The model and member of Hollywood royalty posted about her scary symptoms on Instagram.
“I was sitting at breakfast with my husband when I started having stroke like symptoms,” she wrote.
Dr. Matthew Tenser is a neurosurgeon and professor the University of Southern California. He provided context to what may have happened to the pop star’s wife.
“It sounds like if she was diagnosed with a blood clot in the brain, that sounds like they made the diagnosis of stroke,” Tenser said.
At 25 years old, that’s rare.
Tenser said only about 10% of stroke patients are younger than 50. The “majority of patients are between 70 and 80 years,” Tenser said.
