what rare disease does selena gomez have

Selena Gomez has lupus, an autoimmune disease that causes chronic inflammation in many parts of the body, like the skin, joints, heart, liver, and kidneys. Lupus is most common in women aged 15 to 45, and there is no cure. Selena revealed her battle with the disease back in 2015 and underwent a kidney transplant as a result of lupus in 2017. She has been open about her condition and how it affects her physically and emotionally. Selena has also undergone chemotherapy for lupus. In addition to lupus, Selena has been diagnosed with "lupus myositis rheumatoid overlap," which causes inflammation in the joints.
