Jessie J was hospitalized for six weeks due to pain after breast cancer surgery

(Web Desk) – Jessie J says she’s “feeling a lot stronger” despite the pain she still feels in her chest after she was hospitalized for complications six weeks after breast cancer surgery.

The “Price Tag” singer, 37, is recuperating at home after being hospitalized following breast cancer surgery for what was originally suspected to be a blood clot in her lungs.

“6 weeks post surgery and I was back in the same ward I was after my surgery. Not expected or planned. I had and still have symptoms that pointed towards a blood clot on the lung. IT IS NOT A BLOOD CLOT THANK GOD,” she’d shared to her Instagram stories, per Billboard.

“They ran a lot of tests which ended up showing I have an infection (still trying to figure out what) and a little fluid in my lungs,” her update continued. “Finding it hard to breathe in, but I discharged myself last night (I hate being in hospital) and will continue the investigation as an outpatient.”

Jessie (real name: Jessica Cornish) gave an update — albeit a cheeky one — sharing, “I finally got a diagnosis of what’s been going on. Lots of people have been asking. Apparently it’s called… Dramatic? I think that’s the spelling,” she shared on her Instagram stories Aug 4.

On a more serious note, the “Bang Bang” singer shared, “My symptoms are the same and no idea what’s wrong yet, but my sarcasm and sense of humor are holding on.”

“I’ve just been trying to rest, but I thought it would be important to [share an update],” she said in a video, filmed in her bed at home. “I think people think that I’m, like, hanging on by a thread, which in some moments has felt that way — like two or three days ago when I woke up, and I couldn’t breathe. I still have pain in my chest when I breathe, but it’s not as bad.”

“I had breast cancer and I had surgery,” she said of her mastectomy in June. “The possibility of a blood clot is quite high and that’s what they were concerned about, so that’s why they took me in and did extensive tests.”

“I have very few other symptoms now, so I’m hoping it’s just a viral [illness],” she said. “My immune system needs a little bit more love, but I am resting guys, and I also am feeling better. I’m no worse. Yeah, I’m not feeling any worse, and I am resting and I promise I shower.”
