What diseases does Halsey have? Singer reveals they were hospitalized after a seizure

Halsey, the acclaimed singer-songwriter known for hits like Be Kind, recently shared a health update with fans following a hospitalization after experiencing a seizure. The incident has raised concerns among their followers, prompting Halsey to be transparent about their ongoing health challenges and illnesses.

In June 2024, they publicly shared that they had been diagnosed with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), an autoimmune disease where the body’s immune system attacks its own tissues. They were also diagnosed with a rare condition known as T-cell lymphoproliferative disorder, where white blood cells multiply uncontrollably, leading to health issues.

The singer's health journey has included various other diagnoses, including bipolar disorder, endometriosis, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS), Sjögren’s syndrome, and mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS).

On September 25, 2024, the singer, who uses she/they pronouns, posted a video on Instagram from a hospital bed, where they were accompanied by fiancé Avan Jogia.

"Happy Late Bi Visibility Day. This year I’m celebrating by dying with a man by my side (for legal reasons that’s a joke)," they wrote.

In the video, Halsey is seen with an IV in their arm, flashing a peace sign while expressing their disappointment about plans for the day being disrupted.

This incident follows the singer's previous revelations about their health struggles. In June 2024, through a public post on social media, the singer disclosed their diagnosis of systemic lupus erythematosus, a chronic autoimmune disease, along with a rare condition known as T-cell lymphoproliferative disorder.

Both conditions can significantly impact one’s quality of life.

In the post, the singer explained that they were currently managing these diseases.

"In 2022, I was first diagnosed with Lupus SLE and then a rare T-cell lymphoproliferative disorder. Both of which are currently being managed or in remission; and both of which I will likely have for the duration of my life," they stated.
