Iggy Azalea updated fans on her surgery to relieve her back pain. 

Via Twitter, the Australian rapper shared she was unable to walk for three days after complications. Iggy said, “It didn’t end up being very mundane because I had complications with my recovery & ended up in bed hooked up to a million machines and in so much pain there are about 3 days I actually just can’t remember at all.”

She continued, “I didn’t walk except to use the bathroom (a whole other ordeal lol) for 3 weeks & you’d be shocked to know how weak you can get when you don’t actually move. It happens really fast.” 

The “Fancy” rapper revealed, “It’s been very mentally challenging to suddenly not be able to do anything for yourself and have no answers about when you will recover. That was the hardest part, but all the Drs have been so happy with how quickly I’m getting better now that I’m back moving & walking.”

Iggy shared she’s “50 % recovered.” She’s not able to fly, but she’s working on her road to recovery. Wishing her a speedy healing.
