    Jessie J's cancer has "all gone"

    The 37-year-old pop star announced earlier this month that she'd been diagnosed with breast cancer, and after undergoing surgery earlier this week, the Price Tag hitmaker - who has two-year-old son Sky with partner Chanan Colman - has offered a candid list of the current pros and cons in her life.


    She wrote: "Pros: Cancer has all gone.

    "My nipple is where it used to be.

    "I can watch Love Island with no guilt. I am getting to rest and talk to friends more than ever.

    "My mum lives with us. Sky just being Sky. Chanan making me feel safe and the messages are 10/10.

    "Connecting with other people who are going through a similar time and being able to support each other.(sic)"

    Jessie then detailed a list of cons, which were "very honest" though she admitted some were "silly".

    She wrote: "[I miss] not being able to be the mum I'm used to being and not picking sky up or the person I'm used to being tbh. I don't sit down ever. lol.

    "The fear of not knowing if the cancer is all gone - the mental with this is [face in clouds emoji].

    "The pain and discomfort is ok and expected but a d**khead when I'm trying to sleep. Sneezing is a myth - that hurts.(sic)"

    The Domino singer has been struggling with constipation as a side effect of the medication she has been taking and appealed to her fans to share tips with her.

    She wrote: "Not pooing from the anaesthetic and the painkillers I just wanna pooooooo.

    "Since my surgery I have only been on paracetamol and ibuprofen because my blood pressure is too low for anything stronger and even they have got be backed up like [an] old chimney.

    "I have had laxatives, a good fresh diet, prunes, juices and your girl is 20% leg and 80% [poo emoji]. Any suggestions welcomed.(sic)"

    Jessie first shared news of her cancer diagnosis via an Instagram post on 3 June.

    The singer admitted at the time that she had been "going back and forth" over whether to share the news with the public.

    She said in a video message: "I want to share it with my fans and the people that care about me, and also I'm a sharer. I've always shared everything that I go through in my life. Before No Secrets came out, I was diagnosed with early breast cancer.

    "I'm highlighting the word early. Cancer sucks in any form, but I'm holding on to the word early. I have been in and out of tests throughout this whole period."

    Jessie admitted at the time that she was still trying to process the news herself. However, she ultimately felt it was important that she shared the news with her fans.

    She said: "I'm not processing it because I'm working so hard. I also know how much sharing in the past has helped me with other people giving me their love and support and also their own stories."
