Cori Broadus has always been transparent about her health journey
Cori Broadus has been very transparent with fans about her ongoing battle with lupus. According to HotNewHipHop, the 23-year-old girl revealed her lupus diagnosis last year. And even explained that she also struggles with high blood pressure.
Broadus shared his battle in an exclusive interview with Essence.
I was diagnosed with lupus at the age of 6. For those who don’t know, it’s an autoimmune disorder in which your organs attack each other. So my immune system is super weak. I [have] hair loss…
Because of this, the Broadus family developed their own line of hair scarves.
Broadus recently revealed her upcoming kidney biopsy to fans
According to The Blast, Broadus revealed that she will be undergoing a kidney biopsy so doctors can check for any abnormalities related to lupus.
The 23-year-old revealed the news via her Instagram Story.
I went for a kidney biopsy today, I’m very scared 😭😭😭 last time I had a biopsy was 7/8…
In the following posts on her account, Broadus promised to keep her fans updated on the process. Unfortunately, the doctors determined that they would have to reschedule the biopsy due to Broadus’s “excessive” blood pressure and heart rate.
…they didn’t want to risk anything so had to reschedule and see a cardiologist.
Broadus received the results of her biopsy
Broadus received his cardiologist’s approval and made an appointment for a new kidney biopsy. According to the source, the 23-year-old shared her anxiety about the procedure with her fans through her Instagram Story.
The mood for my kidney biopsy (part 2) is tomorrow 😭😭😭… But they’re lulling me to sleep, so let’s stop 👍🏾.
After the procedure, Broadus let fans know that “everything is going well.”
She made it! Everything went well, had to lie down for 6 hours to make sure there wasn’t any bleeding or anything
The 23-year-old also clearly shared her results with her fans through her Instagram Story.
Just hung up on my rheumatologist, and here are the results from the biopsy…
Broadus explains that her lupus is stage 3 out of 5. And explains that stage 5 is the most severe stage, and stage 3 is milder. Also, since she’s not at diagnostic stage 4, she should be able to avoid chemotherapy treatment. Moreover, the 23-year-old also knows that the disease is “still in a reversible stage”.
Broadus also shared that her kidneys were “just inflamed”. And she will check her blood pressure every day.
