    Jessie J is feeling "positive and grateful" following her breast cancer surgery, but she is "missing being an active mum" and has stopped taking pain medication

    The 37-year-old singer - who has two-year-old son Sky with partner Chanan Colman - went under the knife 12 days ago, after revealing last month she had been diagnosed with breast cancer.


    In a new update, the Price Tag singer revealed she has stopped taking pain meds because they are "not [her] thing".

    She wrote in an Instagram Story post on Tuesday evening (01.07.25): "For those asking for a health update. l am 11 days post surgery. I'm good.

    "Missing being an active Mum / human the most. But it's been nice to slow down and Sky is having a blast with Nanny and Grandad.

    "It's still uncomfortable / a little painful but l can handle that. I'm doing my exercises and taking all the healthy things. I have been trying to eat super clean.

    "I have stopped all pain meds. Just not my thing. Also like to feel how it feels so I don't overdo it.

    "I have now done a [poo emoji]. Still have my drain. Anyone else who has had this, did you feel like you are walking around one of those dog / duck toys

    "I carry mine on the floor when I'm home so the gravity can help the drain. Hoping it's out by the end of the week. I am feeling positive and grateful."

    Jessie also warned fans she is feeling "a little out of it" still, in case they see her out and about.

    In another post, she shared: "If you do see me out, sitting in a park or coming out of a doctors appointment or eating or walking or anything, and I am seem a little out of it. I am.

    "It's not personal. I don't have what l usually have to give energy wise, understandably.

    "I will get there. It's a slow road. For now l am taking it easy. Enjoying the slow vibes and staying positive.

    "Lots of love"

    Jessie also posted an inspirational quote, which read: "Before you go to bed tonight, remember every little thing that went right. Every tiny victory and each moment that made you smile."

    Last week, Jessie admitted she doesn't know whether she is cancer-free following her surgery.

    She wrote: "You have misunderstood my post. I posted a list of pros and cons of having breast cancer surgery. The first pro I put was... The cancer has all gone. This was a positive affirmation NOT a fact.

    "I don't have my results yet. I added the [fingers-crossed] emoji in thinking people would understand and clearly a lot didn't. A weird situation. My fault for not being clearer. But for now I do not have my results after surgery which was only 6 nights ago. I pray it will be true soon but the journey of cancer isn't that simple unfortunately. (sic)"
