Avril Lavigne's 30th was a nightmare.
The pop star had jetted off to Las Vegas to party with friends for her birthday last October, but couldn't muster up the energy to do much of anything. As she'd soon find out, it was because she had a "severe" case of Lyme disease, the singer said in a new interview with People.
"I could barely eat, and when we went to the pool, I had to leave and go lie in bed," she told the magazine. "My friends asked, 'What's wrong?' I didn't know."
Shortly after the disappointing trip, the "Here's to Never Growing Up" singer, who'd been feeling lethargic and lightheaded for months, was diagnosed with the infectious disease, which she believes she contracted through a tick bite last spring.
With the help of her mother and her husband, Nickelback frontman Chad Kroeger, Lavigne is recuperating at her home in Ontario, but even that hasn't been easy at times.
"I felt like I couldn't breathe, I couldn't talk and I couldn't move," she told the magazine. "I thought I was dying."
At one point, things were so bad, she couldn't shower for a week because she didn't have the strength to stand. Despite an alarming lack of energy, she has been able to keep up with the outside world and her fans, thanks to social media.
"They were asking about me since I was MIA, so I mentioned to one fan directly that I wasn't feeling good," Lavigne said. "The get-well messages and videos they sent touched me so deeply."
She's not where she wants to be yet, but she told the magazine she's 80 percent there and plans to get back to work on new music soon.
In December, Lavigne took to Twitter to slam rumors that she'd been in rehab.
