Ahead of embarking on the Love & Laughter residency withCedric the Entertainerin Las Vegas in 2024,Braxton opened up to PEOPLE about feeling "anxiety"due to her medical condition.

"I've been feeling okay, that's been the anxiety, just making sure I'm ready," she said at the time. "My doctor said I'm ready to go. I got checked off, everything's good, but there is a little anxiety performing and having that health scare. But the man upstairs said it's going to be okay, so I know I'm going to be alright."

Braxton also spoke about taking precautions to manage her health. "You know what? I don't always eat good 'cause I'm a burger girl, so I'm not going to sit here and lie and say, 'Oh, I eat real good.' I try to eat as healthy as I can, especially when I'm working, I try to be disciplined, but I have to have those burgers and things like that," she said.

The mother of two,who's married to rapper Birdman, added, "I just try to pace it. Pacing is very important, and if I feel like I'm overdoing it, I know to take a break. Sometimes it's hard to do that. You don't recognize when you're being stressed a little bit or overdoing it, so I just know to pace it and then everything's fine."
