Peeing in a cup is the easiest thing to do if it gives her lupus and kidney health an advantage. The 55-year-old R&B veteran tells People she had to have emergency heart surgery as a result of an 80% blockage in her coronary artery. She kept putting off tests until her doctor became very persistent. The specialized test showed some heart abnormalities which meant a coronary stent was needed. Her chest was aching often, so the signs were definitely there. Doctors told her she could have had a massive (and fatal) heart attack. She urges others with lupus to get regular screenings, bringing to light that Black and Asian women are four times more likely to develop lupus nephritis with the risk of death being three times greater for people with it. Toni was diagnosed with systemic lupus erythematosus in 2008. Moral of the story, don't ignore the signs and have those regular blood and urine tests.
Prayers up to Ms. Braxton.

It is such joyful news to see day by day that heart transplant hospitals are increasing. Due to this reason, many patients who are not in a condition to travel are also getting treatments. Hospitals with heart transplant overseas are truly becoming the heroes of this era.
