to be alive“he wrote in the text of the post.

Halsey shared the health update while announcing the release of her fifth studio album and its lead single, The End.

“Now, every two years, the doctor says I’m sick,” she sings on the album.

The singer and songwriter, whose real name is Ashley Nicolette Frangipane, is known for her song Closer with The Chainsmokers and their debut album, Badlandswhich went platinum in the United States.

“I told myself I was going to give myself two more years to be sick,” she says in the video posted on Instagram.

“When I’m 30, I’ll be reborn and I won’t get sick. I’ll look super sexy and have a lot of energy and I will be able to rebuild my 20s at 30“he adds.

This is not the first time Halsey has spoken out about her poor health. “I’ve been sick most of my adult life,” she said two years ago.

At that time she revealed that her health had worsened during her pregnancy with her son, Ender, the previous year.

In the past you received treatment for conditions such as endometriosishe Ehlers-Danlos syndromehe Sjogren’s syndrome and the mast cell activation syndrome.

Halsey now hinted that she was also receiving treatment for lupus and leukemia by raving about the Lupus Research Alliance and the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society in her latest post.

One of the videos shared by Halsey shows her receiving treatment in a hospital and, in her new song, she sings about the “poison” in his blood and about the start of treatment.

There are several types of leukemia, which is a type of cancer that affects white blood cells.

It is not known what causes leukemia, but it can make patients more susceptible to infections and feel exhausted, according to the British Health Service (NHS).

It is usually treated with chemotherapy.

The other condition he hinted at, lupus, is complicated and poorly understood, according to the NHS, which says it affects many different parts of the body and can be life-threatening.

The American singer Selena Gomez also spoke some time ago about her diagnosis of lupus for which, according to her, she needed a kidney transplant in 2017.

There are some types of lupus that only affect the skin, but the term is generally used to describe a more severe form of the condition: systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).

This affects many parts of the body such as the skin, joints and internal organs.

Many may have the disease for a long time without knowing it before suffering a sudden attack.

Symptoms include extreme tiredness, rashes (especially on the face, wrists, and hands), and joint pain and swelling.

Even mild cases can be worrying and have a major impact on quality of life.

However, the symptoms may be similar to more common conditions, so it is often it is difficult to diagnose.

After sharing her story online on Tuesday, fans showed their support for Halsey.

Her post received more than one and a half million likes and attracted thousands of comments.
