Carly Pearce has a heart condition that may affect how she performs at upcoming live shows.
The "We Don't Fight Anymore" singer shared an update on her recent health concerns in a social media clip, and told fans that things have taken a more serious turn as of late.
"Hey ya'll I have always been transparent and honest about every part of my life, so I feel like this deserves the same honesty," Pearce said on Instagram Thursday.
"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."
Pericarditis is swelling and irritation of the thin tissue surrounding the heart, according to the Mayo Clinic. The tissue is called the pericardium. Pericarditis often causes sharp chest pain.
"I've been working with doctors and talking to my cardiologist and 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 am healing to alter my shows a little bit," she said.

"So, if my shows look a little bit different, just know it's because I have to keep my heart rate under control right now and that doesn't mean that I'm not gonna be completely fine, it just means right now I've gotta really take this seriously," Pearce said.

"It's such a joy for me, I'm a ‘90s country fan through and through, I grew up on ’90s country, so to be able to be on tour with one of the pioneers… and he is the sweetest, kindest, most humble, genuine person."
