Lady Gaga Postpones European Tour Because of Health Issues

USA Today
Lady Gaga's health struggles continue, and now the pop star has been forced to cancel a series of upcoming tour dates.
Gaga and Live Nation issued a joint statement early Monday (September 18) the European dates for her Joanne World Tour. The 31-year-old pop super star has been very public about her struggles with fibromyalgia.
Last week she revealed on Twitter that she was experiencing pain because of her battle with the disease:
Thought ice helped #Fibromyalgia. I was wrong & making it worse. Warm/Heat is better. Electric Heated Blanket, Infrared Sauna, Epsom Baths.

Her fibromyalgia caused such severe pain last week that she was even hospitalized.
I was taken to the hospital its not simply hip pain or wear & tear from tour, I'm in severe pain. I'm in good hands w/ the very best doctors

Mother Monster was scheduled to kick off the European leg of the tour in Barcelona on Thursday (September 21). That set of shows was originally scheduled to close on October 28 in Germany. All of the European dates have been postponed, but Gaga vowed to be back.
The Joanne World Tour is slated to return to the United States with performances scheduled across the country between November 5 and December 18. Those dates, as of now, are still expected to go on as originally scheduled.
In the mean time, the "Poker Face" singer's documentary, which is titled Gaga: Five Foot Two, will premiere on Netflix this Friday (September 22).
We're pulling for you, Gaga!
