The singer has kept up with sharing every stage of her journey of trying to get better and has done so with an optimistic attitude. Her perseverance serves as a source of inspiration for those facing similar struggles.
She took to her Instagram story to post a picture of a notepad titled blood pressure, which contained daily readings from February 27 to March 5. Alongside the image, she wrote, “Last week blood pressure 🤞🏿. I’ll give you guys the secret formula soon, I just need to make sure that I’m giving the right info.”
This is good news and might be signaling the end of the numerous health visits she has had to do since she was little. Fans will recall that some time ago last month, her health challenges did not seem to be easing its hold on her.
The Blast noted that even though Broadus knew that she could be judged just for being honest, she went ahead to express her fear. The “Trouble” singer shared a picture of a cartoon character looking apprehensive on her Instagram Story, indicating she was probably anxious.
The text she wrote beside the image confirmed this, “I get a kidney biopsy today. I’m so scared 😭😭😭 last time I got one, I was like 7/8.” She rested her head on her fiancé Wayne Deuce’s shoulder in the following slide while wearing a nose mask.
Another snap showed her making a peace sign while lying on a hospital bed and wearing a hospital gown and head covering. She then assured her fans that she would keep them informed.
Following those updates about her kidney biopsy, the 23-year-old revealed that she could not undergo the procedure as planned due to her high blood pressure and heart rate. The model explained to her fans that the medical team did not want to take any risks and recommended that she see a cardiologist.
Noting that once she received clearance from the cardiologist, they would reschedule the appointment and have it done under anesthesia. According to Broadus in a subsequent video, her high blood pressure and heart rate might have been caused by dehydration and nervousness, which her doctors suspect triggered her condition.

The star has been candid about her ongoing lupus and high blood pressure battles. She shared via social media that her kidney inflammation was reversible, providing hope for her continuing treatment and recovery.
Earlier, she had visited the hospital for a biopsy involving taking out a small piece of tissue from the kidney to inspect for any abnormalities or illnesses properly. After going through that, The Blast reported that the procedure seemed to have gone well judging by the update she posted.
She shared an image of the result from her notes app, writing, “Just got off the phone w my rheumatologist, and these are the results from the biopsy.” The note indicated that her health was at stage 3 out of 5, with 5 being the worst and 3 being mild but still active.
She did not require chemotherapy because her condition had not progressed to stage 4. Broadus noted that the doctors suggested administering Benlysta, a treatment option through a monthly shot or weekly injection.
The 23-year-old then revealed that her current situation was still in a reversible stage and that in the past, she had been at stage 4, which is why her doctors were treating her aggressively to ensure her safety.
The “Daddy’s Girl” singer concluded by mentioning that although her kidneys were inflamed, they were still functioning. She noted that she would continue taking Cell Cept and monitor her blood pressure daily.
Happy with the results, she posted a picture of herself wearing a blue workout set outdoors. She explained that despite her health struggles, she remained committed to her fitness routine and captioned the snap, “Slowly but surely getting there 😭 on vacation and still putting the work in.”
