The 40-year-old singer-songwriter had performed with the Dead & Company as recently as Sunday. Mayer was active on social media Monday night, tweeting an apology to a Huffington Post writer after he incorrectly stated that correct style was to write out "number two" in headlines.
Mayer dealt with another health scare in 2013 when he had to have surgery and injections to treat a growth called a granuloma on his vocal cords.
