Carly Pearce diagnosed, with heart condition. Taking to Instagram on Wednesday, the Every Little Thing singer posted a video in which she shared that she has been dealing with some health problems recently. "I have always been transparent and honest about every part of my life, so I feel like this deserves the same honesty. You guys know that I've been dealing with some health issues and through that, I have developed something called pericarditis, which is a heart issue.", Carly Pearce / Instagram. Pericarditis is inflammation of the lining around the heart. The main symptom is chest pain. Carly, who is under the care of doctors and a cardiologist, went on to note that she plans to continue performing but will be making some alterations to her upcoming shows. "I still want to be out on the road, it's really important to me but we have all decided that it is in my best interest as I'm healing to alter my shows a little bit," the 34-year-old continued. "So, if my shows look a little different, just know it's because I have to keep my heart rate under control right now. That doesn't mean that I'm not gonna be completely fine, it just means that right now I've got to really take this seriously.", Carly Pearce / Instagram. Elsewhere in the clip, Carly urged followers to make an appointment with their doctor if they were concerned about their health for any reason. "I'm a young healthy person that really watches what I eat and exercises and this happened to me. So I just want to use my platform to tell you to take care of your body and listen to it and just know that if it's trying to tell you something it's gonna tell you.", Carly Pearce / Instagram.
