Selena has been living with lupus, an autoimmune disease, for more than a decade. Over the years, she’s gotten candid about her experience with the chronic illness, from undergoing a kidney transplant and chemotherapy to how it’s impacted her mental health.

Ahead, here’s everything Selena has shared about her lupus diagnosis and health journey:While Selena may be the first person you think of with this health condition, 1.5 million Americans, and at least five million people worldwide, have a form of lupus, The Lupus Foundation of America estimates.

Selena was diagnosed with lupus in 2013.

I could’ve had a stroke,” she told the publication of her time spent out of the spotlight (which sparked rumors about her being admitted to a rehabilitation facility for addiction). “I wanted so badly to say, ‘You guys have no idea. I’m in chemotherapy… I locked myself away until I was confident and comfortable again.”
