Selena Gomez recalls waking up after surgery

The pop singer recalled that her highs were really high and that her lows were really difficult to deal with and would take her weeks to get back with the day to day life. It was then that she found out that she suffered from mental health issues, which in fact was a relief. She added that identifying those issues and finding the right medication had completely changed her life, however, more health challenges were yet to come as in 2015, Selena Gomez revealed that she was battling lupus. While Selena maintained lupus was a huge thing that had happened to her, interrupting two of her world tours at the time, the kidney transplant she had in 2017 remains the scariest moment of her life as there was the possibility of her dying.
