Jessie J has revealed she’s been rushed to hospital with fluid on her lungs, six weeks after undergoing surgery for breast cancer. 

The singer, 37, has been recovering after following the operation, after revealing the cancer had luckily been caught by doctors ‘early’.

But taking to Instagram Stories on Sunday, Jessie revealed that she had been readmitted to hospital, and has since been told she has an infection.

Posting a picture from her hospital bed, Jessie showed an image of an IV cannula in her hand and confessed that recovering from her surgery has been the ‘most mentally challenging time.’

She mentioned in her post: ‘Here’s how I spent the last 24 hours. 6 weeks after my surgery, and I found myself back in the same ward as before. It was neither expected nor planned.’

She went onto reveal: ‘I had and still have symptoms that pointed towards a blood clot on the lung. IT IS NOT A BLOOD CLOT THANK GOD.

‘They ran a lot tests, which ended up showing I have an infection (still trying to figure out what) and a little fluid on my lungs.

‘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.’

In another post, Jessie expressed: ‘I recognize that others who have experienced this or something similar may have different opinions, and that’s perfectly fine.

‘However, for me, the real difficulty started the day of the surgery. The physical recovery is neither fast nor simple, and mentally, it has been my most challenging time.

‘Especially as a Mum with a toddler and being unable to be the mother I usually am.

‘Having to alter my career plans this year has been frustrating, especially after so much hard work and anticipation. But, such is life, and I understand that.

‘Don’t get me wrong, receiving the all-clear was and is amazing, but it didn’t accelerate or simplify the physical recovery process post-surgery.’

The singer previously admitted she went into ‘survival mode’ upon learning of her cancer diagnosis, but is now letting herself feel angry and sad in equal measure. 

Sharing an Instagram post in June, she wrote: Jessie wrote: ‘2 weeks post surgery. Had my drain out 2 nights ago. She said breathe in and take a hard breathe out. She whipped that thang out so quick. Woii oii. Weirdest feeling. But so nice to have it out after 12 days.

‘Now it’s just me and my wonky boobs trying to figure out how to dress until I match them up. The left one is looking at me like ‘you ok babe?”.

She continued: ‘Also my experience was when I was diagnosed I went into survival mode.

‘There was so much going on with appointments and in my mind esp with a toddler I had just moved and was about to start this campaign after 8 years away. Mad.

‘I didn’t really have a lot of time to process what was happening or what was going to happen. So I’m currently experiencing some delayed sadness and frustration by having time to process what IS happening.

‘A little disappointed in myself I didn’t say goodbye to my old boob enough. Sounds silly but that’s where I’m at. Again that’s my journey. I’m sure others feel different.

‘But for me I didn’t think beyond the surgery. I was just being strong. Well now I’m here and letting myself be angry and sad and all the things. Just for a few days.

‘Then I will sew some padding in a bra to even them out order some t-shirts and crack tf on’.

Jessie previously confirmed that she is not cancer free, a day after posting her hopes to be rid of the disease. 

The singer said last month that her previous post had been ‘misunderstood’ and while she was ‘praying’ for good news, the cancer at present had unfortunately not ‘all gone’.

Jessie went on to say that she was awaiting test results and would be taking a week’s break from social media in order to ‘focus on her recovery’. 

Speaking about the misunderstanding she wrote: ‘I posted a list of pros and cons of having breast cancer surgery. The first pro I put was… the cancer has all gone’.

‘This was a positive affirmation NOT a fact. I don’t have my results yet. I added the [fingers crossed emoji] in thinking people would understand and clearly a lot didn’t.

She went on: ‘A weird situation. My fault for not being clearer. But for now I do not have my results after surgery which was only 6 nights ago. I pray it will be true soon but the journey of cancer isn’t that simple unfortunately’. 

Later Jessie said: ‘Tapping off socials for a week. Healthy and needed reset. To focus on my recovery and saying stuff that gets twisted of misread’.

‘My head and boob hurts. Lol, Bye. Always loveeeee’. 

The mix up came after she shared a health update on Instagram on Thursday which read: ‘Pros: Cancer has all gone.’

She added that her mastectomy and breast reconstruction surgery had gone well as she quipped: ‘My nipple is where it used to be.’

Continuing her list of pros, Jessie wrote: ‘I can watch Love Island with no guilt. I am getting to rest and talk to friends more than ever.’ 

She added that her partner Chanan Safir Colman and their son Sky have been providing support as well as her mother.

‘My mum lives with us. Sky just being Sky. Chanan making me feel safe and the messages are 10/10.’

‘Connecting with other people who are going through a similar time and being able to support each other.’

Later Jessie confirmed that while she had written the ‘cancer is gone’ she included a fingers crossed emoji as ‘it’s a hope not a fact’. 

She added: ‘I only had my surgery 4 days ago. I was just saying the pros of surgery and this situation and being positive. 

‘But I will get my results soon. And hopefully I can post that as a fact. But for now I don’t know. But I will stay positive and talk what I want into the universe’. 

Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers in the world and affects more than two MILLION women a year

Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers in the world. Each year in the UK there are more than 55,000 new cases, and the disease claims the lives of 11,500 women. In the US, it strikes 266,000 each year and kills 40,000. But what causes it and how can it be treated?

What is breast cancer?

It comes from a cancerous cell which develops in the lining of a duct or lobule in one of the breasts.

When the breast cancer has spread into surrounding tissue it is called ‘invasive’. Some people are diagnosed with ‘carcinoma in situ’, where no cancer cells have grown beyond the duct or lobule.

Most cases develop in those over the age of 50 but younger women are sometimes affected. Breast cancer can develop in men, though this is rare.

Staging indicates how big the cancer is and whether it has spread. Stage 1 is the earliest stage and stage 4 means the cancer has spread to another part of the body.

The cancerous cells are graded from low, which means a slow growth, to high, which is fast-growing. High-grade cancers are more likely to come back after they have first been treated.

What causes breast cancer?

A cancerous tumour starts from one abnormal cell. The exact reason why a cell becomes cancerous is unclear. It is thought that something damages or alters certain genes in the cell. This makes the cell abnormal and multiply ‘out of control’.

Although breast cancer can develop for no apparent reason, there are some risk factors that can increase the chance, such as genetics.

What are the symptoms of breast cancer?

The usual first symptom is a painless lump in the breast, although most are not cancerous and are fluid filled cysts, which are benign. 

The first place that breast cancer usually spreads to is the lymph nodes in the armpit. If this occurs you will develop a swelling or lump in an armpit.

How is breast cancer diagnosed?

  • Initial assessment: A doctor examines the breasts and armpits. They may do tests such as a mammography, a special x-ray of the breast tissue which can indicate the possibility of tumours.
  • Biopsy: A biopsy is when a small sample of tissue is removed from a part of the body. The sample is then examined under a microscope to look for abnormal cells. The sample can confirm or rule out cancer.

If you are confirmed to have breast cancer, further tests may be needed to assess if it has spread. For example, blood tests, an ultrasound scan of the liver or a chest X-ray.

How is breast cancer treated?

Treatment options which may be considered include surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy and hormone treatment. Often a combination of two or more of these treatments are used.

  • Surgery: Breast-conserving surgery or the removal of the affected breast depending on the size of the tumour.
  • Radiotherapy: A treatment which uses high energy beams of radiation focused on cancerous tissue. This kills cancer cells, or stops them from multiplying. It is mainly used in addition to surgery.
  • Chemotherapy: A treatment of cancer by using anti-cancer drugs which kill cancer cells, or stop them from multiplying.
  • Hormone treatments: Some types of breast cancer are affected by the ‘female’ hormone oestrogen, which can stimulate the cancer cells to divide and multiply. Treatments which reduce the level of these hormones, or prevent them from working, are commonly used in people with breast cancer.

How successful is treatment?

The outlook is best in those who are diagnosed when the cancer is still small, and has not spread. Surgical removal of a tumour in an early stage may then give a good chance of cure.

The routine mammography offered to women between the ages of 50 and 71 means more breast cancers are being diagnosed and treated at an early stage.
